    WBB: 2016-2017 season

    What the heck, I thought we should give the ladies some love.

    Here are some introductory videos on the new girls:

    Leaonna Odom: http://www.goduke.com/ViewArticle.db...DB_OEM_ID=4200
    Emily Schubert: http://www.goduke.com/ViewArticle.db...DB_OEM_ID=4200
    Sofia Roma: http://www.goduke.com/ViewArticle.db...DB_OEM_ID=4200

    Here's a good note...Kendall Cooper is on the roster. Welcome back.

    Please, can we have good health this year? I will not profess to be an expert on women's college basketball, but I would think a backcourt of Lexie Brown and Becca Greenwell is among the best in the nation. Really looking forward to how they mesh. Add all these second year players who we could hope to see great strides from (they all showed flashes last year)...Kyra Lambert, Haley Gorecki, Crystal Primm, and Faith Suggs...and there is flexibility and possibilities for 3-guard lineups.

    The frontcourt also has talent and experience, with Oderah Chidom, Kendall Cooper, Lynee Belton, and Erin Mathias. I expect Leaonna Odom to be a bit of a swing player, and Emily Schubert is probably a prospect this year. Sofia Roma will sit out a redshirt year.

    Just piggy backing on what you've said I agree with it all. Also, if we can remain healty, this team could be really good and A LOT better than last year. I think Kendall Cooper has a lot of potential, but for whatever reason (maybe McCallie in her ear) she's chosen to be really passive. Maybe this year she will finally unleash what I know she has.

    It will be interesting to see if we get in any preseason polls. It would not surprise me if we are left out; even if we do make it, these ladies (and Coach P) will have a lot to prove. Actually, Coach P has much more to prove than her team does, especially to fans like us.
    Q "Why do you like Duke, you didn't even go there." A "Because my art school didn't have a basketball team."
