She's the same size my brother was coming out of HS, when he (Like a bonehead) stalled Oregon to long when they offered, and ended up playing someplace else, by default.

{Of course, back then, Oregon was still referred to as the Webfoots, and the coach was Steve Belko.}

Well turns out we are her dream school.

Also from practices its looks like 6'7" Sedona Price is playing smooth and strong in the high/low post game. Will be a great player for her to learn from as Price has a pretty well-rounded game.

This years team is already tall and young. 5 players that will see the floor are 6'4" - 6'7". 3 of those players Watson, Sabally and Prince are solidly built. They are listing Sabally at 6'5". Though Watson is listed at 6'4" she looks as tall as Sabally and taller than the 6'4" Dugalic.

Oregon should be able to hold their own in rebounding against even OSU and Stanford's stable of big girls.

Stanford, OSU and Oregon seem to be in an arms race for height.

No idea.

Noah Vonleh's sister (Aaronette?) is a Top 100 recruit out of Oregon in 2022 I want to say.

She's an Arizona commit. Were you highlighting her as another Oregon option?

What? No one remembers the great Kofi Kyei? I must be the oldest person on this board.

Played for Don Monson. 7 feet tall. Not very skilled.
