Message: [QUOTE="oldhusky, post: 3737808, member: 9844"] I agree, the 22 class may be too early for a top ranked PG. You could argue we don't need a point guard for 4 years, and then will need two. Or one year earlier with a recruit willing to learn for a year. I think the two potential 2022 recruits most affected by Azzi's decision are Rice and Bransford. In the little I have seen of Rice she may be classified as a PG, but she has decent size, and looked like she could board and defend, perhaps being more like a Westbrook that could play 1-3. If Azzi didn't come here and Rice did, I think Kiki's minutes would have come more at the 2, and some at the 3. Many minutes at point guard were probably not in the cards for her. With Azzi's arrival the same may be true at the 2. Bransford sounds more like a tough, physical, penetrating 2. That might be a different skill set that could be a change of pace from Azzi, but because of Azzi her prospects are diminished greatly as well in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
