Swiss Army knife...best of luck. LGO

She's a baller.

 

[KellySyracuse]

Definitely a baller that was wasted here because of egos. I hope she does well in the WNBA, SU failed her IMO and I'm glad she was able to find a better place. She's a kid and needed adult guidance she didn't get here.

Impressive. Was underutilized here but she has also seems to have grown physically and mentally as well. Probably did her good to get out of here.

Good luck to Emily. She was really fun to watch when she played for the Orange.

Has anyone ever explained how the hell Q got so much talent to come to Syracuse?

Velour track suits?

Just shows you the potential that team had over the past couple of years before it all went to #$%^$!

She is super talented, does a lot on the floor. great all around game I agree with Tomcat was really fun to watch and made a wise choice transferring to Louisville with all that was going on. Probably a lot more ceiling in her game as well

It's a systemic issue in the WNBA. There aren't enough roster spots for incoming players so rookies, if they make it one year, may very well lose their job next season for whatever reason an organization can come up with. The league needs two more teams.

The money in women’s basketball seems to be overseas.

He was a terrible coach, underachieved and a toxic ego-driven personality and Wildhack had no clue about everything in The Athletic article. I hope Hillsman is never able to get a job in basketball again.

Underachieved? In what universe would what he have done at Syracuse be considered underachieving? If he wasn't a questionable human being, you'd have to marvel at what he was able to do here.

With the talent he brought in I would have thought they could have been a final eight team or better most of the years. He did go the finals once but underachieved many other years. Felt he was a great recruiter but the style of basketball he coached underachieved.

 

[orangenauburn]

What he did in getting talent here was impressive and an overachieving accomplishment.

Everything after the Championship game season was a mess - huge underachiever with the talent he recruited post FF season.

With all the injuries on the Mystics, Emily saw more minutes today and had a impressive game.

Emily Engstler scores career-high 23, grabs 9 rebounds as Mystics beat reeling Wings 97-69​

 

[KellySyracuse]

Good to see Engstler get some playing time. I'm stilled pissed at how Q treated her, it was beyond deplorable.

Emily Engstler’s career day helps the Mystics soar past the Wings

"When a flurry of baskets and assists by Emily Engstler prompted the Dallas Wings to call a timeout late in the second quarter Saturday afternoon, her Washington Mystics teammates took turns invading her space. Some shouted their enthusiasm. Others offered exuberant shoves. Later, Karlie Samuelson put her arm around Engstler and affectionately called her a dog.


The depleted Mystics ran away from the struggling Wings for a 97-69 victory at Entertainment and Sports Arena as Engstler — a 2022 lottery pick who has bounced around the WNBA, in which roster spots are scarce — finished with career highs of 23 points and three three-pointers.
