Guess it's official, no more mining of the transfer portal.

I had hoped for Lattimore, but either she said no (I can't find that she has landed anywhere yet) or Kara felt she had to pull the trigger with Corosdale if Lattimore was waffling. Summer classes start in 3 days. Corosdale is probably more polished, but we would have had 3 years of Lattimore vs. just 1 of Corosdale. Or of course Kara might have felt Corosdale is what she needs right now due to her progress with recruiting.
I am intrigued that Brown and Corosdale have played together, mostly both starting, for 2 years. Hopefully that means instant chemistry and smoother integration into the team.
We're better at every position, either through aging or addition, than we were last year. Possibly significantly better. Definitely top-25, and potentially top-15. We were top-15 last year when our best player got hurt and the wheels came off. Curse you, Syracuse! <shakes fist in general northerly direction> Plus last year was a real hodge-podge, virtually none of the starters had ever played together. Hard to win in basketball when you've got a pick-up team and everybody else is bringing an experienced squad to the arena. At a minimum Shy, Celeste, and Elizabeth (probable starters) have had a year to grow some chemistry.
Time for Kara to make this engine run!
