100%. I would go all in for a Canady-type or 2 Carlyn Pickens type.
There is a fine line between very good and elite. But that line makes all the difference between reaching the finals or not.
When we had Tincher, if our offense was even average, we probably would’ve won it all. But our offense was atrocious. That ‘22 team with Keely and Emma as an unknown freshman at the time, coupled with all the star power at the plate, is the formula we want to replicate. If THAT team also had Cori, maybe we do win it all.

Can't answer without knowing how much the total NIL budget contains.**

You're likely not getting to the supers. Any P beyond the #2 doesn't matter**
