Message: [QUOTE="Stymie, post: 4050038, member: 11176"] I find this thread very interesting, but only felt the need to post after viewing the clip of the facilities. And Nika is the tie in. I believe the feed in to her tenacity and dogged determination is the fact that she knows that she is in woman’s college basketball heaven. I’m sure, in her early playing years, she could never imagine playing and training is such a magnificent venue. Playing in a beautiful arena. Coached by the best. Quality education. Safe environment. Treated royally. Unlike many of her teammates, she was probably not tracked and recruited for 3-4 years prior to her decision. I think she knows better than most the gifts she has been visited with and realizes that her end of the equation in to not take a nanosecond off. I am in no way diminishing the commitment of her teammates- I just believe she has a different perspective on this opportunity and where she now finds herself. Every time she sets foot on the court- she is jets on and doesn’t require a slogan to remind her. JMHO [/QUOTE]
