I've never paid attention to the lady vols height until now. Is that a concern or is that normal for women's college basketball

84.8/14=6.0 feet. That is a pretty good average for a female basketball team.

I was thinking a center would be 6'5 or so but no center is listed

Kim plays a 5 out system, where you don't play a true post player.

I think the Lady Vols will have an outstanding year. I am eager to see them in action, especially all of the new players. It will be entertaining to read the over the top extrapolations derived from the slaughter of this annual sacrificial lamb.

All out chaos! Full court press, create turnovers, fast break and shoot 3’s. LV win by 6-777777. 104-37!

How do they have 18 players ? Almost all guards and little bitty in size.

and really old as well...

hang on to your man

 

[Jax_Vol]

They look somewhat athletic for a bunch of old cougar women. Terrible taste in shoes.

Umm… ENOUGH! Columbus State is my hometown and where I’m alum… grow tf up lol I’m happy as a GEORGIA PEACH! You raggedy lovers of moms! (Read my sarcasm here)

I do hope my LV’s stomp a mud hole into them BUT I’m really excited for these ladies to experience a game on The Summitt. They’re rebuilding but typically aren’t a “bad” D2 team.

Yep. I’m assuming it looks alot like the early season game last year where we broke the three point records.

Something I didn't realize about that NCCU game until lately: we hit 30 threes that day without Spear.

Spencer going 9-13 certainly helped, though.

 

[Volfan2012]

Not in agreement with this totally, but starting five looks accurate.

Wynn won’t see the floor this year at all. It will be very similar to Wells last year.

With eighteen 5' 6" girls on the Columbus State roster, I'm going to predict 5-42 on 3-point attempts, 2-14 on 2-point, and 5-9 on free throws.

Is Wynn the only girl remaining from Coach Harper?

Boyd and Cooper were both recruited by Harper and staff.

Cooper and Boyd were both Harper recruits. They were here while Harper was coaching but were not playing (redshirt). Everyone else is CKC. Nothing against Wynn but she not only missed the entire rim on about half jump shots but also missed the entire backboard on several different occasions. She makes cooper look like a 3 pt shooter. She seems like a great girl, but I am highly confident she won’t help us this year.

Wonderful that Ruby and Talaysia are being recognized by preseason award watchlists. Just a few more days!
