Good interview with Lut Williams. Interesting that she deferred all of the business discussions about turning pro to Coach Ross at the beginning during the NCAAs and that she wanted to run for NIKE with the rest of the A&T alumni but that Adidas was going to take better care of her "on and off the track" as she describes it.

I agree. I find her response to NIL and whether or not it was considered in her decision to be concerning.

Concerning because she wasn't aware of NIL and NCAA ruling. Seems to me that should've been a consideration before making such a major decision.

Nah like it or not Sturgis was on her way out and to the Pro's right after her performance at the NCAA Championships , making the Olympic team would have been Icing on the cake for her . She made millions by turning Pro why waste her time with peanuts . Hell she was focused on her craft that NIL was not even on her radar LOL. Come on man really .

I'm not saying that I know all the nuances that went into her decision. Apparently, I don't know any LOL. I know the NIL factor is new. I just thought it was interesting that she seemed totally oblivious to what it is. While it may not be a game changer, I'm a fan of being informed.

I can understand that, but all people are not the same.
