ROFL. So now your switching to Freelon and Baker?

They haven't played that many bigs. Amanze from UVA has 7 points in 13 minutes. Foul trouble. Kyle from Miami avgs 15 a game. Drops 23 on us. The only other big they have played is Pania Davis from FSU. You didnt see Agara against Cal? She had 6 points in 27 minutes with 3 rebounds. You know why? Because there was a 6'5" Sakima Walker under there with her. Name me the other bigs she has actually went up against? Why would you use her as an example if your going to use the excuse shes a freshman? The argument? You listed the players you said were dominant bigs in the ACC. I just proved the ones you listed are not dominant against true bigs. Carys Baker is a heck of a player for a stretch four. Which is what she plays. She may even play at the next level. But dont call her a big. Just because they play her out of position on defense to take foul issues away from Freelon dont mistake her for that.

Everyone wants one, but a dominant big would be so helpful right now.**
KiloZulu • 02/03/26 08:23 PM ET
A "quality" inside/big would be nice. Not too many dominant.**
VAHokie89 • 02/04/26 03:58 PM ET
We all focus on"big", athleticism is first and foremost in my book
1977hokie • 02/03/26 09:29 PM ET
We had two bigs that were not athletic,we know how that worked out**
mrknowitall • 02/04/26 05:04 PM ET
Sigh.. people who call for bigs don't want bums as bigs
VAHokie89 • 02/04/26 06:42 PM ET
We need size. We have athleticism
VAHokie89 • 02/04/26 09:44 AM ET
Baker doesn’t “get beat on any drive”
hokiepro • 02/04/26 11:38 PM ET
Yes, she does. She runs alongside eith her hands up
VAHokie89 • 02/05/26 07:41 AM ET
Getting beat to me means “scored on”
hokiepro • 02/05/26 09:50 AM ET
No it does not. Played can ge beaten but the offensive player blows
VAHokie89 • 02/05/26 02:53 PM ET
We’re top 12 in FG eff defense & she plays 30+ mpg
hokiepro • 02/05/26 03:43 PM ET
As I said, taller yes, but don’t sacrifice athleticism, the quality Teams
1977hokie • 02/04/26 10:38 AM ET
Can you name how many dominant Bigs there are in Womens BB or even the ACC?**
UTPr0sim • 02/03/26 08:25 PM ET
Toby Fornier, Khamil Pierce, Laura Ziegler, Agara
VAHokie89 • 02/04/26 09:52 AM ET
UCLA has one, UCONN, Texas & Oklahoma do
hokiepro • 02/03/26 08:47 PM ET
Saying there are 6 or so quality bigs will be among 64 tourney teams?**
Va AandM • 02/04/26 06:01 AM ET
There is a difference between "quality" and "dominant"
VAHokie89 • 02/04/26 09:53 AM ET
This discussion make Luz and Strachey sound like black swan events **
Va AandM • 02/04/26 01:26 PM ET
No, just naming a few
hokiepro • 02/04/26 08:53 AM ET
And in the ACC? **
UTPr0sim • 02/03/26 08:54 PM ET

VAHokie89 • 02/04/26 09:53 AM ET

VAHokie89 • 02/04/26 03:57 PM ET

thunar • 02/05/26 10:39 AM ET
Not really, If that was the case, baker and freelon would be

ROFL. So now your switching to Freelon and Baker? ◄
thunar • 02/05/26 12:16 PM ET
I did not call Baker a big. now you are just arguing for argument's sake
VAHokie89 • 02/05/26 02:45 PM ET
ROFL. I said average true bigs.
thunar • 02/13/26 03:39 PM ET
Yawn. I listted posts/forwards they played against
VAHokie89 • 02/13/26 04:18 PM ET
i said literally an average true big.
thunar • 02/15/26 10:30 AM ET
Kitley isn't 6ft 2in, she's 6ft.6in.**
dubnic2roxy1 • 02/04/26 07:36 PM ET
That was a typo. I knew it was 6'6" but I guess had 6'6" on the brain. Thx**
VAHokie89 • 02/04/26 07:40 PM ET
Fournier**
Lefthand2II • 02/03/26 09:55 PM ET
Indeed, Coach Duffy and her staff are doing a great job!**
