I believe that ND will aim for two in 2022 to replace Vaughn

and Cosgrove. Betts or Gardiner would be great low post options while Patterson or Barker would be perfect as athletic forwards who could play inside or outside on offense while blocking shots and rebounding on defense.

ND might add a guard in 2022 if there is some attrition in what will become a talented and crowded backcourt.

Thanks to Dillon for noting that I had to change Wright to Vaughn in my original subject line. It does give me a chance to thank Markisha Vaughn for her all her hard work during her years at ND.


Agree with MPG on All Points Save for ..

...subbing in Vaughn for Wright. Mik V. is the post I think he meant (I think he got caught up in a Markisha Wright moment :-) )

Nat Marshall is 6'5" tall and it will be interesting to see if she develops into more of a traditional post, tends to take it outside or does a bit of both. Therefore, getting some bigs who complement her would be optimal. That said, 6'7" Betts becomes the center of the court regardless of where she is!

Patterson is one tall talented wing, for sure and Gardiner has a bit of Naz Hillmon in her: tough inside, but developing a mid-range game.


You are Wright about Vaughn! *
