I think Michelle will make (the cut) and I think she'll do it dramatically.

The ultimate goal was for Michelle to stay in school, get better and someday be able to be the best player in the world, male or female. I'm not sure that's changed, I think she still wants to do that. But I think the process has changed because of all the outside elements involved.

The argument, of course, is that Michelle is not learning to win, but I don't buy that. When you are a pioneer and you take chances, people expect less in terms of performance. Style becomes more important than substance. You can not always succeed as a pioneer and still be hailed.

Luke is nursing a calf injury, but we will monitor his situation closely,

If we keep playing the way we are defensively, and competing, eventually it will turn our way. It has to.
