Message: [QUOTE="jonson, post: 3292323, member: 6034"] I really don't think Ionescu is a good analogy, since everyone knew that Oregon was one of her 2 (maybe 3) finalists, but had no clue what school she would finally choose. On the other hand, despite Olson's reputation and (presumably) inside information, it's difficult for me to imagine that Oregon really belongs on her list of finalists. I'm hardly an insider, but there has very little talk in Eugene about Van Lith and Oregon throughout the past year: Clark and Oregon, for sure, until she eliminated the Ducks, but not Van Lith. And with the addition of Shelley this year, Scher and PaoPao next fall, and Bigsby the year after, I'm not sure why Graves would want another guard, who, as good as she is, doesn't seem to me a substantial upgrade, if any. (I believe that Scher, for one, has a higher ceiling.) That's why I wonder if Olson meant to say Oregon State, not Oregon, and didn't catch the error. [/QUOTE]
