In the long term how much do you think

Mabrey not coming here will effect us? I realize that may be an unanswerable question depending on who we recruit going forward. I know it hurts short term. The theoretical impact of Patberg transferring had to have hurt. That's the negative no one thinks about is how that transfer may have impacted any recruits that may have thought about coming here. It is why I can't cheer for them on the basketball court when they walk away because it really hurts the program. I know that is not very "civil"" of me but can't help it

Why the Mabrey fascination?

I got the sense she didn't want to come here. I also got the sense Muffet wasn't that enamored. She's good and we do need 3 point shooters but that ship has passed and it might not even be that great a boat to begin with.

2 similar players with the same blood lines

both made huge impacts in the program recently

that is why I was so disappointed that Dara went elsewhere-thus my fascination

although smaller, she might be the best of the 3

you can't teach that Mabrey "do whatever it takes to win" attitude

I tune in VT games just to watch her

I wish she came too. Don't know about the best Mabrey tho *

"might" she has 2 more years and the rest of this one *

Wonder if she might have been recruited harder

with Muffet's new expanded roster recruiting. Of course we are still not 100% sure she wanted ND

No fascination, just was asking about players

that didn't come. In regards to Evans I was asking about the impact on recruiting players when someone like Patberg was perceived to be entrenched. I believe I remember with Mabrey is she wanted to forge he own path but was asking what impact she would have had if she had come here. Time will tell, as with any recruit, whether it would have made any difference.
