Makennah White

[Floyd]

Just read that Makennah White transferred to Seton Hall. Big loss for the women's team in my opinion. I thought she was very good here and I enjoyed watching her play here & elevate the program. Wish her the best in her new career at Seton Hall

Kinda sad to see all the talent leave from a very entertaining team. Wonder why they all bailed out after seeming so tight as a team

I agree. I thought she was more versatile than Ngalakolandi. And a good leader organizing the defense.
Maybe she just saw the ship sinking with Verdi departure? T try seniors/grads leaving and the rest of the nucleus hitting the portal. Tough situation for the new coach.

Meant to write "Verdi departure, the seniors/grads leaving ....etc

They were the Savage Seven (less Stepanie) and were bonded like no other group starting together for 3+ years. I don't think they wanted to be part of a rebuild here and just agreed to finish somewhere else and go their separate ways!

A bit off topic, but is anyone else curious why none of them went to Pitt with Verdi?

Probably didn’t want a possible rebuild.

If they all stayed, what rebuild? Still would have had lots of talent, experience, and depth. I think kids just can't stay in 1 place anymore
