I have no issue with Day-Wilson being left off, I can't think of who she would replace on this list. I didn't see much of Syracuse last year, but since Carr is a fifth year player, I'd give her the nod over Day-Wilson. It's gonna be interesting to see how Fair performs this year in a higher level league.
I'm looking forward to seeing how she does as well. I enjoyed watching her when she played at Buffalo. The fact some of her team mates also transferred to Syracuse may help make the transition easier.

Tennessee couldn't guard her in the NCAA tournament, she and Hyman who was the best player on Syracuse last year will give every team nightmares.

I did say a few weeks (months?) ago, that Duke would be dog walking some opponents this season. Looks like Coach Lawson listened to me, and boom.. here we are.

On a serious note,

Duke Puppy KIndergarten

The Duke Puppy Kindergarten is a longitudinal study funded by the National Institute of Health to assess the impact of different rearing strategies on the behavior and cognitive development of assistance dogs. The goal of the project is to increase the supply of assistance dogs and to see more dogs graduate and serve more people.

Just when I was thinking I would have to wait until Nov 7 to see my team in action, this pops up on my Twitter

Not only do I get to see my favorite squad... I get to stop by the best donut shop in NC on the way there. Daily Donuts here I come :)

Wings are always tricky for me. Is it exclusively the 3, or does the 2 position count?

I have the same challenge. Based on this list, with Citron included I'm guessing players who play the 2 position can be considered.

Some teams play three guards on the court and one of those guards who is either a combo guard or a two guard has to play and guard the wing spot. Cam Swartz and Kennedy Todd-Williams are two examples of that. Citron played the wing when she was in the lineup with Miles, Mabrey, Westbeld and Dodson.

I'm pretty big on Paulina Paris. I think she may have played in an All Star game last year with Azzi and a bunch of highly touted HS players and stood out. This was a good read

Also wanted to put the list for the conference best 4s. I disagree with the order, but not the players.

What would be your ranking for comparison?

I'd have Boyd, Soule and Westbeld for 1-3. Haven't seen enough of Utsby and Jones' game however.

Maybe I'm a bit bias after watching a lot of the 3 on 3 this summer, but I really liked what I saw from utsby. She's pretty athletic (can dunk) and is almost like a 3/4. She was really good last season as a sophomore and I just like her versatility the most. So I'd put her at 1 and then Jada Boyd at 2. Not sure if NC State could be a top 2 seed like they've been recently, but with her coming back I don't think being a top 10 team is out of the question. She's going to get major minutes. Then I'd put Maddy at 3, Soule at 4 and Jones at 5. I like Soule. She's super athletic and plays with a huge motor being undersized. I just worry, worry isn't even the right word, but her fit will be interesting on v tech. Similar to u I haven't seen Jones game enough. But it's all preference on my end, the list is good.

Wow............she's ahead of Boyd in your opinion? I'll have to see if I can find footage as I don't remember her being that impactful during the tournament.

I get your concern about the fit at VT for Soule, but I think Brooks will utilize her properly. Their roster has had bad luck with forwards after Baines transferred. Now it seems like he has more depth and I believe Soule will help get Kitley freed up a bit more.

Yeah...I think most of those "4s" are guards.

All these players played the 4 despite the 4 not being their natural position. These rankings show that most ACC teams don't have traditional lineups.

Surprised Richardson is getting the nod ahead of Day-Wilson considering her season last year. And you know how I feel about her ;)

Maybe they are saving Day-Wilson for the Canadian media days. :D I knew Taylor would be there, figured the other would be either Balogun or DeJesus. Not sure what all goes into those decisions. You see Georgia Tech has two transfers coming.

I hear you. Just thought they'd want to have their FOY on hand to help with the hype for the upcoming season.
