Message: [QUOTE="SECbbfan24, post: 2967105, member: 9360"] LSU fan here but I do follow MSU closely. Bibby is a good defender, wouldn't say she is an elite defender but she moves her feet and is usually in the correct positions on defense that Vic wants her to be. She has her hands up constantly and disrupts passing lanes. If you watch AEH on defense its dramatically different. Not saying AEH is a bad player, she is good and is a hard worker but she clearly isn't ready now defensively, its going to take time. As another poster said in this thread, he is like Geno in that he will not have you on the floor long or at all if you can't defend properly. No question AEH can help tremendously from shooting from the outside and she will play a lot more down the stretch as she gets to where Vic wants her to be on D. She will be an asset to this team. As for Vic's daughter... she was a tough defender and worked hard on the defensive end, add in the fact that she can knock down 3's of course she was always on the floor. Vic only players upper classmen? McCowan, Vivians, Bibby, Williams, etc all say significant time as freshmen. AEH is seeing some significant time right now and she will throughout the rest of the season. If you are going to crack the starting lineup for Vic your defense and rebounding better be up to his standard. Has nothing to do with wait your turn. He isn't throwing kids out there who can't defend for crap. There is talent on the bench, Carter, Wiggins, Taylor, AEH. All are essentially freshmen with little experience but they just aren't there yet but are on there way to be. I can promise you kids like Rickea Jackson, Promise Taylor, and Esmery Martinez will be playing significantly next season and start throughout it. Vic clearly knows what he is doing. [/QUOTE]
