I was just rewatching part of the NC game. I noticed Eckmark celebrating and seeming to enjoy her teammates. As we know, she later chose to transfer. I imagine most of us believe that she was looking for more playing time.
What would you have done? Would you continue in a top program with the best coaches, knowing you will likely only get mop up minutes? Or if you were an end-of-the-bench player before last year when UConn was such a heavy favorite - stay or go?
For myself, I think I would likely transfer. Certainly if I hadn't gotten meaningful minutes after my Junior year(and maybe after Sophomore), I would want to go where I could live out my dream of actually playing D1 BB in games. Just being on the NC team wouldn't be enough if I wasn't contributing in games. Others feel that contributing during practice and as a teammate on a great team would be enough. What about you?
