Z's Early Departure Surprised Geno, She Admits

[DaddyChoc]

No, DC, and that's exactly my point. She left because her and her advisers thought the timing was right for her. They were correct.

were you expecting her to play 2 yrs when she signed with Geno?

Yes, but I'm not sure why that's relevant.

Geno didn't bother for a waiver because she needed that year to become a husky i.e. learn how Geno's offense and defense is played. I question whether that year may be helpful to unlearn Holly for Westbrook, at times Holly's teams looked like the players were running the show that doesn't work with Geno.

I'm not so sure about that. Not saying you are incorrect, but I recall Geno saying something along the lines of "we don't spend much time with the kids who are red shirting because they aren't going to be able to play this year". It was one of the reasons Azura got off to a slow start when she finally was eligible to play...

I'm not saying the kids who are redshirting don't get coached up - I"m sure they do, but when it comes time to teach the kids plays in practice etc, I'm not sure how much focus is actually given to the redshirted kids...
