    Geno's opinion on "one and done" in women's college hoops

    https://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/story/_/id/39969121/geno-auriemma-says-one-done-rule-ruin-women-college-basketball He doesn't like it....hope it does not happen. The emergence of NIL money might help keep 'one and done' out....according to Geno.

    Incredible UConn basketball stats! Congrats to the UConn men!

    17-0 in the NCAA Championship game! Women 11-0 Men 6-0. Never say 'never' but then again...no college will ever match that.

    Tenn. has hired....

    Kim Caldwell as their new head coach. She spent this season at Marshall. I'd love to hear reactions from LadyVol fans.

    Dawn Staley AP Coach of the Year

    https://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/story/_/id/39874407/dawn-staley-named-ap-coach-year-2nd AP Coach of the Year...Dawn Staley Quite a few deserving coaches....including our own. Losing all 5 starters from last year and going undefeated [So Far!] is worthy of that honor.

    shown again? I assume ESPN or a sister station will have it.

    Great TV viewing come Saturday evening! Men's final 8 game against Illinois starts at 6:10...on both TrueTV and TBS. Women's sweet 16 game against Duke starts at 8:00...on ESPN. Cheer early/then cheer late....and then have a sweet sleep...hopefully.

    A WOW performance by Iowa State this afternoon

    Big 12 semis-game. ISU dominated best in Big 12 [Oklahoma] 85-68...nowhere near that close overall. Several good frosh for ISU...frosh Crooks had 25...could not be stopped inside...too tall/too wide...finished inside very well. Guards were solid...lots of treys taken/lots made. OU was...

    Boneyarders on site

    I know the game is not until 2:30 but I figure there will be Boneyarders already there or about to filter in. Puleez keep your eyes out for any visions of Aaliyah...whether not suited for play or out on the court warming up. AND let us know ASAP. If she can't go, hope the team play gets mucho...

    ESPN article on Aaliyah's injury

    https://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/story/_/id/39693289/uconn-aaliyah-edwards-suffers-facial-injury-vs-providence Nothing really new. Anything from Geno in his presser?

    OT: UConn hockey is conference champ! (Merged)

    Eric...where in the Sam Hill are you?

    I just love....LOVE...what Ice Brady is doing. She'll be one solid player next year. Oops...she is becoming that this year. Doing Ice Brady things...playing with confidence....handling the ball MUCH better. Go Ice!

    Could South Carolina lose tonight...7:00 ESPN?

    As deep and talented as they are there have been a couple of games where they were challenged. They are playing at Tenn. tonight...an unranked Tenn. It seems to me that despite their final 4 drought [last is 2008...yikes!] LadyVol always has significant talent...enough to beat an elite team...

    Iowa player...47 points...no big deal!

    Except that the player who went for 47 is Hannah Stuelke. Clark...a mere 27.

    Elena Delle Donne taking a break

    Geno's comments...from ESPN...hmm

    https://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/story/_/id/39480925/geno-auriemma-gets-1200th-win-uconn-routs-seton-hall How seriously should we take these? More importantly...how should UConn recruiting targets take them? Go Huskies! Upset Sunday is coming our way!

    Big game Thursday!

    South Carolina at LSU at 8:00...don't know who is broadcasting it. Only in a couple of games has SC shown some vulnerability...might this be one? BTW: quite appropriately on Super Bowl Sunday February 11 UConn is at SC. Fortunately our game is at 2:00 on espn while after hours of blathering on...

    Upsets!

    NC State goes down...double digits...to Miami...lost last 2of 3. Virginia Tech goes down...double digits...to Duke. Last AP has us 9...NC State 4 or 5. Do we jump them on Monday? I would say 'no'...that solid win over UConn still tilts it to me. Another loss...say over the weekend...we will...

    NC State no longer undefeated.

    Va. Tech beats them by one. NC State made a lay-up to go up one with 2 seconds to go. Tech throws a deep pass to near the basket....lay-up...win by one. Tremendous ending.

    Player comparison....Ashlynn Shade and ???

    Ashlynn is an excellent free throw shooter. Ashlynn has a great mid-range pull-up jumper. Ashlynn has a good trey shot. Plus she makes lay-ups! She isn't super quick and does not have great hops...but plays with great intensity and smarts. There is a dude on our men's team who has a very...

    OT: Rori Harmon gone for season...ACL

    According to ESPN crawl. Huge loss for Texas....she played great against us.

    That Nike event...UConn recruits

    It starts today...ends Thursday. A few days ago a Boneyarder said that Morgan Cheli [class of 2024] and Kelis Fisher [class of 2025] were playing. I hope we can get some stats on them....and the poster said their teams might meet in the semis...maybe a tape if possible? Don't know if we...

    Sunday's game in Minnesota...Azzi?

    I have no expectations about Azzi playing tomorrow. Geno said the knee bothered her at Tuesday's practice. I do wonder if they have had enough time to fully check it out. Hoping for a short term outcome....but for a 100% Azzi when she returns.
  28. Blakeon18

    Pregame...going forward

    Would not be a bit surprised if Geno had one of the staff make a tape of our defense last night...the intensity of it....and the execution. That tape should be lengthy. Prior to upcoming games he might show the team a few of those highlights...whether the opponent is Minnesota or UCLA in a...

    Boneyard scouting gurus...Sunday!

    We know about our 3:00 game Sunday on ABC against NC State. We have Maryland and South Carolina coming up. Well...South Carolina plays at Maryland at 1:00 Sunday...on ABC...a chance for our many experts to help Geno out with some wisdom on how to deal with these two. Please...no OT or we might...

    N.C. State up next...are they good?

    https://gopack.com/sports/womens-basketball/stats/2023-24/charlotte/boxscore/23175 My sense is they are a good program. This season they are not ranked in the top 25. That surprises me. I checked their site and in their first game they routed NC Charlotte 84-43 [36-8 after quarter one]...

    Paige and her 'bad game'

    https://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/story/_/id/38852886/well-balanced-uconn-beats-dayton-paige-bueckers-return-acl-injury She says she is OK with it because she is on the court and not merely a spectator as last year. Geno a 'pleaser'? Bet she has a serious bounce-back at North...

    A 'WOW" ending

    Grand Canyon beat St.Mary's 55-52 with a buzzer-beater three. That happens. How about Grand Canyon closing out the game scoring the last 22 points? Kinda rare! I could not locate a video of the last few seconds....hope someone can find and link it.
