Nicki has never said she is supremely talented - she is what she is: a hard-working student athlete. She could have gone somewhere else, maybe to a school featuring more of a low-post offense, and done even better. But she took a schollie to ISU when Bill offered it, and gave her all.
I will miss her.
If only, if only. If Rachel Pierson had stayed, then Nicky could have developed more of a Dirk Nowitzki game that matches her true talents. She gave it her all, I hope she gets to play in more fun situations before her playing days are done. Thanks Nicky, Amanda, T, Jos, Heather!
This team represented all the values, we, as Iowans, hope to live by every day. Seeing their careers end at ISU is hard to bear, although they finished them so well.
