Message: [QUOTE="Dillon77, post: 5307672, member: 6620"] Hell's bells! That was five (long) years ago. As one of the longer-standing posters who are affiliated with ND in some capacity (either as an alum and/or one who follows them closely), I don't think there were a lot of true fans that were hoping MM would hang up her heels ;). However, that fashion statement, tough instruction and love and the modified Princton offense have moved on. Something that I hope new GM Pat Garrity will bring (back) to the mix is a willingness to develop (some) players over the course of a few years, which used to be a staple of many Muffet McGraw teams. Coach Ivey seems be aiming high, higher, highest for her high school recruits and certainly should be in many instances (see Citron, Miles, Hidlago, etc.). But there should also be another level of recruit that shows promise and a desire and willingness to "be there" at ND, which would behoove the team in this day of the portal. [/QUOTE]
