If anyone that has seen SStricklen, and might have an opinion,
please...
Could Stricklen play the 2, or even a 1 spot??
(all info lists position as F, exc. at the YDF rankings, which show her as a G- possible typo?)
How close is she to being able to handle those two positions?
(how sure w/the ball; quickness; court awareness? etc.)
If not, would her inside/mid-game need any improvements in a particular area or two??
(can she rebound/handle the ball inside?)

Much thanks to anyone willing to tell me what they can!

Smokey, Chris will have a story on Stricklen, maybe next week, that will address many of your questions. But, for now, I'll address your questions on position. We screwed up her position classification - period. We always meant to classify her as a guard and I can't say what happened, but we are going to update the rankings once more before July and we'll correct it then. I think point guard would be a stretch for her, but she's definitely a shooting guard.

Appreciate the information, Mr. Glenn.
Great job on the site, continuing to be the best.
Will look for the article coming on SStricklen.

Well, now I'll be looking forward even more to that write-up on SStricklen.
Thanks for the scoop, and the post to the Summit.

BTW, Chris and I discussed it and we are reclassifying Stricklen as a wing.

She could play the 2-4, best at the 3 in my opinion. She's better at scoring than distributing so making her handle the ball as a one would be wasting some of her talents in my opinion.
