Potentially better. By this, I mean

Freelon was never truly a focal point of the offense. Sure, there were the occaional post ups or square ups, but we never truly looked at her as a "get her the ball and watch her score". She got so many of her points from offensive rebounds or putting in work to get the ball> We see other teams intentionally getting their interior players the ball in ways to score, i.e. Oregon, Louisville, NC State, and others. I think Latham CAN be a player that we actually view as the no. 2 or no. 3 scoring option versus such getting points "by accident". Hopefully, the same applies to Jenkins/Trent.

I was watching the ACCN and Duff just said Latham is a versatile 4.

I see it as a direct replacement of Freelon, plus **

Thank you, the directions were perfect**
CarolinaHokieFan • 05/13/26 12:13 PM ET
Trent is definitely a 5. As is Jenkins.**
King of Hokies • 05/13/26 12:24 AM ET
all their points are going to be around the basket,they're 5's**

Unless they have skills none of us have seen, that is. Like, I'm never

You never know from one year to the next,both are good players**

Trent was 13 of 36 from 3 her Senior season of HS, 36.1%
CarolinaHokieFan • 05/14/26 11:15 AM ET
Jenkins is a 4**
Ramj4450 • 05/13/26 02:00 PM ET
I think Jenkins can be a beast under the basket. She is strong like Rose
j9hokie • 05/14/26 09:58 PM ET
She doesn't appear to have any outside game, and never played the 4 last
King of Hokies • 05/13/26 02:04 PM ET
They played well together when they were on the court at the same time
VAHokie89 • 05/13/26 12:34 PM ET
Yeah, ok. There were a few mins of 3-out offense we ran early in the season
King of Hokies • 05/13/26 02:35 PM ET
Yes, but...>:)

It's not about high- low entry passes. It's about whether you can

Note that was just an example of a type of interaction
VAHokie89 • 05/14/26 05:51 AM ET
I would say Jenkins is also a 4 and a 5
IowaHokie1978 • 05/13/26 11:06 AM ET
She had zero 3PA last year. I think it's a big jump to claim "she can shoot
