What do you mean "MESSED with?"

[ds401]

There was a game where a player from and an opposing team (thought it was NC) got into it with AW. Something was said/done to our player.

Are you talking about the Florida game at home that she got elbowed in the face with a cheap shot? I am not aware of anything in either game with UNC.

I hope you have the gift of prophecy! I hate to say it, but I really think youall have the better chance. But as long as it's UT or USC, I can be VERY happy.

If she comes here it's game over, we would clearly be on the level of UCONN. Just for fun, imagine this lineup. I put Mitchell at the point just to get them all in there

PG - Mitchell
SG - Deshields
SF - Wilson
PF - White
C - Coates

The bench would be something serious too. Cuevas and company.

September 2013: Cooper reopened her recruitment after giving a verbal to North Carolina as an eighth-grader. She is still considering UNC but also has 10 other schools on her list. In no order they are: Tennessee, Duke, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Florida State, South Carolina, Louisville, Kentucky, Rutgers and Pittsburgh.

I don't know, it's great Dawn and Co. have gotten themselves in the mix but I still assume UT. Now if news comes out Te'a is visiting again soon then I'll let myself get enthused for I still think they are a package deal.

What I think will be a game-changer for Te'a, is if TJ(her boyfriend) gets an offer for football. He's an Army All-American selection so it's not a stretch. Plus, you know how SEC schools are when it comes to high-profile footballers when one school offers the others are almost sure to follow. I think Tenn has offered and it seems UGA will follow suit. Just a theory.

To me she seems to flop and fake injuries like soccer players do. I have see her in 4 different games take weak contact and get "hurt" and act like she is in agony than she leaves the court and comes back 7 mins later and she wasn't slowed down or hampered at all.
She is all about attention for herself, and when a star player demands attention, she can attract more than one kind. Good attention for her play and bad attention for the way she handles herself the wrong way.

And you know this how? Because she wants to leave Chapel Hill she is a bad person LMAO. College kids transfer all the time and typically its because they aren't happy where they are at. She has every right to transfer as well if she is not happy.

Where did I say she is a bad person? I said she seeks attention, she flops and she brags. She's immature and she's a freshman. I thought this about her before I had any clue she was going to transfer. It doesn't mean I wouldn't want her on my team. It doesn't mean I think she is a cancer. I just think she is young and immature and that will get better with age and proper guidance. People actually think she is a cancer and bad teammate even before she was going to transfer. Not me, but that is a common perception of her because of the way she has acted. It's not my fault she's become the Johnny Manziel of WBB.

That could well be the most talented women's basketball team, from top to bottom, ever. I mean you can argue other teams had more dominant players especially as upper classmen, but for a starting 5 and how the bench would look? My goodness.

An article on ESPNW said as much a few weeks ago. The argument was it could be the greatest collection of talent in women's basketball history if she transfers to South Carolina.

I have a hard time comprehending the talent we already have on our team...... seems a bit unfair to add DD!

If I am a betting man, I bet UT has the inside track. Find it hard to believe that DD wants to share the spotlight with A'ja, AC, TM, AW, etc......

Fly, the article's author was almost right. It could be the greatest collection of college B-ball talent in history even w/o Diamond; with her, there's no doubt.

Remember it's not like DS will just quit recruiting. She's after the likes of Lambert, Robinson, Cooper, Jones and others for next year.

DD, wanna win three in a row?? Play with the best & make Cola,SC your home away from home. Girl, just imagine Diamond & the Steel Magnolias rocking the CLA in front of 18,000 vanquishing UCONN. Doesn't get any better!

[Phillygamecock]

While I would be ecstatic if she came here, I think she ends up at Tennessee.

I'd like to have her, just so Tennessee and Georgia doesn't, to be quite honest.

[bobbycock]

I am sorry. Something just doesn't sound right about this. She is leaving a top program for one that is on the march upward. It's not like UNC is a dying program. They beat us in the tournament too. I don't get it. If she was leaving a team that was ranked twentieth or lower, I could understand. But she isn't. And won't she have to sit out a year due to NCAA rules? So what am I missing here? I wanna know.
