Since none of us actually know who will be healthy on day 1, it is actually impossible to answer this question at this point. We can all guess and assume, but that's about it. So assuming for the moment that Azzi, Caroline and Aubrey will not be available on Day 1, the my educated guess at a starting five would be Paige, Ash, Kaitlyn, Ice and Jana. I have left KK and Sarah out of the starting five because we don't need three point guards out there. Ashlynn was the Big East Freshman of the Year. That alone should be worthy of a starting position on Day 1. Neither Sarah or Jana have any experience in a UConn uniform, but Jana has at least been exposed to the program for a year. If Ice (who I wasn't high on) improves over where she left off at the end of last season, she could be hard to get out of the starting five. I expect KK (who I think is terrific and going to an outstanding point guard) to get plenty of minutes spelling whomever needs a break. Sarah, if she's as good as we expect her to be, will get plenty of minutes as well. As for the other freshman, I just don't know enough about them except for high school highlight clips.
Wow! I honesty didn't take the poll until after posting this. Very nice to see that most of you agree with me.
