19-20 Starting 5

Sorry but Robertson is so unathletic. She can't guard anyone on this board and doesn't make many turnovers because when she touches the ball, she shoots.

Would probably be a perfect 6th man, but then someone will have to be a big time scorer in the starting line up, and since Williams has lost her Perimeter skills, gabby might have to help early or Taylor should remain a starter...

Agreed! I'm hoping that the freshman that come in this year are such good overall as players that it does bump Robertson to the sixth-man position. This would be a good thing.

Watching a lot of the NCAA tournament and just makes me sad. We have a Hall of Fame coach and we didn't field a team this year. Even watching UCLA vs Tennessee, two unranked teams mind you, and they would have both probably smoked our team. That's how bad our fundamentals were this year. it's hard for me to believe that the players came into the program with such bad fundamentals, I think that falls on the coaches and are a result of pure laziness and lack of discipline. I think this is already been established though. God I hope I'm not repeating this next season at this time!

I know both of their teams didn't get very far but at least Mulkey scored 18 points in her first round game and Dungee scored 37 and the razorbacks win in the wnit the other night. She would have been an amazing asset to our team IMO. I hope Gregory really comes through and helps Ana out this coming season. I put her in my starting lineup over robertson right now, along with Scott over Simpson.

Been reading up on everyone still on roster and those coming in, transfers and juco. I am not certain at this point if Sherri signs another player, but I'd say if by June 15 we don't have someone else -- we aren't getting anyone else.

After significant deliberation...

I'm still sticking to my original 5

5-Bloom
4-Williams
3-Scott
2-Llanusa
1-Murcer

Robertson off bench1st for Scott or Williams
Gregory off bench 2nd for Scott
Simpson off bench for Bloom unless we sign a new big

Unless our players are tremendous athletes, like a Jackie Joyner playing for UCLA, how can OU compete with the tallest players being 6'1" or 6'2"?
Does Coales think OU is still playing 3 on each side of the court basketball?
She needs to retire to some private religious high school where they might value character over ability to play hoops. Colton can be the towel boy.
Is her salary really only 300K less than Sampson at Houston? What a joke.

Apparently juco and graduate players are out of contention if Cherri's remarks can be understood. Strange language for someone so ordinarily articulate.

+1 Agreed!

From the vidoe I saw of Scott she is Maddi but a tad bigger. Not a 3 but another undersized 4. I seriously doubt that the all-time freshman 3 point shooter will go to the bench for an untested freshman. She has a pretty good all-around game and will probably work harder in the off season to improve than anyone else on the team.

 

[Oliver Hardy]

Robertson is a wonderful offensive player, however she is a bit slow, rarely drives the lane to shoot layups and isn't very good on defense.

I expect significant improvement from her by next season, however, because she is at her dream school and I think she is the kind of motivated, hard working kid we have all been talking about getting.

It will be tough to move her out of the starting 5 for sure. If Gregory does end up starting, I think it will only be by conference time and is totally dependent upon whether or not she can out work and produce better than Taylor R.

Maddie Manning or Madi Williams?
