I am ready to start speculating on any number of things that could happen this season. Will we make the Final Four? Who will be the most college-ready freshman? Who will be most improved? What major question marks do you have about this team that will determine their ceiling? Will Moon dunk? Will the managers log any minutes? Will Cox reject a shot into the nose-bleed seats?
Inevitably, someone will get on here and say, "we can't look past the first regular season game against Nicholls State." Duly noted. But for everyone else who wants to engage in rampant speculation and the looking-past of opponents, I invite you to the free-for-all.
I think having some reserves again will be the difference in this team over last year, effectively allowing Kalani to be as dominant a force at the end of the season as she is certain to be at the beginning. We have three players that we should be able to count on pretty consistently to put up points and make major plays on offense and defense: Kalani, Cox, and Morris. Getting to the Final Four will depend on some combination of three other players that can be relied on to regularly leave their stamp on the court in every game. I suggest those three will turn out to be Juicy, Egbo, and Richards.
