Deja Kelly hadn’t publicly discussed why she transferred from North Carolina to Oregon for her fifth college season, but she had plenty to say on social media Monday: "Being a leader, a face of a program is not easy, and it comes with a lot of BS a lot of people cannot handle," Kelly said. "So, I give kudos to myself for being able to handle all this stuff." (Tar Heel Tribune)
