Let's clear something up right quick. Better yet let me say this, just because you play hard does not mean you are skilled. I think Cox plays very hard and she is bigger than everyone so you put those 2 together and it's hard for a high school player to match up with her. Now this is also why i say she will have the hardest time transitioning to college.....that will not get her by in college. I was in Russia watching the games and it showed over there.
There were a couple of coaches and scouts with the USA who begin to question the same thing. I feel that a lot of fans get caught up in the ranking boards and cant come to grips that they can be wrong and that there are other motives when the rankings are released. Read the last article that was put our on Miller and it totally contradicts what happens to Boykin.
Look all i can do is go by what i watch with my on eyes and that's it. At the end of the day everyone is entitle to there opinion and after that we just have to watch and see
There was soooo much I was about to posts to disagree with you on . Here are just four things- 1.) do you realize that Cox hasn't signed yet with UCONN so- many of the people that reply to you have no skin in the debate whether Joyner or Cox is better? So why should anyone be mad about that?
Secondly, now that you've come out and said Cox has no skills, do you have a link for any other recruiting service that agrees with you on that?
Third- I've watched Lauren Cox for about 10 minutes over the past two years. And you said Cox has no skills but in my limited time seeing her- my evaluation is that Cox will be an all-american at least once, be drafted 1st round in the wnba because she'll be able to score in the post, pass from the post, nail her free throws at a decent clip, rebound the ball at least decent and block shots. These things I've mentioned requires skills. We'll see in time whose evaluation is better.
Fourth- and just watching the clips you provided - imo Joyner will never be a pg.
