SEC 25-26

I'd be shocked if SoCar isn't back in the FF. Your team is a beast again this year. As is UCONN. And Texas tough too. And I think UCLA probably too. Just like last year these are the 3-4 beasts.

Not disagreeing, but I think the fear is the bench. Someone said something in regards to if an injury happens... Ya know the rest

Yeah, you don't add a scoring machine like Latson and expect missing the Final Four for the first time since . . .

Depth is the question. We only have 11 players on the roster.

Point: Raven, Maddie

SG: Latson, Tessa, freshman TBD maybe Makeer

Wing: Tessa, maybe Dauda or Kitts in big lineup , a freshman TBD maybe McDowell

Forward: Edwards rotating with Kitts, Dauda 3rd

Center: Okot, Tac, Kitts in Small lineup, Dauda

Dawn has a lot of work to do in November to get ready for the back to back with Duke and/or Texas/ UCLA . Hopefully the 8 deep will be settled before the SEC season kicks in.

Srsly? You didn’t really release these awful words and ideas into the ether, did you? Karma has eyes everywhere.

If South Carolina is concerned about their depth, I don't know what that says about the rest of the programs 🤣

Maybe a virtual sage burning will help cleanse the negativity. 😉

Any Oklahoma Sooner fans here? Curious to hear their take on the season. I caught a social media video of the team during a workout session. Aaliyah has a great basketball IQ. I love her energy. The future of women's basketball is in great hands.

They should be concerned. Dawn has awesome talent on her bench. But it is perhaps a bit mismatched. In the front court last season, too much pressure had to be placed on Chloe to provide the muscle in the post next to Joyce and Sania, and she was exposed in the tournament. This wasn’t fair to her. With Ashlyn stepping back next season this same problem looms and now without Sania. There are backups who can fill in for her and give Chloe some help, but each one has a huge question mark.

A similar depth problem looms in the backcourt. The starting three of Latson Johnson & Johnson look really solid, but there isn’t much backing them up. Maddy McDaniel looks really promising but her defense is occasionally sketchy and she is foul prone. Will a freshman step up? Who knows?

If everything breaks Dawn’s way, she could run the table in the SEC and make a final four run. And I don’t doubt Dawn’s ability to find the right path to this result. But things could go south as well and it wouldn’t take much to derail this train.

I didn't realize SC only had 11 players on their roster; thought they had 13-14 at least.

I think Dawn went undefeated the last time we only had 11. But, yeah, it's a bit scary

Team is really going to have to get used to playing without our key player Watkins though. Expect growing pains.

If you aren't four deep with McD's AAs I'm not sure why you even suit up.

Could Arkansas be a team that surprises? And does better than expected.
