DaBulls99 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Nah. As far as I’ve heard she doesn’t mention Buffalo at all…ever. Best of luck to her, but she’s not #ForeverABull Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best of luck to her, but she’s not #ForeverABull Sadly, you are right. This is a perfect example of players go for the coach, not the school. Not always the case, but many times the case. This will be interesting both ways. WNBA is chocked full of talent and players on the larger end. I'm wondering if DF will be able to compete at that level given her stature. I know she has played against bigger teams her entire career, but most in the NCAA don't have the honed skills of grown women that are 6'2"+ packing rosters. With on'y 12 roster spots, you can't really afford to keep players that may be considered a project. Will also be interesting for FLJ. She has 4 women in the portal so far (including McEvans) and will no longer have Fair to lean on as she has for 5 seasons. Wooley is a solid player, but I don't see her taking over that role. Not sure what recruits she has coming in, but I would be surprised if they maintained the same level next season after a loss of a player like that. I still wish her well, but it would be nice to get a Buffalo shout out once in a while too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She mentioned Rochester a bunch, why not give UB a little love for giving her the start to her career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know if she was recruited by SU out of HS and FLJ talked her into coming to UB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
