PRIOR TO NC STATE:
COACH MOORE'S TAKE:
"Jada is someone who has the great combination of length and athleticism. I think her best days are ahead of her, and she has a very high ceiling. She is going to be able to run the floor and score on the block, and I think we are going to be able to expand her game as we go. Initially, she gives us depth inside and with her athleticism, I think she will be able to get to the rim and finish. She can also score in transition and defensively she will be able to match up pretty well with a "4" or a "5" because of her length and speed. She is another player who really fills a need beginning next year."
