I think this is interesting. I like all their returning players. I really like Leigha Brown and Phelia but it will be interesting to see if either can become a go-to player. I do think they are bit behind Ohio State, Iowa, Maryland, Indiana, and Nebraska but definitely a tourney team.
I don't take things that serious anymore. Kids will be kids
Someone made an edit but I don't think its LSU but I said the same thing consistently about Angel Reese. Again, I don't think she even visited yet and my buddy close to the program tells me whenever recruits are in town. She was supposed to visit LSU last summer but committed to Texas after her Baylor visit.
Even Katari Poole commented on her IG post. Don't think 2 LSU players would show that much interest if Lattimore hadn't visited LSU. Also saw that asst. coach Bob Starkey started following her.
I mean I hope they get her. Truth be told LSU needs more depth in the post and I think its clear adding her says a lot about the coaches trust in Gusters/Bartlett. Kim's words about those two in a interview this week didn't inspire much confidence. They added Reese and Williams, also have Sa'Myah Smith coming in. I think Kim will try to add as much talent as she possibly can and try to make it work. LSU's post play was not very good this past year although I do believe they did the most they could do with Trasi, Newby and Aifuwa.
My understanding is that Lattimore doesn't want to play in the post; that's one of the probable reasons she left Texas; seems like she wants to play out on the wing.
Texas
Reese is playing the 4, she even said during one of her IG lives that is what she is playing at LSU and wants to.
Lattimore in the wing won't work. I know Kim will have rotations when 3 bigs will be in though.
That is what is confusing. I can't see her playing the wing at LSU. Maybe her intentions or goals are different though than what is being spewed or thought of over the internet (not attacking anyone). Most of us never know the true reasons some of these kids transfer. My gut tells me Miami, but if she chooses LSU then great. I hope it works out for her.
If she chooses LSU its because she wants to make the WNBA and being coach by mulkey increases those chances versus being coached by Katie Meier apologize if i spelled her name wrong .
That will be fun against Boston/Saxton/Amihere or Cardoso. I think we will see that a lot more this year.
Lol gonna be fun. But lord SC front court is still very intimidating lol even with our upgrade in talent. But...... I think the matchup overall will be close still.
