I think ND will already be loaded with PGs, including Nixon and Peoples.  I think that hurts them in recruiting Bueckers and Van Lith.

Can Paige and Hailey Van Lith play together?  They are doing very well together on the 3 x 3 team.   Paige can clearly be a combo guard, and Hailey Van Lith can shoot.  Could Bird and Taurasi co-exist in the same backcourt?  They win championships when they are together.

I’m not sure PB and Hailey Van Lith want to play on the same college team, but I bet Geno would be thrilled to get both and would make it work.  Geno really wants PB, but I think he also really likes Hailey Van Lith.  I’m not sold on Bueckers and Fudd going to ND to play with Brunelle.  Sure, it could happen, but I’m skeptical.  If PB goes to ND, Geno needs to get Hailey Van Lith (or equivalent) to offset that.

I’m not concerned at all about Hailey Van Lith’s height.  On a good day, Moriah was about 5’7”.  She won 2 Lieberman Awards, 1 National Defensive Player of the Year Award, and 4 National Championships.  Mo and Hailey Van Lith have different skill sets, but neither lets their height limit them.

I really think that Jasmine will be a phenomenal recruiter.  She has youth and street cred.  I think she can get Hailey Van Lith.
