Update! I listed the teams in order. HOWEVER, some teams have the same odds. Ohio State, USC, Minnesota, and Michigan State are all +15,000. So here is a second ranking. Probably both rankings are useful. (Example, Ohio State is higher than Michigan State despite same odds). 1. UConn 2...

I used Addi Mack as an example for likelihood to succeed. Mack is not a good player comparison, however. Oehrlein is a much better "pro" guard prospect. Based on Oehrlein's physical profile and "stat-sheet-stuffing" style of play, good NCAA player comparisons for Tori Oehrlein are LSU's...

Thanks for the insights. Great debate starter. We all want to know. I'll say that 5' 11" record-setting Tori Oehrlein is regarded as a better talent -- and Big Ten prospect -- than speedy 5' 9" point guard Addi Mack who is starting for Maryland. Oehrlein as a combo guard also is a fit for...

1. I am Minnesota Golden Gophers Women's Basketball all-time leading scorer with 3,093 points. 2. Famous for my "how did she do that" plays as a guard, I held the program record for scoring for 12 years, and after missing five weeks for breaking my hand, I led the Minnesota Gophers to the Final...
