Re-reading that I think you are correct.
Problem is Reese wants to play wing. I'm sure we were already after her, but I don't see it. If we can't get Edwards or Blackwell, we must temper expectations for sure.Dcheetah said:
Those would be 3 fantastic pickups! Still need a big though although if none found I would try my best to get Angel Reese here.

Aijha and Sonya commented on Dre'Una's post with the eyes emoji. Could we see two more???
Oh, this is fantastic news! If we can get Blackwell, too -- look out Big 12 and NCAA!GelaBear said:

Sources are saying that Aijah Blackwell has decided to transfer to Baylor. WER was the first to report her final 3 a few weeks ago. https://t.co/l75wMuyHR9 @WorldExposureTP pic.twitter.com/0nWT2bDZwZ
I may be a little unfamiliar with the colloquial use of post, but she still is going to play close to basket wherever she ends up. I guess she could face up and attack from the perimeter more? The lone option to play the 3 seems like SC with one of Staley's zero-space lineups. But that seems like underutilizing talent to me.Wbbfan29 said:

Maryland [much like Oregon & Oregon State] is a well known "tell recruits whatever they want to hear about usage on O, we will simply play them however we want after they arrive" BSer. Schools that conveyor-belt recruits in & out tend to have the same issues: O usage, pace of play, distribution of shots, etc. "We plan to open up the offense this year" is the standard starting point of the BS.12au said:I may be a little unfamiliar with the colloquial use of post, but she still is going to play close to basket wherever she ends up.

I get the tweet though--since she's a great big her perimeter skills aren't discussed as much. I assume she's leaving Maryland because the team hasn't been good enough.
