Comment on Big C in relation to MVS. they were a very undersized team that we took advantage of. While C had a great game I wouldn't use that as a measuring stick. You have to look at the teams that are big and physical inside as you know the Big 12 will be.

She was on the Big 12 All Freshman team last year, I think she will be just fine in the Big 12.

Moody is about the same size as Danielle Robinson of OU. Danielle did fine as a point guard in the Big 12, due in large part to her speed. Moody is probably already a better 3 point shooter and may have more natural all-around PG skills.

I don't think it is a question whether she can do it. She has def proven that. The question being asked is about right now...she has struggled offensively of late. Personally, I think she is going to be fine.

I think Nikki will do just fine in the Big 12 in time. She is wiry, and her speed will help her a lot. No doubt it will be an adjustment from high school and the non-conference schedule, but I think she will be fine. I honestly think if she works hard, listens to the coaches, and keeps working on things in the off-season, she has the potential to be one of the best, if not the best pg in ISU history, which is saying something.

I love watching these freshmen play. Brynn looks like she has the potential to develop into a very good outside shooter. I think Fallon can develop into a very strong post player (watch some Angie Welle tapes Fallon). She looks like she is an excellent re-bounder. Right now I think she just lacks some confidence. Kileah is going to be more of a project since she has not been playing all that long, but I think there is a lot of potential there too.

It is going to be fun watching these 4 develop over the next 4 years.

About Brynn: during the half-time warmups, I watched her shoot basket after basket from the left-side corner; I bet she made eight out of ten at least. And she was close to a foot beyond the line. So, I think you are right about her potential as an outside shooter.
