According to the article, there is no better class in the nation. Also, Gray is the 2nd highest ranked recruit in program history, behind only Sabrina Ionescu. Wow! Basham is 6'7." Coach Graves is certainly not lacking height. We can measure up against any program in the country in that area.

While Graves is collecting skyscrapers, he is also picking up some players who would excel in an open floor pressing game. Isai is strong, athletic and has an every level offensive game. She may not have the highest ceiling because of her tweener height but I'm betting a nickel on her to be the first of this class to find a regular role.

Excited to see what this class can do.
It feels like the #1 class from last year was just so underwhelming and quite possibly over-ranked.
Hoping not the same for this group.

Possibly overrated agreed. The only bright spot of that class that I see is the emergence of Parrish and not just her talent. She's beginning to show the traits of being a leader, which is sadly missed on this team. If she can't fulfill that role, then we'll have to wait til next year for that highly-ranked class to produce someone who will.
Why is it so hard to find a tough, hard-nosed drill sergeant type? Is it a rarity nowadays?

“Feelings” trump discipline these days.

Stumbled across this Jennah Isai highlight. First highlights I had seen of her was as a Freshman and she looked like a quick little point guard. She has grown into a small forward. With all that added size she has lost some quickness, but she is still a real pest on defense with anticipation and quick hands. She has an all phase offensive game. Enjoy.

Really hoping this group is legit
Team has been so inconsistent the past two years
