That sounds about right preseason. It will be interesting to see how that changes come January...

That's amazing--3 players on all 40 ballots.

Thomas and Sims tied for the 5th spot.

I think that Sims is as good as Skylar.

I'll be interested in seeing what Chiney adds this year. Is she really the 4th best player in America? Nneka clearly was at that level; can Chiney step up? My guess is that she will be better and more assertive. My question relates to her shooting and offensive game.

I'm not totally sold on Chiney either. I think she will have a tough time this year without Nneka. I think she is a good player, but not at this level, this year, IMO. She will have gaudy stats though because the Pac-12 is so weak but I will be surprised to see her on the AA team in the Spring. I think Stanford might struggle a little bit this year.

I think there will be a lot more UConn names on that near the middle of the season.

And if not, and they are undefeated (maybe one loss to Baylor) than that just shows how well rounded and balanced the team is!
