At this point, I've completely come to grips with all the upheaval in the portal. The landscape is now reminiscent of going to the playground, and the courts are packed. You try to connect with the strongest 4 players that you can so you can win and stay on the court. If you lose, you're looking around to see who you can run with next time to have a better chance of winning your next run. .....and on and on.
Sad to see Mya and Lisa go. They both came in with a lot of potential. Also sad that Kiyomi didn't work out. That said, ....Mya and Lisa have to feel blessed that they had a HECKUVAn opportunity while here at RU. All who've been on this roster over the last three years, with the exception of Destiny, Kaylene, and Kiyomi, were blessed with an opportunity to play arguably the toughest conference in women's basketball, against many of the best players in the country. No other team in a conference of this level would have provided a more clear path for minutes than they got here at RU.
Maybe a change of scenery is best for all of these transfers.... incoming and outgoing. Hopefully Lisa and Mya can strengthen their bodies to take their games to the next level. They flirted with it while here but never got there. Hard to say whether the fault lies more with the coaches, the players themselves, or nagging injuries, in regard to lack of development.
Tbh...... I think the new point guard from BC would have been a big help for both Mya and Lisa to flourish as scoring 2-guards.
