B was my initial thought and the fact no one said “best of luck” or “you’ll be missed” is why I took it that way.

I have an internal source that says she’s confirmed still in the portal. Doesn’t mean she couldn’t still return.

Would it be solely her choice? Nothing against her, I wished she would have seen the court more, but are coaches obligated to a student athlete once they announce they've entered the portal???

Year 2 ✔️ can be taken two ways.
A) 2 years of college down. Neither worked out, & time now for next chapter at new school.
Or,
B) She's revised her original decision to enter portal, & is looking forward to year 2 here.

Could be wrong of course, my interpretation anyway. Guess we'll find out soon enough.

Sifa’s recent Instagram post would imply she is returning to MTSU next year?

But admittedly, it's very confusing because no comment is of substance.

EDIT: She is currently still listed in the portal.

A lot of players post stuff following the season. Wouldn’t look in depth at that

One thing I brought up on our NIL posting recently was I hope the season ticket package can be updated for when they come out this fall. When renewing would be great to have an option for NIL donation to be included on season ticket purchase. Be very simple to have say a $30 donation allotted to our NIL collective. If we could get 1,500 to 2,000 season ticket holders to buy in that would be an extremely easy way of picking up another $50 - $60k in NIL for men's or women's program.
Last year it was only $125 for a women's season ticket pkg. The difference between $125 & $155 for a MT women's fan is virtually negligible, & would be a great of promoting support to our players. Ideleon quickly responded, & said it's something they're looking in to. I hope it comes about.

For that matter it could be done at the walk up counter for single ticket purchases as well. For a $20 ticket just give $25 designating the other $5 to go towards the team's NIL fund. Being fan based money one would think this should be an easy & great way to build our NIL funding.

I’m not so sure that our ladies don’t get a nil package. I know they’ve done a couple of commercials, and Matt is crafty as hell. I’m also thinking that the wealthier fans are giving to this program. It’s probably not UT women’s money, but 1k a month is still a lot for a college kid with no bills

I'd be shocked to hear that was NOT the case. What incentive did he have?

Fair point.

In my line of work (and perhaps in others too), the weight of leadership comes with a heavy mental, emotional, psychological, and even spiritual burden. That weight can be exhaustion & lead to burnout, complacency, mediocrity, etc

As Saban says, "mediocrity is the human condition."

It's easy to settle for "this is good enough because this is all we can do." But leaders (especially of football teams) need to have the "mamba mentality" and have a burning desire to be GREAT.

I imagine she's used to receiving NIL compensation of some variety. Would like to know what a player like her was receiving in NIL last year. It may not have been significant. She certainly would give us the size and added talent to compete with just about anyone on our schedule next year, including USC possibly. Be great to see her in a Blue Raider uniform playing against the orange in Knoxville.

Will be entertaining to see how CRI's style of play works out versus coach Caldwell's next year. My only concern after watching the LSU home court onslaught by the referees is we don't get totally shafted by similar calls in Knoxville.

More prudent question might be how quickly UT adapts to their own coach. To beat a pressure defense you need to attack the middle of the floor and have multiple ball handlers. Having a big that's solid on the perimeter will help Middle against that pressure as well.

Don't think UT will be as good as LSU and hopefully we will be a little deeper so foul trouble doesn't sink us

This is big news for Memphis. Not sure if it will move the needle on conference realignment but they will definitely be able to sign some 4/5 stars.
