Bigs

The one position lacking to get to the Final 4 and a chance to win it all is a Dominating Big. For those of you who know more than me why can’t Carolina get the big we need. Seems like we get the guards and wings but can’t get the dominant big.

I agree. Toomey was a name. Thomas was overrated here. Both still have possibility. There are few top tier post players. WBB is still developing and lacking a superior big is not all-important; but you got to have plenty deep roster with high quality all-thru. That is possible. I am anxious to see what this team brings.

I agree. Hopefully that will and can change with the additions that we have this year and with those coming in next year. Maybe we can get one from the Portal for the 2027-2028 year.

I have hope for Bofia. I think she has the physical skills and just needs to get it all together. I have not given up on Thomas but I am ready to see something.

We need better play from the center position. I'm concerned about R. Kelly as well. I saw her play last Sunday and was not impressed with her play. Yesterday's game appeared to a worse game played by her. I know coach is going to give her an opportunity early but she will have to perform better. This years team has other guards that can play. The team definitely would be better if R. Kelly plays up to her ability. The injuries and lack of being able to play may have taken a toll on her.

Exactly, very well said 6 string.

I am beginning to think Kate, Nyla B, Sophie B, Achol A, Ciera Toomey could be our best 5 player.

I think N Bofia might be a big plus going forward this season and the future.

I was thinking the same thing. She is kind of going through the same thing that Kayla McPherson went through with all the injuries. I hope she can come back from them. I think CB is doing the right thing in that she is giving her every chance to get back to form; however, at some point a tough decision might have to be made if she is not able to get back to that same level. This is why bringing in CC and GW was crucial. CB and staff learned what happen with McPherson, Toni Key, and PP.

Do not sleep on GW and Chloe C. You need to add them to the mix.
