I think edwards is waiting on a waiver. Baylor has not looked good this year and if Blackwells injury is serious or could be a long season for Cullen and company.Bailer not looking awe-inspiring at all tonight vs. SMU. Edwards not playing at all and Blackwell went 0 for 4 and hasn't played since the 1st qtr (Bay only leading 50-46 with just 6 mins left in the game!). But the worst part was when their homer color commentator on this broadcast was just talking about the Texas/UCONN game, and said "I thought Texas played well considering they were without their starting PG Torey Hunter". WTF?
I'm not sure what the issue is, but she shouldn't require a waiver. She sat out her first season at Kentucky after transferring from Utah. So, she has not used her one-time transfer exception providing immediate eligibility. Perhaps certain of her credits didn't transfer from UK to BU.
Per Nicki Collen, Edwards is in fact waiting on the NCAA to grant her an eligibility waiver. No specifics were given
Wonder if she ever thinks her transfer decision might have been a little hasty.
Should've chosen a smaller school... mid-major at best.
Luther, this is clearly the correct thing to believe and to say, and my compliments for expressing this opinion.
I'm sure there is a lot of (mis)information out there about Edwards. I have no idea what is accurate, but Collen has to be vague due to privacy issues.
Its pretty clear at this point that Vic Schaefer is the coach who was able to bring the most out of AC. Had she stayed, she would have gotten playing time and continued to be developed. No one will ever get her to play as hard as Vic did. And won't it be ironic if the highlight of her athletic career was the Elite8 ring she received playing for the team, coach and school that she claims screwed her up? I guess she'd rather be the last person off the bench.
I was thinking pretty much the same thing. After a couple of years with Vic he would have found a way to utilize her to the best of her abilities, and would have only gotten better going against Rori, JAT, Kendall, Shalee, Sonya, etc every day in practice. She may have been the starting PG in that game at UConn with Rori out, but instead she was barely off the bench in a loss to Jackson State in Lubbock.
@racerx5908 same here.
I laughed because you expressed a mouthful of negatives in that last sentence!
Not racer, but the denominator is the number of players on the team that registered minutes. (E.g., Texas had 9 for our first two games.)
Very interesting post. Thanks. The one that surprises me is Aliyah. Is she injured or otherwise unavailable?
The first number is the player's rank in terms of total minutes played. The second number is the number of players with any minutes recorded by the NCAA.
That's it. Vic just has so many choices which create more front court permutations than my probability classes could prepare me to count.
