Is that more than 20 . . . uh . . . 21?

Another 6-3 forward???????? If we need a big, we need a post. A center. A bsck to the basket big body. Not a lithe athlete. Kitts Watkins Joyce Feagan But, if Dawn says yes. who am I to argue with the Black Queen.

I knew you were kidding. My post was also. I’m rarely so short winded

No

She had at least an unoffficial with us too

Does this eliminate the transfer and enroll deadline?

their behavior wouldn't be tolerated now by any decent program. They were in the bars every night and were hard drinkers and liked a good fight - in the bars or on the court. One wasn't a fighter - he was a stoner but was in a bar almost every night. Did their church have anything to do with it...

In our last year in the ACC, our team was a bunch of New York City Catholics who drank as much as Coach McGuire. A brawl erupted and one of our players held Lefty while another punched him out. No suspension or anything back in 72-73. ACC hated us for leaving but that was the only brawl of the...

I wish there was a short "Junior Varsity" season in late Summer. Freshman, sophomores and walkons only. Maybe a month of games in August (don't most freshmen take summer-school classes?) Maybe 8 games against nearby schools so travel is not a great expense or time-waster. Bus rides - not planes...

Yes, that disenchantment can be costly and it has cost Dawn one very promising player. Dawn is not perfect. After we took Tehina Paopao in the portal last Spring, then-freshman guard (HG 25), Talaysia Cooper, decided to transfer to Tennessee. She's a good player and was a decent 3-point shooter...

Thank you but I AM biased. I try to keep it under control and somewhere within the bounds of reason. Also, I have to Lee to keep in mind that this is a UCoon board and that UConn is the most dominant program in the history of the game. It will be impossible for us to catch most of Geno’s...

The coach. Check him out. I expect him to be a leader among the next generation of top coaches.

Hard to get into grad programs at Duke, UVA and a handful of your other new ACC siblings. No comment on UNC’s “special” grad programs.

No. Our ROSTER had 11/12 OuR ROTATION had 9 We had 11 on the roster to start the season. We added 1 injured freshman ( Adhel Tac) for second semester so she could get surgery and rehab on our dime, She didn’t play a second all season and is a redshirt. Still 11. Backup-backup post, Sakima...

Would @triaddukefan ha e passed on Betts after her freshman year at Stanford.

I was thinking more about 15-20 minutes per game

How do you have 16 candidates when 15 is the limit?

I feel confident in saying Geno won’t give 15 players prime time minutes.

There were NO freshies on this yearl’s team. And necessity may have forced Dawn’s hand a bit. I dont think she went into the practice with any idea of a starting lineup and it just worked out that way

Similar to what Dawn did this year. I mean a rotation were all nine ( maybe 10) players get over 15 minutes of meaningful time against even high quality opponents. Not counting players who only see mop up time. I am told that Geno has used 9 player meaningful time rotations in the past but...

A few points! Yes, some luck is necessary

Not a problem. You just posted it. The “overstatement” was made by the author.

Cardoso is leaving. That’s all. Joyce z Edwards, Maddy MCDaniel and Adhel Tac are incoming frosh. We will have the firepower. Will we have the paint defense with Kamilla gone?

The use of the word "likely" appears to be a bit of a push

I have serious doubts about UCLA being a title contender. Perhaps I should say, I have serious doubts about Cori Close, In 13 years, under Close, UCLA failed to win a conference title or conference tournament in the PAC. They have reached the Elite 8 only once under her tutelage in 2018. They...

UConn will play SCar in Columbia. This is the makeup for the Covid year cancellation of the game in z Columbia.

Backdoor champ = Not THE number 1seed + previous beatdown by THE number one seed who remained unbeaten til' the semis? You mean you haven't seen any UConn fans refer to our 2017 Championship as being backdoors? Yeah, it's still a championship, but we know we weren't the best team that year...

UConn was THE number one seed and undefeated in 2017 and had soundly beaten the Cocks in the regular season. They may have been the better team, but SCar got the back door pass when MsSt beat UConn in the semi-finals. SCar was THE number one and undefeated in 2023 and had soundly beaten LSU...

While Oregon State has not merely been to the CWS (7 times) , they have won the Championship three times this century. Oregon's one CWS appearance is insignificant compared to the Beavers. UDub is about like da ducks. Southern Cals' baseball is like its WBB (before this year). Once and former...

I'm a huge fan of TCU's coach, Mark Campbell. I feel like he was the person most responsible for Oregon's two year burst of glory (not Graves). He did well in each of his brief spots as a head coach before arriving at TCU and making them relatively competitive in his first year despite not...

3rd most influential Hawkeye? Maybe as far as influencing the Hawkeye program but not as far as influencing "all of Women's Basketball." She is number one. The 18.9 million viewrs are simply the highest ever. I doubled the Hawkeye viewers from the previous year - which doubled the viewers from...

If only that pesky logo shooting guard for Iowa hadn't upset our applecart last year . . . Aren't "if's" fun?? I wonder how many backdoor champs there have been? Us in '17. LSU last year. Others?

I guess this baseball season will see the last PAC-12 pennant. Go Beavers! I just realized. the Big 10 might actually have some competitive baseball teams.

“Most attention” is a different subject than ‘best player.”

Over the past five seasons, we are 167-9. Out of the 4 championships during that 5 year period, we have won two and have been in every final four. Though others pretend to laugh at our garnet banner, we beat UConn, Baylor, Maryland and Vic's Miss St (thrice in going 32-1. Simply put, We ARE the...
