This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Abby is gonna start. You can use ink on that. She will be by Fighting_Artichoke

a floor leader as she will know where people should be positioned. Abby is a coach's dream. I am thinking she will play the 2 or the 3.

Vaughn (as you noted) will start at the 5. There is no one else. She better stay out of foul trouble!

I would be surprised if Destinee didn't start, as we need floor spacing and senior leadership, as our sole junior (Dani) just checked out and our only senior will be playing in Vegas and then Europe. She'll play the 2.

The 4 will be filled by Sam and Danielle, and they will be forced to help at the 5.

Nixon will probably start at the point, and if she has that 3-pt shot she flashed some her freshman year, that will really help floor spacing. I wouldn't be surprised if Anaya gets time at PG as well. Katlyn is a combo guard as well. Unless there are more incoming transfers, all eight scholarship players will get a lot of minutes. (Eight is the 5 returners, the 2 incoming freshmen, and the grad transfer.) Better pray for no injuries!

I just hope there is a regular transfer in the pipeline and that's what caused Dani to bail. I really thought she would shine this season.
