Watkins CAN be VERY strong and a leaper while at the same time NOT being the same impact on Defense as Cardoso. -- There is no way she has the same Defensive impact that Cardoso brought vs the top tier teams. Less-than-top-tier? --- -> sure. - the SC Defense and her can devastate them. Just want to say I am not slamming your team. Yury team is a beast and I can't see them to start year being anything but #1 to start. I value experience and in the backcourt you have a 5th year senior in Paopao and age=wise a 4th year player in Raven - as a result your sop home pg has terrific leadership to assist her - with Bree Hall as an experienced Wing-- just terrific. . And your frontcourt is loaded with experience and talent too. And IMO the freshman Edwards is also going to be a huge boost (just like Sarah Strong will be for UCONN). I can’t see anyone having any valid reason to not rank SC preseason #1. But losing Cardoso is a hit. I’d be very surprised if Tac had much of an impact her frosh year vs the top 5 elite teams. Your frontcourt strength of Watkins, Feagin, Kitts and Edwards is loaded with 3 experienced players and one super-talented freshman. That is very impressive. This is where you have the big “paper” advantage over UCONN – again. Ugghhhhhhhh grrrrrrrrrrr! Because of your balance also including experience – you are going to have an advantage night-in-and-night-out. Though ofc your team is in no way unbeatable. [/QUOTE]
