The original plan with Mays this year was to redshirt her since she needed time to develop. However, since there were early season injuries to Anna and Z, she had to play.
As for Moody - this is from the Five Days article:
“He’s two different people,†Moody said. “On the court, he’s intense. He’s the way a coach should be, and he wants the best out of you every play, every single time. Off the floor, coach Fennelly is the nicest person. You can go into his office. You can talk to him. You can have conversations with him about life, about personal things. He’ll always be there to help you.
If anyone read the Mechelle Voepel article/watched the interview with Deb after the Missouri game, it mentioned BF hit bottom right after the New Year, thought it was interesting.
