With Stewart coming in, this makes sense for her. I wish her the best of luck.

 

[HuskyNan]

Best of luck to Michala. I hope she finds what she's looking for at Wisconsin.

 

[bschwartz]

Sorry to see her go, but it is probably a good move for her. Hopefully she will have a better shot at playing time. Wisconsin has a really great campus. Best of luck.

Good for Michala, though I'm sure her teammates will miss her. She'll have a chance to play and play with her sister. UW is a great school, Madison is a great college town and she'll be within 2 hours of her home near Chicago.

Cool that she will get to play with her sister! I think she has a lot to offer any school.

So, as we have said on this board, when posters questions why players stay when they don't play......If they want to transfer they will.

Good luck to Michala. A really sweet kid. Wisconsin has a good one coming.

Sounds like a good move for her. More playing time, playing with her sister, closer to home.

 

[sarals24]

So wow...only Bria, Stef and Engeln from that class left. Show the benefits (and drawbacks) of big recruiting classes...good to have more players for practice, etc, but might lead to unhappiness over minutes. Three or four is a good number, IMO.

Its tuff to see her go. We were all sky high on her until the injuries. I think shes making the right move for herself.

 

[pap49cba]

It's a good move for her but I will be sorry to see her go. Seemed like a great kid and very popular teammate. Always had a smile on her face.

Fantastic for her!! [speculation deleted - JS]

Ok...I think the transfer talk should be limited to what we know, not what we think. [ ]? I don't think so.

You're right I thought is was a discussion board, not the Britannica or Wiki.

You're right I thought is was a discussion board, not the Britannica or Wiki.

From the Boneyard rules posted at the top of the board.

"Don't start transfer talk. Comments like "She should consider transferring" really add nothing to the board. Experience with transfer talk in the past has proven that the threads generally turn into arguments, name-calling and, frequently, harmful speculation. Therefore, speculating on transfers is not allowed on the Boneyard."

Johnson was mentioned by Hoopgurlz in tweets. Valid for discussion. You added someone else. This is speculation and against the rules.

 

[sarals24]

I think that falls under speculation.

Doggie what are you talking about, I said, "And would not be surprised . . . Are you sure you are attacking the right person here? Are you saying it is against the rules to have emotion now too?

I'm not attacking at all. Don't be so sensative. It appears to me that you are speculating that [ ] would transfer. It's against the rules to do so.

I'll leave it to the mods to decide.

Doggie what are you talking about, I said, "And would not be surprised . . . Are you saying it is against the rules to have emotion now too?

Frank...unfounded conjecture concerning transfer is not acceptable here(my understanding)...house rules. Your emotional state is irrelevant.

 

[LesMis89]

Best of luck to Michala. UW is getting a great young woman.

Doggie what are you talking about, I said, "And would not be surprised . . .

Frank, doggy is right; to even mention another player possibly transfering is pure speculation on your part and shouldn't be discussed at this time.

 

[JimGunther]

Hate to see nice kids leave - But all we get is nice kids.

As others have said, the Badgers are getting a sweet (not a honey badger but, nice) young woman.
I expect she'll get some good minutes.

I see what you mean now....I thought you were misquoting me.....fair enough.....all is good.

 

[UConnCat]

In fairness, my post about [ ] was speculation as well as it came not from Hansen but from someone who replied to Hansen.

Truth is, we don't even have confirmation of the news about Michala. It would be wise for all, myself included, to cool the talk until we hear news from those who know.

I think it's a smart move for her and very best of luck. I expect she'll be starting and getting all the minutes she can handle.

Most of all, congrats for having the character and loyalty to stick it out until after the season ended.
