She's essentially taking the spot Nixon would have had if she had stayed. I don't know if she'll be successful but I'd expect her to petition for eligibility this season. In today's transfer world that probably depends on how willing Va. Tech is to assist her. It's going to be PG by committee until Miles gets to ND. Mabrey can help with that and other things. Abby P with a deeper shot.

As for the theory posted here somewhere that N. Ivy wanted her all along and was somehow overruled by Muffett we'll chalk that up to the new coach effect. ND went from Jenna Brown to Shake Nixon. They were clearly looking for a "pure" PG with quick's. And Dara Mabrey said in an interview that ND would have taken her but told her she wasn't their first choice at PG. She could have come. But like any real competitor opted to go where she was the top choice.
