In response to sparman
We learned last year that Berube can coach, for sure. She got players to buy in to the non-glamorous strategy of defense first and they obviously executed.
The next question is can she recruit, like Banghart could recruit -- time will tell. If she builds a sustainable winning culture, excellent recruiting will be more likely.
She has a challenge next year losing a 6'4" All American player and 6'2" Bauer. She is fortunate to have a 6' player, who can replace Bauer and is probably an upgrade but the hole is Center. It probably all comes down to Kira Emsbo, 6'5", recovering from a bad injury. Junior 6'3" C Lexi Weger is a step down from Emsbo although she got some minutes and improved last year.
Princeton will not be able to compete at the highest level with front court players at only 6' tall so I would anticipate either Emsbo or Weger on the floor if healthy as a tag team.
