Reminder that swain has played exactly 0 minutes in college basketball, and while it is reasonable to be optimistic about her prospects, there are tons of examples of highly touted prospects who don’t wind up panning out in college.

Always easier to see the grass as greener with an untested, highly touted prospect than the known warts of a player you have, but everyone has strengths and weaknesses, Lepolo does a lot of things well despite her weaknesses (we would have definitely been better last year with her playing), and Swain will have warts of her own.

BC

True, but one shouldn't be afraid of the unknown. Swain should get a chance to show herself and any freshman will have growing pains, but we've kinda seen Lepolo's ceiling but we don't know what Swain can do.

Don't just stick with the veteran and limit yourself if the freshman can potentially offer a higher ceiling
