I would go a step further wahinefan44, and say with Lanier, Botkin, and Sun on the pins, there will not be a dip in power during rotations. Stanford would be very concerned, as will every Pac 12 team. Sun makes USC a final 4 contender, if that's where she ends up. Without her, the loss of Ambercrombie hurts. Ford stopped progressing after her freshman year, and Krage was somewhat inconsistent last year. Maybe there's a hot shot freshman in the incoming class, but for instant championship caliber, SC needs Lexi. We were all wrong about who the new coach would be, so lets see how we do with the Trojan prediction for young Miss Sun. Makes the off season fun.

How's USC's setter position looking this year?

How's USC's setter position looking this year? Some possibility it is exactly the same as last year, if Meyer-Whalley stays for her final year of eligibility. Otherwise we could see: Marina and Botkin setting, a la Pizza and Baylee, 2015 Marina and Humphreys Or even just Marina in a 5-1? She is 5’11, right? So not super short. I assume Humphreys would beat out Gallegos, but I don’t know much about the prep scene.

They have 2 on the roster now, plus Botkin, and a freshmen coming in whose last name is Humphries. I don't know anything about her. Many, myself included, are hoping Reni returns this season. She has 1 year elgibility left, and is a bombshell on the court, as well as a strong leader. Rumors both ways right now, so we'll see.

So USC fans, what do you think about potential impact on the lineup IF Sun does come? Does Schirmer not start? Does she go RS? Does Lexi go RS?

Tough question DT, but it would be difficult not to start Sun considering everything she accomplished last year. If I were Ford I'd be worried about any playing time. SC will certainly have tremendous firepower. I would guess Lanier, Sun, Botkin, and either Schirmer or Krage. Wonder if he would move Krage to a MB?

Looks like Ford is saying goodbye to USC Did she bring her grades up enough to transfer and how do you know this? I haven't heard this, but its not a surprise. I also think its another sign that Sun is headed to SC. Young Miss Ford had 2 1/2 years to improve her game, and never did.

Looks like Ford is saying goodbye to USC Did she bring her grades up enough to transfer and how do you know this? Just speculation, which is why I deleted the post. But her recent IG post seems to imply she's saying goodbye and her video indicates a huge announcement to come.

Young Miss Ford had 2 1/2 years to improve her game, and never did. Ford struggled with injuries and was also playing in an offense that went against her strengths. I suspect she'll have a successful senior year wherever she lands.

That's funny. I hope she does have a successful senior year where ever she goes.
