SC has recruited at such a high level that having a smaller class this year wouldn’t shock me
Prob Divine Bourrage?
Harmon is likely to stay another year since she was granted another RS year. Miles could stay or leave (guessing she’ll leave though, this is year 5 in South Bend).
I've watched a few draft analyses and I think Raven would be the #2 PG taken in this draft behind Bueckers. Experts think Harmon and Amoore will have trouble getting drafted because of their size and it is pretty much 50/50 odds between Raven and Miles for the #2/3 with most choosing Raven because she has a better three point shot.
If she doesn't fall for the LSU dog and pony show then probably.
Her finalist list is odd but she definitely is very interactive with both LSU and SCs programs. Have to assume one of them will get her
Agree on Raven over Harmon/Amoore due to physicality but I’d easily take Miles over Johnson. Much better offensive player overall.
I think she's probably a 1st rounder. But sticking in the league at 5'8" is a tall order. Also, I have a feeling Miles will go before her if they're in the same year. A couple inches taller with slightly better finishing skills at the rim.
I agree. Maybe it's just me, but I don't think Georgia Amoore is good enough to stick in the WNBA (too small, can't really defend, and is inefficient). She shouldn't be considered a first round pick, IMO. Raven is a much, much, much, much better prospect than she is. Harmon could become a Jordin Canada type, but that remains to be seen (some will recall that Jordin was on her way out of the WNBA until she improved her shot).
Incredible season for her
Doesn't Miles have the COVID exception in addition to her redshirt year? She enrolled early instead of with her 2021 class.
I think she has a medical redshirt year only for missing last season. She used that covid year in the 2020-21 season when she arrived on campus for the second semester.
Haven't heard that interpretation before. Wonder how many early enrollees this would affect if that's the case?
Their situation is different because the COVID year exception wasn't available when they did. What isn't clear is whether Miles has a COVID year in addition to her redshirt year when she enrolled early.
All of them? If early enrollees play in the second semester they use up that entire year of eligibility. That's why Miles and Von Oelhoffen arrived a semester early. Since that covid year was a free year to anyone starting in the 2020-2021 season.
The question about the COVID year was in response to a poster who is under the assumption that Miles will enter the draft this year as they're counting it as Year 5. It sounds like we're in agreement while having different interpretations as to when the COVID year comes into effect.
I actually think Miles’ defense is pretty good. Raven’s is better, but Dawn is a defensive coach and South Carolina has handily had the best defense in the nation the last three years. But I think I’d still consider Miles a plus defender at the guard spot.
