Excellent write-up and you make some good points about what has become a frustrating season. To me the problem is simple. Cal's best teams have had players like Brittney Boyd, Alexis-Gray-Lawson, Layshia Clarendon and Asha Thomas in the backcourt and Reshanda Grey, Kristen Anigwe, Devani Hampson and Jennifer Brandon at the post. They have no one of that quality on the current team. There are no players who can carry them in close games. More concerning is there's no help on the way. There is no one in the next recruiting class and, depending on transfers out, probably only room for one to three newcomers via the portal. Selling five star high schoolers on the program is going to be a tough sell. Hopefully Charmin Smith is up to the task.
