As others have noted, we will have openings at the guard slots, especially her second year and beyond.
In addtion, she is one player about whom I have little sense as to how good she is. Her rankings range from 10-20 to 100 or lower. The kids can score. I think she may have both starter and star potential. I don't see her as a permanent bench player. I also am concerned about MoJeff's durability. Saniya will get playing time at UConn one way or another.
I'm with Mil on this - hard to tell how good she really is. She's slender, but an absolute scoring machine. Having said that she's rated about 75 per HG and 91 per BS. Her prolific scoring has come in a relatively weak league, and while she was invited to the USA team trials, she did not make the team. So it's hard to tell just how good she is or just how much potential she actually has.
I tend to believe she's an under the radar type of kid who is a late bloomer. From her scoring numbers alone, I think she's probably a legit top 20 kid, but that's just my opinion. One thing you can't deny is that she knows how to put the ball in the basket. How many times has Geno joked about other teams that are unable to score even when they have open looks - because they are athletes, and not necessarily scorers.
With regards to Moriah's durability, she's certainly very slender, but guards don't necessarily get banged around as much(certainly not like Stef and Kiah in the post). Tiff was very slender when she first got to UCONN, as was Brianna. I'm sure Mo will work on getting stronger as part of her fitness program. I can't speak to her stamina (and by extension durability) over a 35+ game season or how much of a toll it will take on her as a freshman - but I'm not worried in that we have plenty of depth this year. I think Geno is very happy to have the luxury of not NEEDING to rely on the freshmen like he has had to do in the past (especially like when Stef was a freshman and there was literally no one else)...
