Message: [QUOTE="oldhusky, post: 5340513, member: 9844"] Maybe, but perhaps a bigger question might be would Brondello want Dallas. In most years a coach with her credentials and track record would not be available. With expansion and a potentially attractive gig in Seattle, she likely will have more than one suitor. Not just teams with an open position, but every team were the coach's position is not that secure. Paige is an obvious draw, but Dallas doesn't draw that well, and IMO the only other major building block for the future is Maddie. On the other hand, this free agency period will be unlike any other previously, and with a new star in Paige and potentially a headliner coach, it is not out of the question that Dallas could add not just one major star, but maybe a couple and be an above average team pretty quickly. Their focus should be on the best free agents that still have a few prime years left. The later stage ring chasers will probably pursue teams that are serious contenders right now. The Arike situation will be difficult for them as well. She has been the face of that franchise, but they are likely better off letting her walk now. [/QUOTE]
