I believe Suarez will be getting a lot of minutes this season, maybe even start, provided she stays healthy.

Players who sre very good may not average more than 15 minutes Suarez may be in that category Franklin is an established player who has outplayed All-Americans more than once and she is an elite renounder and defender. Remember Coach said she "stands out" among our post players which makes me think she probably will start. Hollingshead has a higher ceiling but not the experience And of course Key is Key so I think Suarez is probably 4th on the depth chart at the 4 and 5 spots, even though she may end up playing in the WNBA And then throw in our talented guards and WOW. Think there will be several blowouts so will anybody average more than 25 minutes? Coach could even get creative with starters and reserves having players coming off the bench who she considers her top 5. Who is on the court at the end of close games will be interesting

she had a knee injury this summer. no problemo but i agree some of those that usually wouldn't see a lot of time will probably play. i think we will also see more of players like Karo , Kaiya, and kellie will use this as teaching tools for players.

Key on the men's side had 26 points in his debut tonight. Would love to see another Key shine on Sunday. And looks like a possible future NIL deal for the both of them if they both have elite seasons and play for the same university. Very excited for Sunday.

I could be wrong but I see Marta as a wing player rather than a post. While she did play some inside her first year, it was to help out. Unfortunately she was hurt and unable to elevate enough to be fully effective inside. She has always been able to shoot and has a good enough handle to effectively dribble drive. I hope she is as strong as she looks because I remember her as a physical player who was seemingly always around the ball.

I think Kellie will need to redshirt one or more players. Maybe more enticing to some now with NIL.

Thank you Rickester for the post. This will be a game to really see how different combinations play together. I don’t believe KJH will intentionally try to run Carson-Newmen off the floor, however, with the players we have it might happen anyway. As a coach I have also learned not to take any team for granted but it is also nice not to intentionally run up the score on a weaker opponent, however, sometimes it just happens. You can’t stop your players from playing their best.

So do we start the 5 players that made the watch list or does Kelly bring one or two of them off the bench to strengthen the subs coming in? Should be very interesting. You always want speed and high energy coming off the bench to up the intensity, so it's possible.........

That's what i thought. Start those 5 lol easy pick lol ... But for some reason if jordy can't start i think jojo will so that would mean a line up of powell, walker, jackson, franklin, Key.

More interesting might be the first 2-3 players off the bench.

I am going to say Walker, Puckett, and hollingshead would be the first off the bench.
