Message: [QUOTE="jabstep, post: 3646064, member: 10340"] Our incoming class is far superior to the Coombs, Gordon and AEH. At guard, you had Coombs who was a great defensive player who hustled and played with tenacity. Her offense left a lot to be desired. The two incoming guards Paige and Nika have far superior offensive skills. Both freshmen have great court vision and make passes that get easy baskets for their teammates. I remember Coombs driving to the hoop to try and score and getting doubled and losing the ball alot. Coombs had no outside shot. Paige is probably our best 3 point shooter right now and Nika needs some work on her three's but on her highlights, she hit some and has a pull up jumper around the foul line. Over time I think you will see both Paige and Nika in the backcourt together. Gordon has turned into a nice lower D1 player but as a freshmen she was out of shape and really lost on the court. We have Edwards who plays on the Canadian National team and holds her own. She understands help defense and offensive sets such as pick and roll. She is a good rebounder and she also understands spacing on offense. She is way past Gordon. Mir on her athletic ability alone is way past Gordon. We will find out how Geno uses her soon I hope. Espinoza-Hunter was a 1 dimensional player. She shot the 3 ball and not much else. She went to Mississippi State and had trouble finding minutes. That leaves us with Gabriel who has size and strength and runs the court well. With UConn's coaching staff she could the diamond in the ruff. [/QUOTE]
