coach williams on sharp & benning this am...

[whoopdeedoo]

didn't really learn too much. i took it there is still some discussions to take place before any final decisions are to be made (re: nat and probably a couple others). coach williams did also state she wanted to focus on the players that want to be at nebraska. 

 

i posted earlier that i thought we would hear something monday or tuesday (today)----but, sounds like it may carry on a bit longer. was just going on a "gut" feeling. 

 

sorry, sharp and benning! good ol' spell check.

This stuff takes time.  The ones leaving have to make visits.  Things are happening behind the scene (which is where they should happen IMO).   I wouldn't take "No news" at this point as being very significant or things aren't going to happen. 

 

In addition to the transfers, of which I'm pretty sure there will be at least a couple, it will be very interesting to see if Doyle and Cayton can be kept in the fold. I'm pretty sure coach will have a chance to "sell" at least one family, and I wish her the best in that effort.

Keeping Doyle in the fold is huge IMO.

She has an excellent chance to be the starting PG from day 1.Playing with a 5* big for the next 3 years should be a strong selling point.

Not to get anyone's hopes up on Kathleen but here’s a tidbit I find really interesting about Kathleen Doyle’s Benet Academy’s girls basketball championship team this last year.

 

In 1987 Amy Bullock transferred to Nebaska from Barton County CC in Kansas. She played two years for NU under then head coach Angela Beck. She started both years. After she graduated she became an assistant coach for a couple years under Beck in the early to mid 90’s and I if I remember correctly coached our now head coach Amy Gusso/Williams for one year. She got married and became Amy Kramer and moved to Chicago.

 

Fast forward to this year, the Benet Academy girls state champion team had junior Ali Kramer on the roster, yes ex-Husker Amy Bullock/Kramer’s daughter.

 

Could that connection help when it comes to getting an affirmation on Kathleen’s commitment to NU?

 

Let’s hope so, it can't hurt.
