Oh, I believe you, sir.
DEMETRE is really a Top 10 recruit from the Class of 2021 - Prospect Nation #7 overall, ASGR #8 overall, Blue Star #10, ESPN Hoopgurlz #11 (she originally was ESPN Hoopgurlz #4, then went down to #7, and finally #11). But what makes her special is for a 6'3 player, she already had a 3-point shot in HS. Therefore, she can be considered a stretch Forward/combo Forward. That versatility will get her some playing time, realistically in the vicinity of 10 to 15 minutes/game
Then there's BOSGANA and EMMA-NNOPU, who are in the pipeline of the Greek and Australian senior national teams, respectively. I bet their respective national coaches want to see them as regular rotation players at Stanford ASAP.
At 6'2, BOSGANA is a tall and lanky SG who is aggressive at driving to the basket and can stroke from 3-point range, kinda giving me that Kate STARBIRD vibe. Unfortunately, the HULL twins and JUMP are ahead of her in the SG depth chart, so it will be a major challenge for her to crack the regular rotation this year.
