Roster now and in the future

Was Ritchie a walk-on or scholarship player? I didn't think she was scholarship for the BB team.

We lose two this year and gain Odimgbe. That leaves us one ship, if Ritchie wasn't on scholarship, and two in 2016 after Kornet and Williams are gone.

Have I got all that right? So, we can't pick up more than Dungee and Mulkey in 2016 unless someone quits, right?

That also means no Paige and no Ramirez, as far as I can tell.

We lost one scholarship senior in Sharane and added Odimgbe. Ritchie was a walk-on. Next year (at this time) OU will have 14 on scholarship, with 1 scholarship unused. Next year OU has 2 scholarship seniors, and 2 verbal commitments from next year's high school senior class.

Technically OU has one available scholarship for this year, and if both commits sign LOI's with OU in November, OU will have another available scholarship for 2015-16.

Sherri hasn't ever had 15 players on scholarship.
 
We need to drop Dungee, will never play meaningful minutes at OU
 
I have seen Dungee four times, and I think she has potential at this level. Do I detect a grudge?
 
From what I've seen, Chelsea will need to:

1. Play hard every play on both ends of the court and not take plays off;

2. Improve her ability to penetrate.

She hasn't shot very well BTA in the games I've watched but possibly that was a fluke as every player goes through periods of poor shooting.
 
I took the time to add up Chelsea's stats at one point about ten to twelve games after she had joined Sapulpa. She was leading the team in scoring, FG%, 3PT%, FT%, and, was either number one or two in rebounds and assists at the time---in the games in which she had played. I did notice that there was a ball hog who was scoring a lot with a low percentage. Dungee was by far the most effective player on their team at the time I added up the stats.

Incidentally, in the AAU game that I saw, she had no difficulty penetrating, scoring probably six of the first ten points her team scored, all on the result of drives (with two free throws). Since she was so effective, and the opposition guards could not steal the ball from her, she sat nearly all of the game after that while some guards who had a big reputation missed shot after shot and couldn't keep the ball from the Chicago guards if the ball had had a handle.

I don't have a problem with Chelsea's offense at all. She will need to improve her defense though. When I have seen her, she at times can be a little lazy on the defensive side of the ball. She has the makings of a very solid player, but needs to work on playing every possession. Playing in 6A will help her improve on her weaker parts of her game.
 
I saw her play five times for Sapulpa and she is lazy and doesn't even try on defense and a poor rebounder. Stats don't always tell the story. She is the most over-rated player I have seen in Oklahoma in a long time. Wilson from Muskogee ate her lunch when they played. Her body language is very poor.

Really low post...
 
That is the kind of trash that we have seen too much. I have also seen Wilson, and Holmes. Dungee performed better than either of them did when I saw them.
 
Why would anyone express (publicly) such low opinions of a young lady who's still in high school? I don't get it.
 
How is the Mulkey girl doing in AAU, traveling teams this summer. Isn't she 6'9"? Can she be a dominate force in the middle by the time she gets to OU?
 
I watched a few of the Sapulpa games after she transferred there. Seemed to be a lot going on there. The other players seemed to ignore her and inferior players were taking all of the shots. Think there was a bit of jealousy.

She seemed to be a little subdued and I suspect was not having a good time. In one game they had a big lead and for what ever reason the coach took her out of the game and the lead started evaporating big time. So she must have had some kind of defensive presence.

It was really hard to evaluate her.

She can if she gets stronger and becomes more aggressive.
 
When did we lose Odimgbe? I was just checking the current roster, and she's not there.

Only 13 players listed...

She's here. She just isn't listed on the roster. We've been speculating that maybe she can't be until school starts or they report for basketball or something.

Thanks for the reply, that certainly makes sense. Those late signings have been related to various odd scenarios, if my memory serves me correctly.
