Boom!!!!
PG: Kate, Kelly
SG: Brooks, Transfer, Zubich
SF: Burrow, Hull
PF: Akot, TQ, Astakhova
C: Toomey, Thomas, Bonfia
If we could add Williams, that would be massive, but either way we need one more guard and I think we’d be set.
Add Williams and I think we are a top 10 team and best in the ACC.

Finally we get to play WITH an Aussie instead of against. I’m stoked!
Nice pull. We got a shooter that brings height. I think we way up on gain/loss
Looks like she may be better with the dribble than LG and maybe quicker. Is that an accurate read?
Don't think shes quicker shes bigger. I made multiple post about Lanie i been telling everybody shes too small to be a SG. In women's basketball your seeing bigger athletic wing players now and burrows is an example. Its hard to stop a big wing player going down hill
No knock on LG, but now with Burroughs height and size, CB can use that by having her post smaller guards in the post now. Something we could not do with LG. I think we all remember how Wes did that to us at NC State when he had S. Rivers and she posted RK and DK down in the blocks. They were just to small to be able to defend that. Teams did RJ the same way on the men's side. They got mismatches were he had to try to guard taller and longer guards in the paint. There is nothing a small guard can do against that. That is a big plus when we play teams that have guards that are 5'9" and below.
Yeah, I agree if we can add Williams or Johnson to help at the PG or off guard positions. Welcome to the family Sophia and Akot. Go Heels!
Think of a a bigger, more lengthy Lanie Grant. A bettter defender and causes more havoc defensively. Still a good shooter, but probably not to the degree of LG. Will probably be a much better finisher and rebounder.
gosh, imagining the length of length and havoc defensively of Kate, Burrows, Brooks, Akot, and Toomey is really exciting. Then you throw in a much improved defender in Taissa, Hull, Reniya, Blanca, Bofia, etc! Guys, this could be the best defensive teams in the Banghart era… and we’ve had a ton of Top 15 defenses

Did you not watch the tape Carolina151. Her numbers are almost or might be better than LG. She is a better finisher and rebounder than Grant. That was obvious when watching the film. She is taller and has length. Do you know anything about players from Australia. They can flat out shoot the ball. Do you remember G. Amore when she was at VT? She gave us all kinds of problems. If you watch the women's bb in the Olympics, the Australians women can shoot it. They are known to be great shooter. Do you remember GT? Nell always brought in foreign players. She always had one from Australia that could just flat out shoot the ball. Cal has some the year before last.
Can you not read the numbers and tell that a 30% shooter is not as good at a 41%?
Jada Williams (scheduled to visit tomorrow) or Kymorah Johnson (more of a long shot as of this moment)
Jada Williams is interesting
was a high school phenom. Had alot of big time offers. But she has bounced around alot in college
She can be streaky but she's very talented and was really good at iowa

Outstanding shooter. Not as skilled or athletic on ball as the guards we lost but a great player and perfect complement to Harpring and A2. Need another secondary ball handler and a big and this team is cooking.
That is a good point; however, she can rebound on both ends of the floor and she can post in the paint as a big guard which are things the guards we lost could not do well. My point is all three players have strengths and weakness. That will pay dividends when we play against small guards, CB can run set plays in the post for Burrows on the offensive end.
