OK, maybe not in crunch time, but definitely first half and first 10 minutes of the second half. Think Jude needs to shoot more to be more effective. She does have range. Don't know much about Deines, but hearing she could be an option also.kstarksrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11465351067278768743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-25984920390263387112012-08-27T18:22:57.045-04:002012-08-27T18:22:57.045-04:00As much as I like both Jude and Shelby, neither ha...As much as I like both Jude and Shelby, neither has shown me that she is a Big East-quality PG.

Here are the facts: 1. There is a huge drop off from S Schimmel to either J. Schimmel or Harper. 2. In close games, Shoni plays 40 minutes. <br />Here's the problem: Last season, even in close games, Walz put Shoni at the 2 for some of time, and during those periods, the team suffered dramatically with Jude or Harper at the point (e.g., v. Maryland). The solution - again, I'm only talking about close games - is to keep Shoni at point (which doesn't mean she can't run off of screens without the ball in the half court offense) and substitute players at other positions, where the back-ups are all better than either Jude or Harper.<br />--PDX PhilAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-75270721359136712662012-08-27T14:51:49.772-04:002012-08-27T14:51:49.772-04:00No surprise really on Epps.
