I would love for any player to prove me wrong if I disagree on something like this, but I just disagree. Having said that, I don't think there's a big gap separating our top players, and Bria is one of them. It's not like "Maya and then everyone else" this year.

Also, listening to Geno tonight, he is consistently high on Kelly and what she does, and also he mentioned that her shooting is vastly improved. At the same time, he mentioned that Bria was getting on his nerves and that she needs to develop/mature to better handle when things don't go well. Re: KML, he was over the top with praise. I have never heard him speak like this about a freshman before, ever. All in all, the things I heard tonight would only reinforce what I said in my earlier post.

But hey, it's all pre-season speculation anyway :D We'll see how things look in the next few weeks.

I don't really know why Bria doesn't get the respect she deserves here. But it's really kind of strange.

He said Bria got on his nerves last season too, and yet she played more minutes than any other freshman, ever. Usually, if he's picking on a kid. It's a good thing.
 
I remain convinced that KML will be in the starting lineup by January and, once she is, she will be there for the duration.

Who's place will she take? Not Stef. Anybody else. Anybody.

Somebody else can start a poll. Not my thing.

If people were saying she sucked, that would be strange. Obviously I don't see those kinds of opinions on the BY. Because I said she is one of our best players, but disagreed with your opinion that she is not *the* best, that is not adequately 'respectful' of Bria? I guess it was also disrespectful of the AP to put Stef and Tiff on the pre-season honorable mention list, but not Bria? How dare they? She got BE FOY last year, after all, not Stef. But they didn't. Not a big deal in my book.

From what we're getting from the coaches so far this season, it seems like either Tiff or Stef is the best player on the floor for us. So far. But we don't have a clear standout like we did last year. The whole 'who is best' thing is likely going to fluctuate a lot--it's just very early.

Thanks for the wealth of info.

If Tiff is 50% better than last year, take Stricklen off the AA list and insert #3 in National Flag Blue.

Tiff always looks good in practice... she knows the routine. Save some of it for the real games.
 
I am not sure who our best player is. I'm not sure about CD because oc her knee, but I think one can make a case for:

Tiffany
Stef
Kelly
Bria
Kaleena

I have a hunch it's KML. If not now, by March.

I like Bria Hartley over everyone except Dolson (thats only because she's closer to the basket).

This would be my guess with emphasis on guess. We will find out on Thursday!
