I love JB, she's such a humble, well-spoken and positive person and a great leader for this program. the longer she stays, the better we will continue to be as a program, JMHO. Can't wait to see that UCLA matchup!

Question for the board: Who is the fifth starter, assuming beers, peyton, sahara, and chavez start?

Vann, smith, stewart, cullison, lofton, Odd thing is they are all a little different

I personally would love for Brooklyn to get the start at the 4. Or if not move Sahara at the 4 put Verhulst at the 3 then put Zya and Chavez at the 1 and 2 with Beers at the 5.

Brooklyn is can play pretty decent defense and score the ball and she is the height we need at the 4 spot, 6’3 . she is the height we have been missing for years at the 4spot in the court.

Stewart.

Vann will be the 5th starter

I do believe if healthy and able to adapt quicly maybe Loften can be a substantial boost off the bench. Hope Stewart can be also. Hoping Caya Smith gets more minutes and is productive also.

I think Vann starts at the two. Loften as the no.2 pg.

Zya in the lineup will definitely hurt our rebounding a lot. Much smaller lineup then last year for sure if Zya is in the lineup along with Chavez.

My guess would be Vann...just because she has experience and was a good off the bench player last year. But I don't know that it matters much who starts as I think Vann, Stewart and Lofton will all average playing pretty similar minutes per game....somewhere around 20 minutes. And if one of them is starting and averaging quite a few more minutes than the others...that means that person is playing at high level and will be good news.

I believe Today is the Oklahoma vs Baylor secret scrimmage. Im not sure if the scrimmage has happened yet or if its later today but I do know its today they play against Baylor.
