A crazy thought…

I fully acknowledge that this is likely not a possibility, so don’t come at me too hard…but it crossed my mind. If CKB interviewed at UK in an attempt to get Whit’s attention and negotiate more money for his staff, maybe he’s also looking for more money to create additional positions. Perhaps for Liz, G, or Cayla. Coaches sometimes “create” positions to keep former players around that they really respect and think will be good teachers/leaders. I could see CKB offering any of them a position like player development or something like that. I’d love to be wrong, but I don’t see Liz getting drafted this year knowing that she won’t be able to play in the upcoming season. Not to mention the WNBA typically doesn’t draft a lot of true centers. I know she has mentioned med school, but I wonder if she’d stick around if offered a position, especially the way this season ended for her. Cayla had a tough season, but we know there’s loyalty between her and CKB and players have spoken to her leadership skills. And obviously the jury is still out on G’s decision. I’m sure this is just my crazy wishful thinking, but I’d love for any of them to stick around. From what we’ve heard, they’ve been instrumental to supporting this freshman group and that mentorship could continue.

Liz is coaching material but will probably move on to Medical career.

Only thing remotely true in that is Liz's possible medical school

What, "constraints?"

Money. As good as our Ag program is, they haven't made it grow on trees.
