and what a bonehead move, if she does, on her part>
And, do you think it was a "bonehead move" when Mandy Morales, the second- most proficient scorer in Montana history, decided to leave Arizona State and return to Montana to play basketball? I will refresh your memory lest you forgot:
"Montana's Mandy Morales became just the fifth player in Big Sky history to earn first-team accolades all four years of her career. The senior was a unanimous selection to the first team, along with Portland State's Kelsey Kahle and Claire Faucher. Morales and Faucher were also unanimous first-team selections in 2007-08.
Morales, a three-time honorable mention All-American, was named the Big Sky's Most Valuable Player for the second time. The 5-9 guard averaged 16.7 points per game overall and 18.3 in league play to help the Lady Griz to their 19th overall and third-straight outright conference title. She leads the Big Sky with an .837 free-throw percentage and ranks fourth in assists per game (4.50) and field goal percentage (.480). Morales ranks in the top 20 in almost every other statistical category.
The native of Billings, Mont., was named the Big Sky Player of the Week five times in 2008-09. On Jan. 29, she scored 34 points against Portland State to post the best single-game mark in the Big Sky this season. Morales was named the MVP at last year's tournament and also garnered regular-season MVP honors in 2006-07.
Hmm, lets see .. UM Degree .. or Stanford Degree. That's a tough one.

So as far as you know the statements about "the Grady Bennett Rule" where if an athlete transfers schools within the big sky has to sit out 2 years does not apply to women's bball?
Nelson transfers to Eastern Washington

Lexie Nelson is leaving the University of Montana, but she's not leaving the Big Sky Conference.
Butte High's all-time leading scorer will transfer to Eastern Washington University in Cheney, Nelson said Friday night.
"I just decided today," Nelson said in a phone interview. "I am looking forward to the opportunity."
Nelson played in all 33 games for Montana last season, averaging 3.3 points per game.
Nelson declined to specify why she is transferring from Montana.
"I appreciate the opportunity I was given to be a part of their program," Nelson said. "But moving to another program will be a better fit. I think it will work out."
Nelson will have to redshirt next season. Then she'll have three years of eligibility remaining.
"It will be difficult not being on the court," she said. "I can help in other ways, whether it's pushing them (her teammates) in practice or being on the bench during games."
Nelson said that several schools expressed interest in her after the news of her transferring broke early last week. She said she was always attracted to Eastern Washington.
"Their program is on the rise," Nelson said. "I really like the the coach (Wendy Schuller). She's really motivated and wants to win."
