Betts still hasn't shown that much against the better teams.  We have plenty of post depth but she is a big part of the future there, and thus far, I'm not seeing what I thought I would from her.  

I agree with all your points.  I will add this about Betts which most fans will probably take objection.    I don't feel Betts is ready yet for the speed of top level DI college BB.   I would give her plenty of playing time in games where there is no doubt about the outcome.

I believe next year will be Betts' year largely because she will have time to grow into her body and be better able to handle the speed of good opponents.  Junior and senior year I look forward to some domination by her in the post.

If I had to predict, I don't think Betts will ever be great.  Her feet & hands are slow.  She's got a good shot close in, but right now, she can't hang onto the ball in a crowd.

I really hope I'm wrong.  Clearly she needs at least a year.  She's someone I would think about red-shirting next year, to give her time to get used to her body and maybe control it better.

But then, I'm spoiled by Brink.
