omg,this young lady can flatout play! its, "ova"!! with yarborough's addition (and sb substraction), we've gotta be the projected "top dawg" at this point during the preseason. omg, "major" pickup!! in the words of a&t-roy, "let's go!"... oops! thought she was someone else, but still a good pickup... So did I until I saw her numbers 🤔 But we will see 👀. I was hoping for a Troy University type point guard that could give Dorsey some relief. But coach Rob knows what he needs better than I. Hopefully we'll pick up a quick guard. |

Jakieya Thompson 5'7 G Tamia Darden 5'9 G Raigan Lawrence 5'8 G Nahndi Smith 5'6 G 9 guards,6 forwards and 3 centers It's been a busy off season already. I wonder what the up coming season will bring.A lot of potential talent.
More changes to come I am sure. |

I like that we are picking up players that played for opponents, hopefully she will get us some Bracone like moments and production. |

We really didn't have much guard production to back up Jordan Dorsey this year... SKD was unavailable most of the season.. Smith played some .. We need a really good transfer to spell Dorsey....similar to the Stony Brook guard who backed up Gonzalez |

They have the size. The whole team needs to improve their shooting along with their ball handling. Where I think we will be much improved is the wing and post positions with the additions of Howard,Jessup,James and Griffin. |

I "think" she's gonna be a better option than Mia Hardin was in the post. Also, if their heights are right, we lost 2 6-footers and gained a 6'1 & 6'3. She is, for sure. Mia was a project. It was a matter of her hopefully developing to be able to get to CAA level in a season. Delaney is Stony Brook-level talent, only reason she didn't get much burn is because she was young. I don't think Mia was a project from a talent perspective. She just wasn't in the proper condition to play at this level. If she had been 20 - 30 pounds lighter she likely would have received a lot more playing time. |

Had she been a freshman instead of a junior, she may have still been on the roster. |

Can she make a contested layup? Or an UNCONTESTED layup under our basket? |

Or an UNCONTESTED layup under our basket? nobody misses "uncontested" layups under the basket except on extremely rare occasions. the shots we miss under the basket are "contested", we often get "sped up" by the defense which makes what looks like an easy layup a much more difficult shot. to fix that we either have to get in the weight room to get stronger and/or use a simple head fake to create an easier shot... |

I think he was talking about Mia Hardin concerning missing uncontested layups. |
