Per the article it looks like Cooks is confirmed out for the year. Is Promise Taylor still dealing with injury issues?

JaMya will be BIG time if she can stay healthy. She use to be a top 20 recruit for a reason. Not surprised with Rickea, she will be one of MSUs go to scorers this year, her skill set is well beyond her class. Bibby will need time to shake off the rust.

Promise is a pipe dream to contribute much at this point.

Intriguing to see the freshmen being the biggest standouts so far between this summer and scrimmage. I don’t see how Vic will be able to keep any of em on the bench much.

Correct on S Cooks. Unless I missed something my understanding is there was never a waiver request for her and it has been confirmed that she will sit this season. That aside she is an amazing talent.
Yes P Taylor is still recovering. She didn’t look comfortable last night when she played.

I’ll be interested to see if a consistent starting five will emerge out of this group. There is talent but most everyone comes with some type of caveat.

Rickea was a highly regarded recruit. I'll be interested in seeing her play.

Throughout the Italy University Games and the Maroon v White scrimmage R Jackson has consistently been one of the top players. Based on that and my understanding of how she is doing in practice I don’t see anything change. She will play and be a key part of the plan this season.

Based on reports and from the clips I've seen I could see her being another Victoria Vivians in that she's a tall prolific scoring threat from day 1. Looks like she might be a better athlete than VV too. Excited to see her.

I am interested in how Carter and Morris do in the post this year. McCowan was a huge factor for MSU over the last few years and completely changed the way teams defended them.

I am interested in how Carter and Morris do in the post this year. McCowan was a huge factor for MSU over the last few years and completely changed the way teams defended them.

T McCowan was third on the team in field goal attempts but first in field goals made; shooting at a rate of 66%. She was also a 76% free throw shooter. If you counted only her offense rebounds she would have still finished second on the team in total rebounds behind A Howard. She made 18 more freethrows (160) than any other player attempted (A Howard with 142). Finally, she was fifth on the team with 32 assists. She was an incredibly efficient player and will definitely be missed.

I actually think Y Morris fits better what Coach Schaefer wants in the post. I’ll be interested to see how things develop.
