Message: [QUOTE="Bills Fan, post: 5105407, member: 8262"] First let me say that Ash is one of my very favorite Huskies and that she could or should be a starter at the beginning of the year. Regarding playing time she has a couple of obstacles to overcome: 1. she is very limited in her "position." she is not a point guard and is really too short to play the #3 spot. The next obstacle is just the number of highly talented guards Geno will have available and want to give time to. KK and KC will get almost all of the minutes at the PG. While Paige can get time at the SF, she is probably best at the SG so there go some of Ash's time. Then you have Azzi hopefully coming back NLT mid-Dec. The SG spot is AZ's natural position, she really is not a PG and is too short for the SF position. In addition to all the competition for time at the SG (#2) we also have two outstanding FR who will need rotation minutes at the SG-Allie primarily at the SG and Morgan splitting time at the SG and SF spots. When all of this is taken into account, even an improved Ash, while maybe a starter, will see a substantial reduction in her playing time. One helpful item regarding Ash's time on the court is Geno's often stated trust in her in any tight games, I see her PT at important times of the game, especially the last quarter and she will never look tired.
