Message: [QUOTE="willtalk, post: 2739279, member: 1220"] Using E. Williams as an example is not really fair. She played her best college ball as a freshman until she developed a stress fracture at the end of the season. It was obvious her play was subpar her second season. Even after the recovery time passed it just seemed that her effort was lacking. That can partially be attributed to the recovery time necessary for stress fractures. The main thing is that requires a lot of inactivity to heal. It seemed she never got her game back until the end of her Senior season. Her freshman season was her best. I seemed she lost her focus on basketball during her recovery time. Being a professional and not having to deal with premed classes and being able to focus on basketball alone might have made a difference as well. There are a lot of factors that play into when and how a player develops that have little to do with coaching. Injuries and health being a major factor. [/QUOTE]
