Gamecocks 2022, Part II

[cockhrnleghrn]

She has her OV this weekend so I assume she'll announce shortly afterwards

Isn't the timing interesting with an SC/NC scrimmage in Columbia this weekend? Who wouldn't love to see that scrimmage at the old Coliseum/Practice facility.

 

[TC22]

Would love to see the results of that scrimmage.

Would love to see the results of that scrimmage.

UNC is one of those programs to watch.

I do wonder if this is an OOC game that might be returning to the schedule in next few years.

Wonder if Watkins is taking in the scrimmage considering she’s down to both schools? I think seeing them play will help her decide better .

A scrimmage decides nothing

A scrimmage decides nothing

Obviously… lol it was a joke

True, but it does give Watkins the chance to compare to see what kind of team UNC is, what they have, and how she could fit in with that Tarheel program, where she wouldn't have much, if any, post depth in front of her.

 

[GCKSFN4L]

They are looking pretty good in the clip.

 

[SCspur]

They’re going to put on a show!

 

[Gamecockfan77]

Looks like a respectable showing by UNC. Early lead and only 71-61 near the end.

though I guess you don't really know the format. probably wasn't a straight exhibition right?

 

[Gamecockfan77]

Does not look like the Benedict exhibition is televised on SEC+. Anyone know differently?

Bree Hall looks to be ahead of where I was thinking.

Has any team ever had so many quality shot blockers? From the scrimmage clip we saw at least Boston, Cardoso and Amihere all swat shots, plus Saxson is an excellent shot blocker and I wouldn't be surprised if Feagin is too based on her size.

And Rivers (#44) came up behind the Tarheel player at the 20-second mark and swatted her attempt away from behind. Rivers is 6-1, so she's a good off-the-ball stealth blocker while players are focusing on Boston or Cardoso. She has long arms too, and is a solid perimeter defender, averaging over 5 steals per game as a high school senior.....

Feagin averaged 4 blocks per game over 118 career high school games (455 blocks), so she's definitely adept at smacking opposing tosses.

We will still need to see more to see if the offensive dynamic improves substantially, but the defense at least should be pretty stout this season....

Bree Hall looks to be ahead of where I was thinking.

One of Dawn's earliest reports said that Bree came to camp the most all-round ready of the 4 frosh - Offensively and defensively - especially the latter.

I think she has the potential to be huge for the team, she's tall and defensive minded and appears to not be afraid to shoot it. Sounds like a good reserve for Beal.

Her high school highlights didn’t feel that much different than Saniya’s. I’ve felt for a while she might be getting slept on, particularly with ESPN’s initial rating they put on her (I forgot what it was, believe it was in the twenties). So it’s not a total surprise she’s already showing out in practices. During the intrasquad event last month, I took notice of her being quite active all over the court on D. She appeared comfortable out there.

And in the backcourt you also could add in Saniya Rivers and Bree Hall who both have impressive wing spans giving them the potential to be shot blockers too.

Call me crazy... but Duke 2015-16. Elizabeth Williams (top 10 shot blocker in WCBB history), Azura Stevens, Oderah Chidom, Kendall Cooper, and Amber Henson.

Hall looked really good in the intersquad.

figuring out exactly what she is will be fun.

not sure if she's a lot like anyone we've had.

It's not broadcasted and I couldn't find any radio either. The best you can do is look at the clips they upload on Twitter.
