She definitely was an upgrade over Lexi Bando who she replaced in the Duck starting lineup. Stats for Boley who started every game for the Final 4 Ducks vs 3 pt wizard Lexi:

...........MPG Avg FG% FT% 3Pts 3pt% Rebs Asts ATO Stls.. Blks
Boley 28.1 12.4 46% 95% 108 43%.....132...41....1.2 20....2
Bando 26.2 10.2 47% 76% 80 46%.......52....32....2.0 20.....0

I don't see how you don't think she's a starter. Compare her to Marina, ND's top 3 point shooter she hit 28 more threes and had a better % (43% vs 41%). As for fitness, I agree she doesn't have a"classic" bball body, but she sure is fit. She played 38 minutes in their final 4 game against Baylor, which was more than Marina and Bri while scoring 14 points, more than 3 of ND's starter vs Baylor that weekend. She disappeared is some games, but also has several big games scoring over 30 twice and over 20 4 more times.

I know I'll get flack for defending her but she is a good player. It would have been good for ND if ND had kept her, but she certainly got more PT playing for the Ducks. I think she will be even better next season for Oregon.
