Baylor: Abiola Wabara;
Its good to see Abiola make the list. I think she is an excellent player and will help us in our transition to post-Niemann basketball at Baylor. I, for one, think she will be a difference maker for Baylor this year and I think this list demonstrates that as well.

I think that is a good list. I would have A'Quonesia Franklin from A&M rather than Morenike though. Franklin was tearing it up at the end of the season. She will end her career a few years from now as one of the better pgs to play in this conference.

DblT81, I agree with you on Franklin being ahead of Morenike.

Leah Rush, Oklahoma
Tiffany Jackson, Texas
Erin Grant, Texas Tech That coincidently looks exactly like the 1st line-up I was submitting for the first round of Hoopla ;)

It's a great list with some great players. I also think there are a number of players throughout the Big XII who could have been named honorable mention. Hopefully, not being so named will motivate them to play harder throughout the season.

Isn't the Big XII awesome!

I just noticed that the preseason team doesn't have a true post on it. I wonder how long it's been since that happened?

Hopefully, there will be one on the post-season team. ;)
