  1. Iowa and LSU make sense.. the other three have pretty crowded houses for bigs. In truth I see her fitting very well with us or Iowa... both with good guards both with a good 4 and both with a glaring need of post presence
  2. I think we should move up, but not enough to have a manageable game 2.
  3. They won by 11 and outscored us by 12 on the charity stripe, this isn't exactly science. The problem I have, why did the refs let them play physical under the basket and not let us play physical. Anyway it was a nice effort.
  4. Well, if your 5'10" and dunking, your a pretty good athlete and athletic defender at the guard spot is a need.
  5. Speaking of injuries, I notice Kennadi was inserted as a pinch runner. I'm guessing she's well on the mend.
  6. Someone else please shoot...
  7. I agree, but I'd also like her to finish out in style and say what you will it is a numbers game. Truth be told, if you told me at the beginning of the season that we'd be without Miss Potts, I would have guessed we'd be under .500 in the conference slate. To this point the team has exceeded my expectations by far.
  8. This is kind of a troubling trend. This is our fourth game in a row that our point guard has out rebounded our starting post... We need Alexis to step back up and be Alexis
  9. This was actually a big win... looking forward I see 3 W's, 2 L's and 6 50/50's. Assuming we don't take a bad loss with the on paper W's, 2 more wins puts us in and past that were playing for seating.
  10. AW has gotten her butt kicked 8 of 9 times to a lower level in state program. How long do I have to suffer this before she takes a bit of pride in beating Creighton. If she works really hard she can get to .200 winning percentage next year
  11. Seat geek is really easy to use. The purchase fee for your first purchase is a bit steep, but that won't effect you much as the seller.
  12. It's all about the way sports are taught and the way society is run. Why select teams....to win obviously. Why do they cost sooo much. So wealthy parents can chose the coach and who wins and remove the children they don't like. Why are parents trying to buy championships? Why are men wanting to play in women's sports? (It's because the prize is important and the competition is not). Truth in life "if you're not enough without the medal, there's nothing a medal can do for you" I always enjoyed getting my butt whooped, cause I knew I'd get better.
  13. B1G+ Got a subscription and remain unimpressed. Broadcasters broken and lack good color. I love listening to Coatman, but broadcast isn't synced well, so I always know what's happening 10 seconds before it airs. I think you're better off listening to Coatman1 and going to home games, but that's my personal opinion
  14. The problem is this schedule hurts the entire conference. Every team will suffer this in terms of conference rating. I can't excuse this for any reason.
  15. Corey Montgomery was Danielle Pages replacement, so to speak when Danielle graduated. She started the year Kelsey missed on IR. The next year they went undefeated
  16. Charlie Rodgers and Anna Deforge
  17. Danielle Page and Kelsey Griffen
  18. Pretty sure it's hard to break up fights without hands on. No, I've watched literally thousands of games and I cannot say I've seen a single instance where the officials have put hands on in any kind of intimidating manor. I have, however seen hundreds of examples where they should have stepped in earlier. I've also seen hundreds of examples where the reverse is true, or when players have gotten in their faces and unloaded the full 4 letter word dictionary and haven't so much as drawn a T. No it's time the NCAA steps in and gives the officiating some fire power to manage games
  19. I do remember Danielle Page's 6 month recovery, but I'm not going to set my hopes that high. I'm just satisfied with a full recovery, both mentally and physically
  20. The biggest steal in the portal could be Kiki Iriafen from Stanford. A little surprised more from Stanford haven't defected.
  21. Does anyone know if we have offered to anyone in the portal?
  22. I'd also snap up von Oelhoffen from OSU
  23. A few thoughts........ We are going to have change our recruiting strategy, cause the west coast should now be open for business. If we efficiently change up, the length and atheleticism should take care of itself (Lot's of talent on the west coast). Fundamentally I think we do pretty poorly here. Pass, catch and boxing out we need to do a better job of teaching and pounding the importance of that. Let's go Cook here (serve and serve receive is the most important part of the game. In spite of how much the crowd loves the thunder shot and the roof). I am sick of watching lazy passes being our down fall. I also think our offense needs to be tweaked. Long entry passes and the three point line are not going to beat the best teams (usually). We need to do more with dribble penetration and midrange. That being said, I do think we are going in the right direction. We took coach Williams as a feel good hire, but any amount of common sense should have told us that she was going to take a bit of time developing as a coach. Though I've questioned it in the past, I do think she has turned the corner. So I do think our future is pretty bright, but I also think we're a still about 4 years away from that tremendously bright future
  24. Edwards did lean in just a bit (marginally). It's something that you maybe call the first five minutes to set a tone. After the first 5 probably not and in the last 2 minutes definitely not
  25. Thank you HB
