If twitter likes mean anything, our toughest competitor for Gardiner will be Oregon State and UCLA. Most of her likes are related to Oregon State. Her AAU coach is Natalie Williams, who will of course veer her to UCLA.

As talented as Gardiner is, she’s probably more of a luxury than a necessity with Iriafen, Demetre, Brink, and Betts. Gardiner can play three through five, but four is probably her best position. She plays the three for high school because two of her teammates are taller than her and also top-75 players.

Mendelson is one of her teammates, I think she is top-10 (chime in if I’m wrong here, BobK!) in volleyball and top-25 in hoops.

Stanford definitely has a great shot at getting the #1 class in 2022.

I think this makes the three-point shooters even more important for us. Demetre, Bosgana and to a lesser extent Harriel look more like slashers than shooters to me. They should all be sure they shoot at least 500 threes every day and Iriafen might as well do the same. Betts will change how we run our offense to some extent and open up a lot of opportunities for perimeter shooters and slashers.
