He pulled her aside after the game and told her it wasn’t personal. That her time was coming. That he believed in her. “I feel like he really means it when it comes to him apologizing,” Samuels said. “He'll make up for things and he’ll finally trust us.” ... “Q’s dying to play. She’s like a caged lion in there. She’s just fidgeting on the bench all the time. She wants to get in and play. And I thought she was scrappy,”[/I][/INDENT] [INDENT][I][/I][/INDENT] [INDENT][I]“A year ago, I was not playing, horribly out of shape, and fast forward a year later, I'm playing big minutes in a game like this,” Brady said. “Yeah, God is good. And I'm so thankful to be here. Especially to do it with these people. This coaching staff and this group. It means everything.” Exponential pressures were placed on Brady this fall even before her first collegiate game. Because of injuries, she was now Aaliyah Edwards’ backup. A big shoe to fill for anyone, let alone someone yet to have played a collegiate game.[/I][/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
