From my biased perspective, if Talia moves for any basketball playing perspective (playing time, rest of team mates, style of team play, etc) that is insanity. Does anyone think that Kennedy Brown, Taylor Jones, and others can show great gains by changing teams?
She is an outstanding player who is extremely unlikely to make the WNBA, but can have a great career overseas. That is the likely outcome no matter where she concludes her college career. It is likely with the key role she plays for OSU that it would enhance her pro chances to stay another year. Playing another year with great team mates that she now has will only give her more opportunities to shine.
However, if she is moving on because of (a) family considerations-finances? illness? etc? or (b) because she knows other key elements of the team (i.e. Raegan and Timea) have already decided to move on, then those are perhaps wise choices.
However, sometimes loyalty pays off over short term gain.
Look at what Aleah gained by going the route with the Beavs, then trying the WNBA without success, and then within two years being hired as an assistant coach at OSU.
Look forward to what other blog participants share on this topic.
