Message: [QUOTE="TheFarmFan, post: 3069303, member: 9403"] Just saw your post, nwhoop. Jerome really isn't well suited to be the primary post up on defense - she's only 6'2", she's not especially fast, and she gets beat to the basket fairly often. Coffee is 6'5" and as a senior just knows where she needs to be to keep Anigwe away from the basket. It doesn't show as much in the stat line, but she's been doing a pretty good job of keeping Anigwe 5-10" away from the basket on a lot of possessions, because she's hard to get around. Jerome is better as a high post/wing, but oh yeah, she's behind the presumptive All-American in Smith... And against Anigwe, we really need height, so that means 6'5" Coffee, 6'4" Smith, and 6'3" (and lengthy) Dodson are better options. Fourth Quarter looks to be playing out as I had hoped/expected - Cal is losing steam and our ability to bench our starting players to keep them fresh for the fourth is now paying dividends. What I did not expect was that Williams would suddenly find her long-distance stroke again. That's been huge. [/QUOTE]
