Uconn's offense is potent when Ododa is at the high post! She looks so confident there as opposed to posting lower with her back to the basket. And that's because she isn't by nature a 5! She's a 4. She likes getting the ball on cuts to the rim. She takes a lot of heat, but I feel she has spent 4 years trying to be a player that she isn't and never was.

UCONN offensively still doesn't have a natural 5...not even 6' 5" Deberry. She's a 4 too. Piath? Ice Brady is another 4. Just because someone has the height to be a 5...doesn't make it so. If Uconn gets some BEEF or offensive skill (aka...Toomey/Cunningham or Rosario) in the middle...as good as they are...they elevate.

Thank you for a thoughtful, sensible post.
