Awesome interview. Jaden is very comfortable in her own skin as the saying goes. What a great ambassador for Baylor and just not on the basketball court. Loved her comments on coach Nicki and the staff - She mentioned how coach Nicki in the first week after taking the Baylor job helped her get her love for basketball back !!!!
It showed last year despite the nagging injuries. Can't wait to see a 100.0% Jaden Owens on the floor this season. Her comments on how much this team pushes each other hard but remain really good friends is very informative and mirrors other interviews where how much team chemistry this team has.
I found it very interesting that she wants to be Big 12 and National Defensive player of the year.... I agree with her politics comment, but I would not bet against her - she seems VERY motivated in that direction.

She is such a great recruiter because she loves what is being put together here and the culture of this team referenced by blueeyedbear. Hope she is Didi 2.0 in recruiting and D!
