First - the daughter has already committed to another school. This happened before Mom became BYU's coach.

From reports we've heard from others who saw the interview, Mom thinks that commitment is a thing. And has encouraged her daughter to maintain her commitment (or something like that). I don't have a problem with that. I also wouldn't have a problem them saying that circumstances changed and they changed their mind.

So - I'm not saying she must always remain committed. I'm not saying she shouldn't. I'm saying that if commitment means something to her, that's fair and I'm OK with her not switching.

Second - Mom has been coaching the daughter already for AAU, right? I would have NO problem with a daughter saying that she loves her mom, but has been coached by her for her whole career and would like to experience something else. See what she can learn from another coach to expand her skills and knowledge, etc. That all is acceptable to me.

I guess I'm saying that there are different reasons to commit to one school or another. Maybe you really want your mom to coach you, maybe you really don't. Either feeling could drive the decision. And neither has anything to do with BYU.

Anyway - I guess I'm saying that from what we know, this girl's commitment elsewhere doesn't really mean much, other than she wanted to go elsewhere.
