The earlier we can work out the kinks, the better!Rellah clearly not in game shape at this point. Anastasia fighting what appears to be severe cramps in one leg.
Rashika can't follow rules, at this point a wasted scholarship. I will be surprised if she ever sees the floor in a lady raider uniform. Two years of free school and nothing to show for it on the court. Booth has not played in 11/2 years nursing a bad knee when she gets things going I think everyone will be pleased.Losing Rashika really hurts this year. She could've been all conference.
Ra'Shika is not playing because she had a bad injury for which she had surgery. She's got a bad attitude too?Rashika can't follow rules, at this point a wasted scholarship.

I would say do not judge the entire season based on one game.I had thought this could be that longed for break-out year based on the comments from the Lil' General and others (some on this board who had seen off-season workouts), primarily based on the "bigs" which would be available this year. Insell himself had said, and I paraphrase, "We've got four big girls and they can all play".
Now before the season even starts: 1. Willock has left the program, 2. Ra'Shika White is either injured or has a bad attitude (or both?), 3. A couple of posters have discredited any help from Payne which is not surprising considering her stats from UVA. 4. And Boothe is having trouble recovering from knee problems, is not in shape and with her body type obviously may never be more than a "spot" player.
So much for this being the year that Insell's promised national rankings and/or Great 8/Final Four season is finally realized.
Oh well, Charvarius Ward looked good in prime-time last night.
I agree with that, but if you have seen almost 40 years worth of mens and womens teams, you can pretty well tell a top 10 nationwide team from a top 3 in the conference team. I am assuming that MTFNBY5 was saying this probably isn't going to be the team to take us to elite 8 this year and not that we will have a bad year. Before the injuries and departures, I thought that was possible on paper. Next year and the year following that could be real interesting though.
Also, I wanted to comment on Ra'Shika. No one that I have heard said she has a bad attitude. I do know in one of Insell's videos he commented that she went to one of the auxiallary gyms and was playing when she was told not to do that when the injury occurred. I am not sure someone playing a pick-up basketball game should be labeled with a bad attitude as I heard it was just going up for a layup and coming down normal. As always, I could be wrong......
