My brain fart. I meant Griffin.

I don't subscribe to the idea that the position number dictates what a player does. Stewart was a 4 and roamed on the perimeter despite being a borderline 3 point shooter until her senior year. She was about a 32% for her first 3 years and I don't remember defenses sagging off her.

Are you suggesting that Collier had an effective 3 point shot and just failed to use it?  You better have something to back that up because she never showed one in 4 years. And if Collier could play as a 4 then why not Griffin? Same height and I'd say that Griffin is more athletic.   4 or 3 makes little difference at UConn. I doubt Geno says to his players:  "Today, Collier, you are a 4 so you can't shoot 3's but next week you will play the 3 and do all the things you did as a 4 except you will need to shoot 3's.  Position roles at UConn are very fluid. In a switching man to man we often see a UConn 4 switching to guard a 2 outside and often a 3 is asked to guard a 4.
