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.

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.
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.
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...
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...

Nothing really new. Anything from Geno in his presser?
Defeated Northeastern 1-0 in OT. Northeastern had won 6 BE championships in a row.
Fantastic game...exciting OT. Congrats!
Excuse me....the women's team!
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!
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...
According to ESPN Elena will not sign an extension and is taking a year off.

How seriously should we take these?
More importantly...how should UConn recruiting targets take them?
Go Huskies! Upset Sunday is coming our way!
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...
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...
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.
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...
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...
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.
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...
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...
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]...
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...
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.
