Sophomore BYU guard Shaylee Gonzales has always had a knack for business, and she’s using it to benefit financially from the NCAA’s relaxation of rules regarding how an athlete can use their name, image and likeness.
But being so much in the public eye does have its drawbacks, Gonzales said. Lately, she’s taken a break from posting on social media because she is feeling “burnt out,” and hopes her fans understand why she’s taking time off. And although she’s now in a position to supplement her scholarship money with her following, it’s never been about the attention for her.
“I think it’s important to show the ups and downs so people can see life’s not just all rainbows and butterflies,” Gonzales said. Candice Gonzales described her daughter as a kind person who puts others before herself, and also someone who cares what people think of her. She thinks her daughter has been able to compartmentalize in such a way that she understands which opinions matter, and which don’t.
Candice Gonzales remembered a sequence during her daughter’s sophomore year of high school when, as the clock was running out, she dropped to her knees to recover the ball and, from that position, shot it from just inside halfcourt and made it. Gonzales has two more years of eligibility left at BYU, and she plans to play out both of them. She did, however, acknowledge that those plans could always change. Her dream is to play professional basketball and is leaning toward going overseas to she can feed her love of traveling and also spark her creative side.
