Respectfully, Brooks was not a one trick pony on talent aquistion...

Amoore, Sheppard, Soule, Traylor, Strack are all WNBA or borderline WNBA players. Not to mention other overseas professional level players. Even if Liz is the best college player he recruited, the narrative that she was the only player that made him is just wrong.

You’re right. He left and all of my interest in what he does went with him**

Don't worry. There will be enough to carry on the Buzz & Brooks nostalgia!
