She said she’s ready. She indicated that her career path has prepared her for this unique opportunity. The time (and nurturing) she spent with Pat, the time and experiences she had during her 13 years in the WNBA USA basketball, culminating with time time she spent with Brad Stevens, along with the coaches and players of the Celtics organization that she said was "the greatest" team in the NBA. She said she has spoken to Duke men’s coach K twice already. He welcomed her and said he would be there for if she had any questions or could be of any assistance. [B]She said she’s already been contacting potential recruits and their parents along with some coaches.[/B] She said she absolutely knows the value of quality recruits to any program. She said she knows what needs to be done. She gave no indication that she has picked a staff yet, but that does not mean she has not already picked them. She said she can't wait to get to work. :cool: [/QUOTE]
