I agree that she wasn't a critical need, particularly with KK returning as an extra ball handler, but she was the best shooter in the portal, and more threes is always a good thing.

It's definitely a challenge to convince an all conference player to leave a starting spot to join a talented but crowded backcourt, but I am impressed that Niele was able to pull her in for a visit and I am optimistic with how high she aiming.

Sell, particularly for a P5 player who might have aspirations to go pro.

Like you said, though, I like the quality of the players that Niele is bringing in.

At some point, knock on Dome, we'll hear how these visits play out...

Thought Alabama had made good strides was a bit surprised to see her in the portal, given that. Now she can get back, aim higher and finish it out (just like KK will do with ND...)
