I'd like to see her stay and take on a different role next year as a post up player and mid range shooter. Not handle the ball so much we need to get a couple of players to do more of that work.

You make a very good point. Horston, with the ball, is a yellow warning light: Might very well make a move and score; might very well dribble into a double team and lose the ball or throw up a crazy shot.

Y’all think we will go after Day-Wilson. She a solid PG. @Amb3096 @Coach Jumper @DarthVol

Another one for the pine?

We have yet to give proper looks at the ones we have

I saw BK play for over a year before she came here...She is a pitbull. but right now she gets her teeth into her opponent and boom, the leash/bench...and she can put points on the board with that blast of speed she has
and
I called her "Kaiya the Flya" for a reason...She can do things in the air. But not sitting and not playing "not to make a mistake"...

A player has to get into the flow to show their real worth

I would rather go after a point guard that can shoot, and after watching that Duke offense...

I will be surprised if Horston stays. She has done her best and has given more than enough to the university and to the Lady Vols basketball program. She has been a loyal and hardworking player, made a lot of great memories and some teammates who are likely to be lifelong friends. But she has also endured the pain of injury, the whole COVID nightmare, and quite a lot of abuse from "fans" over the years. She can start the next chapter of her adult life feeling good that she gave her all. I just can't imagine her not being mentally exhausted and ready to move on.

With NIL, where these ladies going that's paying worth a dam? No reason not to stay for more college fun when the job market looks like trash at the pro level.

Caitlin Clarke had 8 TOs yesterday, I say Iowa should kick that erratic "street" player off the team too, right?

It depends on when and how the turnovers happen and what the player does to compensate for them. Caitlin Clark is an exception to every rule. I'm convinced she's an android. No human shoots like that.

What bothers me is how much Jordan's pattern of t.o.s at crucial times bothers her. And apparently fan reaction to them bothers her and her family. It's hard for me to see any of that changing at this point, which is why a reset may be what she needs, Bless her, no one cares more or tries harder. I just want her to be happy and relaxed wherever.

Only thing is we're at such a logjam in those positions already. Our real need is a guard who is a reliable 3 pt shooter and good defender.

Damn turbo Jordan is one of the two best players on this team , I would hate to hear what you think about the other players. But from what I've seen and heard the Lady can ball.
Hope she miss your posts before she decide to remain.

I’ll be the dissenting opinion. She would be an elite PG if healthy. She has a lot of upside and is certainly better than any PG on the roster today.

Horston has done a lot--but her erratic street play and questionable decision-making have been a problem for four years; they were a costly problem in the Va. Tech game, and will be a problem again next year if she stays. Some continue to think that patterns will break and thins will suddenly turn around and improve next year....but.....

Very truthful observation

Knowing how Horston is, it could also be that she didn't want to risk her announcement being even a minor distraction from today's big games. If that's the case, I could see her announcing tomorrow since the buzz would die down by the time the FF starts.
