I really enjoyed what Gary Blair brought to Aggie women's basketball. Reminded me of Shelby Metcalf with his wit.
Gary and Kelly Bond recruited 3 Too 100 players...but all from far away. Our top recruit has decommitted. Another (Mia Petticord) ha taken her A&M stuff off her website, according to one TexAgs poster a couple of weeks ago. I assume the three will not be playing for us in the fall. Other programs near their homes are surely in hot pursuit.
We needed all three. Now, maybe Taylor can bring one or more of her Georgia players in through the portal. That would be helpful.
The scramble is on with the portal kids. I am hopeful. Am not happy with Gary's final season...it was a mess. His players stoped playing for him as the season came to a close. That was a major surprise...and I'm sure very disappointing to him.
We are all wondering what we will have for a roster next year. Where we sit right now is not encouraging...but we'll see what Joni can do. I found her to be quite impressive in her press conference.
Was glad to hear she wants Texas kids. Never got that feeling with Gary Blair. So many great prospects in Texas each year but we got so few committed.
There is reason for concern. Gary took us on a tremendous ride...but we finished this year 4-12 in the SEC. That equals 'bottom feeder'.
Joni has a hole to dig out of. And why did no one in Georgia seem disappointed to lose her? That seems odd.
Just questions...let's hope we quickly jump back to being relevant in the SEC in 2022-23. Don't need the snarky remarks...some reasonable conversation is what I am looking for. I am a fan of Aggie Women's basketball...just want to see us be a player again.
Don't take life too seriously...no one gets out alive.
