Message: [QUOTE="Lorcan, post: 5105644, member: 8861"] I think the Youtube videos from last season will shed too much light on what to expect of this year's Michigan. Michigan lost a huge part of their roster from last year, including Laila Phelia (Texas), Cameron Williams (Miami), Chyra Evans (Utah). Guard Jordan Hobbs is the only returning player from their top six rotation last year. Michigan doesn't look like they will pose much of a challenge in the post for South Carolina, so I'd expect your posts to be able to dominate even though they are relatively inexperienced compared to years past. Michigan will likely be in a re-building year in which they look to talented newcomers Syla Swords and Olivia Olson to develop into key contributors who enable Michigan to compete. Given the relative lack of post experience, I think you can expect Michigan to play a four guard lineup at times - and there were reports of Michigan pressing early and often in their exhibition game --- so not quite sure what to expect as they take the court against the mighty Gamecocks in Vegas. I fully expect South Carolina to crush this Michigan team, and I daresay, it won't be pretty. [/QUOTE]
