Message: [QUOTE="willtalk, post: 4586282, member: 1220"] I always felt Shoni was the wrong role model. Jude was a far better role model for young native amaricans. She had to grow up in Shoni's shadow and that turned out far better for her.she did not possess Shonis natural talent and had to work to develop her skills. Shoni was fairly enduged during high school. She jumped from school to school and that lost her many of the top offers from high level college schools. She was actually enduged at Louisville as well. I feel the people around her failed her by not holding her accountable and instead catering to her ever whim. It finally caught up to her in the WNBA. She should have gone to a program with a coach that would hold her accountable, like UConn, Stanford or Tenn. She needed to work on improving instead of relying on he natural abilities. [/QUOTE]
