...in the article that the pickin's for bigs is pretty small on the grad transfer front. I remember a number of us were thinking (hoping) Fasoula might bid Vandy adieu, but that didn't happen.

The other things that caught my attention:
- the author referred to Sam Brunelle as a guard; and,
- MM is thinking up an offense appropriate for this year's personnel.

While I think Sam has got guard-like range on her jumper and can drive to the hoop better than given credit for, I still think of her as a small forward, to use an old-fashioned parlance. Likes to face the basket, but can do some damage in the lane and play some old-fashioned defense and rebound.

Plus, she can see the court and pass. Given her 6'2" height that will be beneficial. Now that Dani P. isn't here, just see her role as pivotal (nothing against Mik or Danielle C., but have not seen the hands and vision element yet).

Still, Anaya is another court leader and Abby knows her offenses. Look forward to see what MM comes up with ....
