I see that Taylor and Talia are attending media day with Rueck. Both great players and probably the 2 most important on the roster, but I am a little surprised that Taya isn’t participating. Tough choice and Talia is a star, but I think Taya and Taylor should be there. Unless Taya didn’t want to.
Thoughts?

I would think that it is more likely that Taya is unable to rather than not want to. Taylor and Talia will do a great job of representing the BEAVERS.

Taya, while a good interview, is maybe too reserved, quiet. Taylor is not, at all, enjoys being in the spotlight. Talia got all the attention because of her situation, early enrollment, success on the court, etc. folks want to hear her story. That's my guess why they got picked. I was trying to remember back who they picked previously, I know Destiny & ? , Mik & Marie were one year for sure.

Talia is also the point guard and will be the leader of the team on the court. If the point guard is very talented they will usually take precedence over any other player. It is appropriate that they sent her.

This is huge news for Arizona, and a decision made really early by Cate. She's a great player but I am curious to see how playing time is dished out on the front line for Arizona this year. They brought in a couple really good front court transfers for this season to join Cate Reese up.
Selfishly, I wish Aleah would of come back for her super Senior season, but she landed a terrific job, so I'm happy for her.

In other words, nobody you need to build a game plan around to try to stop.

I'm not sure what other fans' opinions on "good" vs "great" or don't have to game plan for them, but Cate is very good. OSU would love to have a experienced big at 6'2" good mobility with:
95 starts
12.2 pts / 6.5 reb in only 26 min/game
Less than 2 TOs/game and shoots 48% overall, 35% from three, 78% from the line
2020 & 2021 All-Pac-12 2020 & 2021 Pac-12 Winter Academic Honor Roll Three-time Pac-12 Player of the Week 2020 Katrina McClain Award Finalist 2019 Pac-12 All-Freshman Three-time Pac-12 Freshman of the Week 2019 Arizona Athletics Female Freshman of the Year
If she's not great, ok. But, I believe she's got better career numbers and consistency than any OSU returner?? It's a big deal for Zona that she's returning and a negative for their opponents.
