Message: [QUOTE="Rb335, post: 4092616, member: 2685"] I wrote this on the board a few years ago, and nothing has been shown to make me think otherwise. Olivia seems to lack the coordination to be an elite player. She does things on the floor that just look incredibly unnatural. I don't think there is much you can do to change that. She has worked really hard to get better, and I do believe she has made many strides from her freshman season. But she definitely has come close to reaching her ceiling at this point. IMO. Dorka seems to have that natural athleticism and coordination. A smoother offensive player at first glance. I don't really care who starts. I've always liked the idea of having a game changing type player come off the bench because it throws a new look at the opposition. Especially if the starters come out flat. For that reason, I am fine with Dorka coming off the bench. In either scenario, she is going to play a lot. And in either scenario, we will greatly benefit from them both providing productive minutes. Also, these preseason and initial games really don't mean a heck of a lot. For instance, Mir scored 10 points against UMass Lowell, and the board was praising this new freshman. She went on to have a very small impact on our in game success last year. I always try to wait to form opinions on who is going to provide what until we play our first quality opponent. [/QUOTE]
