I told Geno that 9 players getting 10+ meaningful minutes per game from day one would almost certainly guarantee UConn their 12th NC. I also told Geno that I would leave it up to him who started each game. He agreed and thanked me for my expert opinions.

There is a freshman named Jackson coming in that is supposed to be pretty good. If she is as good as advertised, I can see her starting... sliding Balogun over to the 4.. and having Corosadale as the 6th woman.

1. Raven (health willing - going by ‘17 with Ty Harris starting as a frosh and ‘19 with Destanni off the bench, I believe Dawn would prefer having Fletcher coming off the bench leading the younger subs and Raven starting alongside the vets).
2. Zia
3. Brea
4. V
5. Aliyah

What about Puckett in place of Saurez? Just curious on your thoughts about that possibility.

Any combination of players or are you talking about picking the starting 5 for the team you root for?

Well, we all agree on 4 slots with PG being the only question.

IMHO, Fletcher will start in the early season. Her experience (though in a different system) will provide a more calming influence. Plus, Raven may not be in great playing shape early in the season after her knee surgery. Raven may take over the starting role later in the season.

Also, we heard a lot last year about the excellent chemistry between Raven and Kamilla. I could see them being paired on the court together a lot (early) as the first players off the bench to rest Boston and Fletcher for significant minutes.

So interesting. Hope Diamond can have a full recovery. Once she and Faith get back it's really such a deep roster.

Sellers coming off the bench? Interesting. I really liked how she stepped up last season while Maryland was dealing with injuries.

Sellers makes sense coming off the bench because she can guard every position except the post.

Nice.
1. Floor General, can do it all.
2. 3s, midrange
3. Slasher, and shooter (3 will get better)
4. Rebounder and banger. Midrange getting better.
5. Rebounder and can hit the outside shot. Floor stretcher.
All we need is good ball movement and player movement without the ball.
