She deserves a lifetime contract.

Watched the beginning of the George Washington vs Dayton game. Caught a glimpse of the Dayton coach (kneeling) almost almost up the half court (see photo)...are coaches allowed to coach from there?

No. There's a white hash mark where the "S" is, just to her right, which demarcates the "coach's box." She's supposed to be inside that mark. But enforcement isn't so hyper-vigilant.

A lot of women's games broadcast on TV today. I'm going to start out watching Maryland/Iowa (can't get enough of Megan Gustafson) and switch to VaTech/GaTech if that game gets out of hand (or during commercials).

Brent Musberger’s doppelgänger is sitting behind the announcers at the Dayton/GW game.

The VaTech/GaTech game is also showing on regional sports networks (for me it's on Fox Sports Southwest). Another one to keep our eye on.

MD triple teaming Gustafson. Teammates will have to come up big. So far, they are.

Maryland has defended Gustafson really well so far

Her teammates are at least stepping up and hitting shots at least.

Nice post feed to Gustafson to take a 3 pt lead after 1Q and get her off the snide.

They are really trying to deny her touches, and were mostly successful. Shakira Austin just lost her on the last possession of 1Q and gave up a layup.

Doyle, Davis, Stewart and Sevillian are all capable scorers for Iowa, and they'll be needed.

Sort of a low scoring game for both teams.
Both defenses have done a great job of taking the opposing offense WAY out of their comfort zone.
Maryland doing a great job of preventing/disrupting the post entry passes to Gustafson.
Iowa doing a great job of transition defense, staying home on their man and boxing out.

I think it would be a lot of fun to watch Gustafson go up against Brown or McCowan.

Both teams are playing very strong defense. Love the hustle

Austin is looking good today. No doubt she was always a tremendous rebounder and shot blocker. Waiting for that offensive game to come, watch out.

I do like that she is being more physical today and active

One official in the GW - Dayton game has called 3 fouls in the first minute and a half of the 4th qtr on GW, 2 of which were very questionable. Then that same official didn't call an obvious foul against Dayton.

Gustafson starting to take a few rushed shots out of her comfort zone. MD's size and post athleticism starting to take a toll. Iowa needs a few 3pt shots to loosen things up.

Her inability to step out from 15 feet is showing against length & athleticism. I would continue to make her catch in front of the post defender and make her score over the length.

Marylands freshmen are playing really well today

As of now, K. Charles has been a no show

0-4 with 3 turnovers

I think both teams are playing D really well and are making each other get out their comfort zone.

The way Maryland is defending Gustafson reminds me of how Iowa State did. In that game she finished with only 13 points and took only 7 shots (4-7). But the supporting cast, Doyle and Stewart particularly, stepped up big in that game.

So far in this game, it's been Davis and Stewart picking up some slack. But Doyle is only 1-6, and I think she'll really need to find her shot.

She plays just like Brionna Jones used to. Always very close to the basket. It will be interesting to see what adjustments both teams will make at halftime.

Well, seeing as there is no love lost between USC and Mizzou....perhaps. I'm glad they beat MSU, though, because it means the Gamecocks would win the SEC, outright, by winning out.
All due respect, let me edit your statement above: “seeing as there’s is no love lost between (fill in any team) and Mizzou”. I mean name me one team that doesn’t despise the way Mizzou plays and the way Cunningham behaves? Just sayin :cool:
