LSU won without a center

You do not need a true post if you have an Angel Reese.If you have an athletic player who is between 6-3-6-5 who knows how to block out, refuses to give an inch or up, and is tough as nails, you will be good against just about any post player. You also have to attack the boards with several players.

Yeah too many people get caught up on size when it’s about desire.

Anriel Howard was always my example there. She was 5’11” but just had an insane motor and pursued the basketball with a passion.

Defend other bigs well because she often prevented them from catching with quick defensive footwork. She would get the steal or deflection before they ever got a chance to catch and make a move.

Is there a reason you can’t handle factual discourse over an abject failure of a coach?

Some of yall really need to learn to separate her LVFL status from her head coaching tenure. I love Kellie as a LVFL. Her coaching tenure became unbearable. No recruits, no big wins, all talk, no action.

It’s unfortunate she was put in a situation at her Alma mater she just wasn’t equipped for. It’s natural for people to make immediate comparisons given our recruiting last year vs 1 year later with a different head coach and a different staff.

Kellie’s playing days don’t insulate her from scrutiny as a coach in my opinion. Sorry not sorry.

That said, yes it’s a dead horse at this point, but there are going to be a lot of notable positives this year compared to the last few and it’s natural to draw comparison.

Not surprisingly, you missed the point. The thread isn’t about “a factual discourse over an abject failure of a coach”. It’s about the commitment of a great player. Let me try to simplify my point. If you want to criticize prior coaches, do it in a separate thread rather than backhandedly doing it in a thread about a great new recruit.

Criticize to your hearts content but do it in a thread for that topic. Be brave about it rather than try to to sneak it in where it isn’t warranted.
