Fulwiley would start at PG. There is no other "guard spot" for her to be a starter.

everyone shitting on Gilbert but no one seems to understand that you can improve. This was her first year in a new system
I WHOLEHEARTEDLY agree. Back in January, there were people on this board suggesting that Gilbert should be a starter over Williams. Now all of a sudden people want her to transfer. Yes, she took shots at inopportune times, but she can learn when and where to get her shots as she continues in the program. If she doesn't, Kim will reduce her minutes.

I wouldn't be surprised. Raven Johnson is an EXCELLENT defender and distributor of the ball at the point. But she's a terrible jump shooter. But her defense and decision making is what keeps her in the starting lineup over Fulwiley. I can also understand Fulwiley being upset about the addition of Latson. Even if she started, Latson would get huge minutes at her expense.

Correct that is what I read, it was combo Raven starting and bringing in Latson. That is why she is leaving. She waited patiently for 2 years for her turn and then this happened. Staley would have continued to sit her on the bench as 6th player.

Well, Del Rosario will have the same issues IF, the coaching there can't turn her around. I don't think she's too "slow-footed" to play in this league. If Oldacre at UT can play in the SEC, Del Rosario can. She just wasn't a good fit for us, but that doesn't mean another coaching staff can't get her to her full potential. I think a change of scenery will do her some good. I wish nothing but the best for her.

Yeah, I've already read multiple commenters saying Fulwiley can't play PG and LSU would be starting 3 SG's and it'd be another HVL situation.
Iirc, Fulwiley was the 2nd or 3rd ranked all-american PG in the Class of 2023, first of all. Secondly, I'm hard-pressed to name any guard in all of wbb with a better handle than Fulwiley. (Maybe Hidalgo?) Fulwiley's dribbling in & out of traffic are Kyrie-esque. Thirdly, her passing skills are at times Rondo-esque.
Now, her electric speed has gotten her too deep in the paint & caused some reckless TO's with late errant passes, but there's no question she can play PG.
I'm not so sure about that.
Yes, she definitely has the physical tools to play the position. However, does she have the MINDSET to do it? She literally has two first team all SEC players who average almost 20 ppg in the starting lineup. Can she defer to them and learn to be a playmaker / distributor, who can also score when needed? THAT, is the question.
However, I seriously doubt she'll end up at LSU. :rolleyes:
The most important transfer we can get right now is SERAH WILLIAMS, period!

i only got to watch a few minutes but Aaliyah Chavez looked like a ball hog. I watched her team have about 10 possessions and it seemed like she took 7 shots.
She does have that reputation and it is rumored that this is the reason that three of our current recruits didn't want to play with her. If we'd gotten her, at least three of them were probably not coming to LSU.

Wow, some of you really went off on a tangent. The bottom line, did you actually listen to the first ten minutes where she's talking about Redus and the on campus visit with Serah Williams, and then the follow up with Mikaylah? Jesus!

I'm sure Van Lith wasn't excited. The reason she didn't do well at LSU was because Mulkey made her dump the ball down to Reese at every opportunity. How many shots she gets to take will be a big deal and of course how many she makes.
Tell me you don't watch LSU basketball, without telling me you don't watch LSU basketball. :lol: :lol:
Kim Mulkey Pulling Out All the Stops for Serah Williams!

We definitely need Williams to complete this frontcourt. For those of you who hadn't seen or heard of her visit yesterday and today, here's a video I posted in another thread describing what's going on.....................

Not sure if you watch this youtube show, but she does a very good job of discussing women's basketball. Watch the first ten minutes of the video. She does a great job of describing Serah Williams visit with LSU yesterday. Looks like we're putting on the full court press!!!

re: Amiya Joyner announces commitment to LSU
Posted by lsualum96 on 4/17/25 at 4:13 pm
I think Richard has shown more than enough that she’s capable, in the limited minutes she played. We can’t go into the portal EVERY YEAR and never actually develop players. Just because someone doesn’t play heavy minutes as a freshman, especially at that position, doesn’t mean they’re not ready to be the starter their 2nd year.
In Richard you have the potential to have a three year starter at the position. Additionally, the other four starters will be veterans. She may take some lumps early next season, but by conference play I believe she can be a solid starter AND be a consistent scoring threat from that position………something we haven’t had there since Pointer and Morris were our point guards.
I have a feeling this is what we’re going to see, because the coaching staff and players are so high on her.

Notre Dame clearly had no idea how to us Koval!

Posted by lsualum96 on 4/16/25 at 12:18 pm
We do NOT need a starting point guard. Richard can fill that role.
re: LSU Women Basketball Recruiting Thread
Posted by lsualum96 on 4/15/25 at 7:01 pm
It'll be nice if we can get Williams as the starting power forward with Koval at center. However, if we have Joyner at power forward instead, we'll still be good. But we STILL need to find another post player to come off the bench.

re: Wolfenbarger set to return for senior season at LSU
Posted by lsualum96 on 4/11/25 at 2:28 pm
This is disappointing. But at the same time, I'm encouraged that this staff has 2-3 post players coming in through the portal. No way do I feel they're dropping the ball here. I think the kids know what's coming before we do, and this looks bad, but when the announcements are made it will make sense.

The Reese haters never cease to amaze me
Morrow was great but Reese won us a championship
PERIOD. End of discussion
You don’t have to agree with Angel Reese’s lifestyle or personality but the hate for her is ridiculous when she brought us a title
In her junior year, Reese averaged 23 ppg and 15 rebs.
In her junior year, Morrow averaged 16 ppg and 10 rebs
In her senior year, Reese averaged 19 ppg and 13 rebs
In her senior year, Morrow averaged 18 ppg and 13.5 rebs.
Not to mention Reese was the NCAA tournament MOP her junior year, and SEC POY her senior year.
They're both great players but, Reese WAS better.
