Message: [QUOTE="Bone Dog, post: 4592215, member: 12088"] I agree with much of what you say. I also feel bad about Texas. They lost a lot with Aaliyah Moore. I hope she comes back even stronger next year. Most of the transfers seemed like disappointments, to me, though they were probably necessary as a stopgap. Only Taylor Jones really looks like a keeper to me, if she can stay healthy. I like her post game -- simple, direct and quick, and an excellent shot blocker. And I hope Muhammad and Mwenentanda really get a chance to develop. A lot of potential there. And I think you're right about Rori. Either it was the injury -- maybe she never fully recovered -- or it was the incoherence of the team she was left with in the second half, but she didn't seem nearly as dominant as last year. If they can return Moore, Jones, Muhammad, Mwenentanda, and Harmon all healthy, that's a tremendous core of talent. I'm also surprised by Coleman's remark about Indiana. I think she's dead wrong. They were an excellent team, and Terri Moren did a better job of unifying her transfers than any other D1 coach. The only thing limiting them was Holmes' knee. I look for great things from them next year, too. Losing Berger will hurt, but if Scalia returns, this may be her moment to step up and lead a team. She has the talent and the personality for it.
