  1. She can't and especially with her injury history. But Jones has started for good teams at Oregon State and Texas. It's still a difficult sell to convince a player like Jones to come off the bench.
  2. That's the only worry with Beers at Texas. I know Jones announced she's returning but she would not start over Beers. Not sure how Jones would react to Beers at Texas.
  3. With Holle, Harmon, the two FR guards, and Booker who can also give you minutes at PG it will be interesting how the portal goes at guard. Feels like we will have to convince somebody to play 20 to 23 minutes instead of being a 30+ minute type.
  4. I think the problem with Gaston/Jones is they're both good but neither are game changers. Really high floor with those two but there are potentially game changers in the portal. Texas has game changers at guard (Rori) and wing (Booker) next year. The other issue with Gaston/Jones is both have a pretty extensive injury history. I say it's very unlikely both those 2 would ever be healthy together for a full season.
  5. It was pretty obvious we were looking to upgrade at the 5 when Blair Schaefer started following the two Oregon State bigs (Beers and Gardiner). Both of which are better than Gaston and probably even Jones. Beers is the best player in the portal.
  6. Give Beers whatever she wants in terms of NIL. Rori, Booker, and Beers can win a title.
  7. I think this is the main problem. Most would be fine having Mitchell and Hunter back if they are just 1) role players and 2) don't require much NIL allocation. Seems unlikely but I think it was @closetojumpingthat suggested Mitchell looked around last year and didn't get any takers at the price he wanted. Maybe the same is true this cycle.
  8. She is but that's a huge question with her. She's been injured all 3 seasons in college.
  9. Twitter thinks it's Azzi Fudd. Meh, if true that's a major transfer but I don't think "it breaks the internet." She has major injury issues.
  10. Texas State being sent to the College Station regional would be juicy.
  11. I would not want to play Texas State at all in a super. You would have to beat them 2 out of 3 games where Mullins will likely pitch 90% of those innings. That's a difficult task.
  12. Weird game. Mullins didn't have anywhere close to her best stuff and we were awful defensively. I was expecting a 2-1 type score.
  13. Feels like the Texas State coach over thought this one. No chance I'm taking Mullins out.
  14. Mullins is exiting but still think this has to be a sac bunt.
  15. If Beers and Iriafen enter the portal, we will see how committed Texas is to NIL. If there was ever a time to buy a player it's now. If you add an All-American frontcourt player in the mix with Rori and Booker I see no reason why we wouldn't be the national title favorites.
  16. The only issue with those 3 above is they are all potentially better than Jones. That's if Iriafen can play the 5 (she's similar size as Gaston). I don't know how these type players impact Jones but she's been splitting minutes with a big since she's been here.
  17. It's all dependent on what happens with Beers and Iriafen because if those two enter the portal there are going to be some legit bigs in the portal. If Beers, Iriafen, and Gardiner are all in the portal we really have to try and land one of these. We are talking two All-American caliber players and then Gardiner is potentially an All-Conference level player.
  18. Gaston isn’t surprising once you looked at what was happening in the portal. Fairly obvious the staff is looking to upgrade.
