re: Van Lith’s visit to LSU?

the big from Depaul is more like Angel than Williams. It might be hard to get a physical 6' 4" defender to match Williams. On the positive side, there is a top 10 6'5" post and a top 2 6' guard to go with a top 50 point and a top 100 wing. The key thing for me would be an experienced point and post to help bring the freshmen along.

The scoring punch a Reese-Morrow combo would have would more than make up for any defensive deficiencies.

And don’t lose sight of the big picture. While Reese and Morrow are the unquestioned starters, you want a post rotation of four. Sa’myah Smith is a rugged defender akin to LaDaziah and Del Rosario has the potential to develop into a defender like South Carolina’s Cardoso.

So no, we don’t need a LaDaziah Williams clone at the vacant post position. While she may not be the rugged defender Williams is, Aneesah Morrow is a superstar who can flat out ball and score in her sleep. She’d make this team a ton better than last season, as hard as that is to believe.

Just imagining:

Starters: Flau’jae Johnson, Mikaylah Williams, Hailey Van Lith (Backcourt) Angel Reese, Aneesah Morrow (Post)

Second team: Last’Tear Poa, Kateri Poole, Angelica Velez (Backcourt) Aalyah Del Rosario, Sa’myah Smith (Post)

Good night, that team would not only be NC favorites, there’s an almost even chance it goes undefeated.
