I LOVE Timmie but all of those players are better players at OTHER schools. it is very possible that Timmie has more value to us than she has almost anywhere. she fits absolutely GREAT with Brooklyn and Maddie as returners and leaders of a bunch of returning freshman and incoming freshman
is she seriously worth 100k? my understanding was that Baylor got 80k when he left. Timmie is not playing that role for a power conference school
if the offer is just 50k is that really enough to leave? she is getting some money and it seems like as likely our clear #2 next year there could be at least a little more
this is a player, who started every game of our run to a WNIT championship. the last returning player from that team. a starter on two teams that went to the NCAA and won a first round game and an injured player on another ncaa team. she has been a part of THREE NCAA teams and a WNIT champ
a person leaves all of that and multiple 3 year teammates for 50K minus what she will get from BWW and perhaps more? if that is seriously where we are at... sports is really really getting ruined
YES there are still beautiful moments but the ratio of ugliness vs the moments that bring us joy and inspire us is moving very very quickly in the wrong direction
UNLESS there is some piece of info we do not have, Haliegh Timmer is NOT a player who should be playing her final year with a bunch of new teammates instead of getting honored next year at senior day with Brooklyn, Maddie, and Ellie!!!!!
and along that line, did something happen since senior day? if this was even a tiny possibility, why didnt she walk on senior night so that she could be thanked and honored by the fans? that would have been kind of incredible
that would have been the last 5 members of the WNIT champs walking out the door TOGETHER and Kallie and Timmie played BIG roles in that run to the title
I know that we had Dru a couple years ago for her final year instead of her finishing with the team she had played the rest of her career with, but she was getting married and made the move to be closer to her future husband. maybe there is some circumstance we are unaware of? I love her and wish her the best regardless!!! but programs should NOT lose players like Timmie and definitely not becasue of less than 50k
