Great article on Bethany Donaphin and how she gets it done for the WNBA. Loads of tasteful nuggets in here: https://andscape.com/features/wnba-exec-...he-league/

And what is the deal with the StanfordWBB social media posts that don't recognize Dijonai as a former Stanford player?

She's not counted in this gostanford article either.

She transferred (with some unknown but fairly obvious conflict with Tara and/or Stanford) and she identifies her college as Baylor.  If she identifies as a Baylor alum, I don't see any reason that we should claim her as our own.  I think it is extremely disingenuous of her when she occasionally claims that she is being dissed when she identifies as a Baylor alum not a Stanford alum.  She made her choice.  I don't think we need to look any deeper than that for Stanford moving on.

In what context does Dijonai identify "her college" as Baylor?  Her social media shows both schools. Totally normal for someone who earned degrees at two different schools. Link: Dijonai's Instagram Account

Tiger Woods and Sophia Smith each only competed at Stanford for 2 years and Stanford has no problem claiming them.  Like Kiki, Dijonai completed her Stanford degree before she transferring. I don't understand treating an athlete as "persona non-Stanford" based on their choice of grad school.

Also, Harvard had no problem claiming McKenzie Forbes when she was drafted by the Sparks.  Forbes is a Harvard grad, end of story. It doesn't matter that she attended USC for grad school. Harvard Basketball's Instagram Account

No mention of Stanford: https://www.wnba.com/player/1630096/dijonai-carrington

No mention of Stanford… except for the 42 lines of text in the College Career portion of the About DiJonai section in her linked WNBA bio.

I’m not sure why the hostility toward her for leaving, when it seemed really clear she wasn’t going to get the opportunities at Stanford for her final year that she got at Baylor. And at least her departure wasn’t obviously going to be a massive blow to the following year’s team, like a certain departure this year will be…
