81 great question on the posts    Jerome won’t be one of the four and the four will be rotating

Out on a limb here lol

I say it will be Dodson and Prechtel starting.  Dodson because we know Tara loves defense and Dodson is a very good defender.  She could improve a little bit in terms of post defense against say the likes of Taylor Jones at Oregon St, but she is at her best when switched on to perimeter players.  She is quick enough to get out to 3 point shooters and similarly quick enough to stay close to slashers and use her length and timing to block their shots.  Because of Dodson, we would then need a shooting big for spacing and Prechtel is a great shooter.  I think Belibi will play a lot as well.  I don't expect Brink to play a lot of minutes her freshman year because of Dodson's defense and because Prechtel and Belibi have so much potential on offense and you want to give them a lot of reps.  But if Brink does get significant minutes then we will be in good shape because it will mean she is that good.  She can shoot the three but only recently started doing that and doesn't have the strength yet to be a low post banger.  If she does get minutes, I imagine it will be as a 4 playing a similar role as Satou Sabally did at Oregon, namely some 3 point shooting but being most effective on drives to the basket.
