Just listened to the youtube posted here. This is one heartbroken fan I must say, and I do empathize with her. Shekinna's disappearences are a mystery, but if I try to walk in her shoes, I would say this:
I, too am fresh off a loss of a loved one, a very young loved one who was too young to die. I know the shock, the grief, and the depression, and what those can take out of you and effect your day, every day. I struggle every day with this, and it is hard work sometimes just to get motivated enough to get out the door. But I am a fighter, I will be ok. Perhaps (and this is just my theory)Pat's illness has really hit this girl hard, and she might be dealing with these swings of strong emotion. I don't know, I am guessing, but this may be why she has changed so much this year.
I also agree that Glory Johnson plays her heart out each and every game, and IMO I think that it is torture for her to have to sit in the post game pressers and talk about what happened and what they need to do to get the W. She is a raw talent and I have seen improvement in her game during the couple of since I watched her as a freshman,and I don't think that I have ever seen her not working hard (making mistakes, yes, but who doesn't) and giveing her all.
The girls on that team do need an emotional leader. I just wonder if anyone will step up and take the reins. It will be a different team if they do.
