I did notice that when Tennessee beat Notre Dame in South Bend last week, 6'5" Tamari Key played a big part in stopping the Irish inside.  But I think Prechtel can do that, if she stays out of foul trouble.

I also think Belibi's power and athleticism can make up for a lot.  It often wasn't the big bigs that were trouble last year - you can get a body into them rebounding, and a lot of them don't have very refined offensive moves.  It was the quick bigs who killed us, taking rebounds away inside.  Hoping that's Fran this year.
