A little note on Kiah

[UcMiami]

I found this quote to be interesting from Kiah (in the Sipple column from Nan's links)

"He pushes you so hard," said junior center Kiah Stokes. "Sometimes he gets under your skin so much, you just want to … you almost want to hit him. I know you can't. He just wants the best for you. I definitely wouldn't trade him for the world. He's a great guy on and off the court."

So I wonder if she is going to transfer after this season!

Geno only pushes the kids to do what he knows they can do. And Kiah has about an much talent as anyone not named Stewie. When Kiah plays hard and confidently, she's really, really good.

You don't get sarcasm, even with 6 different emoticons?

She is talented but not KML talented.

She is talented but not KML talented.

Maybe not, but she has the build that the entire team envies and can do things that K cannot.

We had a number of threads last year and the year before that wondered if Kiah would be transferring because she wasn't getting enough playing time. The six emoticons were an indication this was said sarcastically referring back to those threads.

Thanks for passing along. This quote captures so much about Geno and how his obsession with excellence, his biting sarcasm, and his love for his players all fit together.

Great quote from Kiah. It tells you one thing. It's not easy having someone mold you into greatness. It takes work to be Great. Just It cant be handed to you. You have to work for it. Hard work is what made this country so great. I wish we would get back to those basics. Geno an Immigrant has those values.

And a really solid game from her today. Offense doesn't look as smooth, but defensively she's terrific, and rebounding even better.

 

[ChicagoGG]

She made a nice basket at the half to keep us from going into the break on the bad side of the scores....Good for her!

 

[PalPa]

Maybe not, but she has the build that the entire team envies and can do things that K cannot.

If she drives to the basket would anyone be willing to jump out and take a charge?

Go Kiah!!!
