Curious myself... If she does that’s a lot of back court bodies and i say let the cream rise to the top but i can’t say i don’t forswe some type of transfers especially if people like Keke Mckinney stay with that extra year next year. It’s a good dilemma to have but Elzy will have to find some minutes. I can’t see Howard really resting if it’s not a blow out... I see her and patterson averaging at least 25-30 min a game. Playing time is gonna be tight but that’s going to breed competition. just like i hope it does for our ladies.
Keke staying wouldn't be a problem. That's actually good because she would provide more post depth. If Patterson stayed another year, and she very well could because she really has only 1 solid semester of college ball under her belt, I could see some of the less heralded guards (Blair Green and the freshmen not named Treasure Hunt) looking elsewhere...and I think that Elzy wouldn't mind having Patterson for another year. The perfect setup for UK would be Patterson/Massengill at PG, Howard/Hunt/Benton combining for SG/SF, McKinney (also playing some SF)/Edwards (also playing some C) at PF, and Owens/6'3 freshman at C. The rest of them would be secondary to this main rotation.
If Rennia stays for Tennessee next year, that would make roster management interesting.
