In reply to: Interesting references to four guards being the primary set posted by MPG
..when most the recruits could be -- knock on wood -- over 6' fall. Right now, MM has Nat Marshall (6'5") and guard Alli Campbell (6') and could have Kylee Watson (6'4" or 6'3"), guard Caitlin Clark (6') and/or wing Maddy Westbeld (6'2"). That's solid overall height. Now, Deja Kelly (5'8") could crash that 72" inch club, but that does not seem to bother the recruiters-that-be.
a third guard/wing for 2020 and that Sidney Cooks has transferred to Mississippi State. If ND wants to play four guards in the future with Brunelle/Westbeld as the fourth...
...listed as combo guard, but most articles think she'll go off guard at Oregon, with Te-Hina Paopao at the point and Sydney Parris at the wing.
Graves is expanding his recruiting base eastwards to the midwest/border states..that's the third state he's plucked a recruit from (Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky).
My gut is that Clark thinks she can start over virtually anyone, but Graves must be thinking/covering his options with all of these signings.
As I've joked, Matt McGraw should take his grill and set up shop across from the Clark's house and make dinner every night. The idea that MM is pondering a grad. transfer for PG this year underscores the importance of the push for a PG in 2020.
expected to make a decision during the time following her AAU season in July and before her high school season began. Deja Kelly continues to earn praise for her AAU play, although I have not seen a timeline for her decision. I believe that one of Watson/Westbeld is a must, along with one of the guards, if Muffet envisions four guards and mobile posts as the future for her team beyond this coming season.
