Ranking the top 25 players in women's college basketball

Eight players from the SEC, including No. 1 Rhyne Howard of Kentucky, lead the way in our list of the best 25 players in the country.

Should temper our enthusiasm to see that the top nine players of the 25 are not at UConn. Their claim that Boston is only 4th best is bizarre. Easily THE most important player in the nation. She was great last year, and will only be better this year.

Further, of our three players listed in the top 25, only one has actually played for UConn before. Isn't that an odd position for us to be in!

Nice list, though I'd rerank a few of those (I think Rennia Davis and Rickea Jackson will be first or second team AA's), and definitely add Charli Collier. Glad to see Ki and Jones get some love.

Remember these are only opinions of mediocre sports writers...nothing to worry about here...

My enthusiasm doesn't depend on the thoughts of people who are wrong constantly.

Uh, I’m still pretty sure things are decided by the best team, not player rankings. Fairly obvious that Uconn will not take a significant back seat to anyone talent wise over the next 4/5 years so let’s see the team. If they have added the right ingredients, which for me means mental toughness, they will be more than fine.

I'm hoping with Paige in the game that she will get the ball inside to Liv on a regular basis and Liv becomes a dominant force on both ends of the court. And a Top 10 player!
Of course I do think that every "guard" on the team will be able to feed Liv and I am only singling out Paige due to her known passing prowess.

 

[Paul1969]

Unusual seeding but I agree with #1.

 

[CocoHusky]

A couple notable omission IMO and who I would take off the list to add that person.
Charli Collier-Texas-Zia Cooke South Carolina
Natasha Mack OK St-Micaela Kelly Central Michigan
Ayoka Lee Kansas State-Lindsey Pulliam Northwestern
Vivian Gray-Texas Tech-Haley Jones Stanford
Kate Cain Nebraska-Kiara Lewia Syracuse
Didi Richards- Baylor (DPOY) -Kiana Williams-Stanford
Ashley Owusu-Md- Ali Patberg- Indiana

 

[TerpWomenFan]

Someone should post this on the General thread.

I think Olivia should be included in the Top 25, perhaps over Paige and/or Evina. I wouldn't include Evina until she steps on the court and able to play 20+ minutes. Paige because she hasn't played a college game.

But UConn is the only school who has 3 in their top 25, and one of only three schools with more than one (South Carolina 2, Stanford 2).

Destanni Henderson is seriously being slept on. I feel like she is a NPOY kind of player if she stays healthy.

 

[huskyd]

Gee. Who's the ONLY freshman on the list? Hasn't played a game and already a force.

Huh? I’m sure she’ll be better and is slept on. But NPOY?

 

[WFFL]

Ashley Owosu Will be an AA. She Chelsea Gray reincarnated !

Then there is the very real possibility that it will be ONO feeding the slashers from the high post. What makes this season so interesting is that we know all the players but really haven't a clue about where, with whom and how much they will each play. ONO and Muhl seem to be the only ones with a fixed position and Gabriel & Chassion are the only ones not expected to get minutes. Other than that it's all a mystery, and yet we still have this team in the FF.

In Geno we trust. Good thing Geno has this board to advise him.

Let's settle down a bit....

This list will look quite different in March!

j66 -- You forgot Arkansas. They have two players on the list.

Thanks - fixed it.

 

[HuskyNan]

Considering the focus on scoring in this article, I might have called it The 25 Best Offensive Players. The top 25 basketball players is a different article

Reincarnated? I thought Chelsea Gray was still alive.
