Very intrigued to see her play. At first glance there are shades of Cameron Brink to her game with her length and athleticism. Hard to tell how we’ll Euro-league highlights translate, but if she stays in Columbia for 3 years she come become a monster

Agreed. Not that UCONN needs any help for cementing themselves as a legitimate top team, but Louisville is looking like a really solid win. The margin is also deceiving, it was a 13 point game but it was a blowout, UCONN was up by 20+ most of the game and the game was over 5 minutes into it.

Shepard is far more dynamic than Crooks IMO. I love Audi but don’t see any viable future for her in the pros. She’s too slow defensively to matchup with quality 4s and 5s and doesn’t crash the glass (likely by design) to save energy getting up and down the court. I think Courtney Paris is a...

To be fair it almost worked for Kansas today. Biggest problem IMO is late in the game they didn’t send a double when everyone knew they were moving the ball around to get it to Crooks inside.

If I’m a transfer I’d 100% want to go to A&M. You’d get his coaching plus get ample playing time and play in the SEC. I think next year will be a rebuild but he’ll make them competitive for years to come. Great season by Kentucky but sort of a damaging legacy moment for Skinner IMO. He made...

I don't think UCONN players could based on eligibility. Ducharme only played a few games last year but they were in the NCAA tournament which works against her case to petition for a 6th year. Fudd/Williams are out of eligibility. Madina Okot at South Carolina could potentially get another...

I thought they were the best team I’ve seen since Penn State in 2008/2009. Elite All American players at every position, great depth and just destroying everyone left and right as the season went along. They had won like 69 of the last 70 sets they played and were breaking a lot of records and...

I think if Texas beats LSU/SC on the road consecutively next month they'll overtake UCONN for #1 in the polls. Realistically though I think they lose at least 1 of those games, possibly both. It's still early but Texas is off to its best start under Vic Schaefer. They look like a real...

I'm surprised anyone switched their vote after last week. Most voters are more loyal to their #1 team week by week unless they lose. Imagine being Texas and beating the #13 team by 35 points and losing a 1st place vote.

Both teams have arguments for #1 and should split as a result of it. I can’t imagine any voter being convinced to switch their vote this week.

Easily one of the biggest of all time. Only one that is comparable IMO is 2007 Nebraska getting swept by Cal, but that was on a neutral court and this was at home in front of an insane crowd. In women’s basketball terms this was comparable to 2017 UCONN/Mississippi State or 2013 Baylor/Louisville.

I’d take Edwards if I’m building a team but if we’re talking about who is having thus better season thus far I’d pick Crooks. As @visitingcock noted it’s still early in the season though and schedules are going to get beefed up soon. Last year most thought Hannah Hidalgo was the clear favorite...

Blakes might have work to do against top teams but Crooks solidified her spot as a real contender IMO with her complete domination of Iowa and Heiden/Stuelke inside. She leads the nation in scoring averaging more than a point per minute played and is shooting 72% from the floor for a top 10...

Definitely a different approach, but it's pretty impressive they're going in and ranking almost 100 players each week including players from much smaller programs that probably get no exposure elsewhere.

Blakes and Crooks should both be on here too
