  • She's only had the freshman and transfers for two days a week since school started, but says the talent is very evident. They can score at all five positions.
  • Doesn't think she'll have a problem managing all the personalities on this team. Thinks everyone that wears the uniform is going to welcome the spotlight and be able to handle all the expectations.
  • Flau'jae Johnson has a mild ankle sprain. Poa had surgery on her broken hand and she's doing well but they won't be full speed at the Tigers first open practice.
  • Says it's hard to win, but it's very hard to win it back-to-back. She did it as a player, but not as a coach. Says if you're the underdog and you win the natty, you didn't get everyones best shot. Feels LSU will get every single teams best every game.
  • Says with NIL and social media, it makes it a lot different coming off a national championship here than it was at Baylor and LA Tech.
  • Haley Van Lith, Aneesah Morrow and Angel Reese bring experience to this team and feels they can help the younger players learn how to play at the college pace.
  • Wants to see Aliyah Del Rosario and Sa'Myah Smith play the La'Dazhia Williams role, she get's that they're young, but needs them to learn fast and get production out of them.
  • Says she's never had players walk into her office and complain about playing time. Says she and her coaching staff do a good job of teaching her players that the team comes first and if the team succeeds, they will as individuals too.
  • Feels she has 2 true PG's, but has 5 players who can handle the ball and bring it up the court at any given moment.
  • Says the PMAC is almost completely sold out for pre-sale tickets for all season. They're also talking about putting more seats in the student section because of the high demand.
  • Said LSU as a brand and in NIL is "completely off the charts right now."
  • Thinks that despite Angel being one of the best and most well known college athletes, she's still a competitor and is very motivated to get better everyday.
