At a minimum, that gives the Huskies Jana, Ice and Sarah to rotate through the 4 and 5 positions. With additional help coming from Patterson and others, depending on their recovery. It's a full roster, hopefully they all stay healthy.

It's a full roster, hopefully they all stay healthy. The frontcourt depth is now excellent. Strong is a terrific rebounder and she can slide in where Edwards should have been, at the 4, if not for the frontcourt injuries. So many options.

I'm keeping this thread separate from the one semper started, since this is focused exclusively on the actual announcement. But if folks want them combined, let us admins know.
Oh wow. I can't remember the last time I was so very, very happy to be wrong!

If you listened to her announcement, she pretty much said the reasons that we all mentioned here. Winning and prepping for her professional future were huge in her decision making. It appears that location wasn't a factor.

Well I won't say "I told you so". Mainly because I had no idea. Good news though. Welcome. Hope she has a great career, gets herself a couple NC's, gets up on the Wall. Where's Tony? 195-0?

I don't know about 195-0 but I would take that bet that they will be undefeated next season. Well until all the injuries, I figured that for this (23-24) season. That didn't work out too well. So I'll keep my mouth shut this next season. Gotta say though, it would be nice to see a season with healthy players. Just to see how good they could be. If everyone was healthy could be a really memorable year.

OMG! I ran out to pick up a few things. I logged in with some trepidation. After the agony of last night's loss, I am now elated!
But, I have taxes to finish. I will celebrate later!

I feel like if we missed out on Strong it would be like when we missed on Boston. I feel like getting Strong is the difference in being a really good team vs being a championship team. Great news. Welcome home

I take it her nickname is Rah I know folks like to use nicknames here but I hate it. Don't ask me why, but it just rubs me the wrong way. Hey, sometimes I probably do it too.

Does Rah speak any other languages? Spanish for sure. She lived there until she was 10 as both her parents played ball internationally and based there.
