Message: [QUOTE="Gamecockfan77, post: 3957774, member: 6414"] Rickea Jackson has to be a star for it to go well for Miss State next year. To me, that's the whole question. I'm not in a position to say what exactly the problem was for her other than to say taking more threes didn't go well last year. Whether that's because she didn't have a great offseason or that's not in her true skill set, I'm not sure. Taylor and Carter seemed to do fine offensively under Nikki. I'm not sure if all the Hayes sisters are not more of a headache than help, but there is certainly more scoring there than Miss State had in the losses. I don't think Mutharu, Wiggins, and Mingo-Young are particularly worth worrying about. Add the Tulane transfer to Hayes and the guard group is probably better. Morris is just a bench big and Cooks arguably isn't much more than that though she is a starting caliber player if not at all a star. Madison Hayes hadn't done much yet, but to me is easily the only major long term transfer casualty. I feel like there is pressure on Miss State to improve, but they aren't necessarily in a worse place than they already were. [/QUOTE]
