Georgia's Lady Bulldogs travel to Starkville, Miss., this afternoon to face Mississippi State's Lady Bulldogs in SEC action.
State presents one of the most potent offensive trios in the league.
"(LaToya) Thomas gets a great deal of the attention, but it goes way beyond her," Andy Landers said. "Tan White and (Jennifer) Fambrough give them a three-pronged offensive attack. Any one of them can kill you."
Yet Another Homecoming
This afternoon's trip to Mississippi represents a homecoming for Lady Bulldog redshirt freshman Ebony Felder, who expects a strong contingent of family and friends to make the trek to Starkville from her hometown of Jackson.
In December and January, Michigan natives Tawana McDonald, Kara Braxton and Kim Braxton enjoyed two trips to their home state.
Felder will receive the same treatment. Georgia returns to the Magnolia State in just 11 days when the Lady Dogs travel to Oxford to take on Ole Miss on Jan. 24.
Felder is very familiar with a number of Mississippi State's players, having played AAU basketball with several members of the MSU roster.
Also returning to her home state today is Georgia administrative assistant Kim "K.T." Thompson, a native of Pearl. Thompson lettered for the Lady Bulldogs from 1993-96 and is in her fourth season in her current position.
