If what we suspect about Burke's desired style of play is correct, I would assume only one of Johnson, Gaba and Salmons will see the floor at once with what should be a guard heavy, push the pace type of lineup. Also, it looks like Salmons will have three years of eligibility. We could use at least a few holdovers after this upcoming seasons for continuity sake. She averaged 4 minutes a game, took a total of 24 shots and her FGM/A = 62.5%. I suspect/hope she'll be an upgrade in the post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coming home after Georgia Tech and St. Louis. Should have 3, maybe 4 years left. Another post presence with local ties, always nice. This roster is rounding out nicely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting that she went to GT after high school. She was honorable mention all WNY her senior year. Tough to find much on her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UBinMD Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Best shooter in the state of Georgia apparently. Coach Burke says she's a leader, fierce competitor and shot 45% from 3. Pretty crazy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UBinMD Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Rachel Rose is headed to Wofford. Interesting choice, but hopefully it's a good fit for her. Staying in SC, so maybe that was a key. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BasketBull Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 I don't care what the level of competition was, seven triple doubles and one quadruple double in one season is absolutely bonkers. I'm really excited to see what she can do at the college level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I think Hattie will be a matchup nightmare in the MAC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DooleyBull06 Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 (edited) At this point I’m excited to see what coach Burke’s system will be like. I expected this team to be better later in the season rather than the beginning. Gonna take time to gel. But very exciting.

Just need to bring it all together into her image. I think now that she has a team, she can get to work on the game plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not an argument, just a couple differences of opinion… Although I’d never say this aloud, my inner voice will continue to question their quality, until I actually see them play a game. Does her game plan really follow the abilities of the recruited players, or was that already in place first? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume that she recruits players who will fit her system and the type of play she wants to see. That’s how you build a culture. She’s relatively young and inexperienced but this isn’t her first coaching gig. So I assume she has an idea in place. The benefit she had was that she is starting with a clean canvas.

Do agree with the excitement level especially after Coach Jack left and took all our top players. Just have to wait and see how all these new players develop. Who could of forecast how good both Fair and especially Woolley would become. If McEvans did not have injury problems and if Christie would of improved and given solid minutes Woolley might not of seen many minutes at all. That is both the crazy and exciting aspect of college basketball. Go Bulls!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly the best/most coveted recruit UB has gotten in any sport. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Wooley’s potential was very high but for her to come in and put up the numbers she did in year one, especially on a team with a legit superstar was beyond expectation. They were a two headed monster that just needed a little more help from the supporting cast to be even better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
