Message: [QUOTE="DefenseBB, post: 4860144, member: 7492"] You know what they say about "ifs and buts". Juju chose that team knowing the concerns. Without a doubt, Hildago has had the better year according to any statistical measure. The problem is ND does not have an opportunity for any "marquee" wins except for Sat. Juju is really good but as noted, Hildago does it on both sides of the ball and her game has been consistent with the start of conference play. Given the limitations of Gottlieb's coaching, Massey has an expected record of 7-6 for USC for the rest of the year to finish at 20-9 while ND is predicted to go 22-7 and may win the ACC. Honestly, this is a two person race with Hildago having a clear lead over Watkins. These two are way, way ahead of Booker and Williams. Sorry to tell all my fellow BYers that yes, we can love both KK and Ash but their contributions are woefully behind these other Freshman as both KK and Ash have important but lesser roles on the UConn team that seeks title #12. Maybe Williams at LSU is the only other one whose teams aspirations have a similar aspirations of a title and is why her FOY candidacy is also doomed. She has Reese and Morrow as the two lead actors.
