I agree. But if you take Caldwell at her word, she tried that approach. Hence my question - can things get so bad that a coach takes this drastic step? Certainly, given the amount of media and social media coverage, public pushback from one of the team's parents, and the fact that Dawn even...

Before making my main point, I want to mention two biases that I have. 1) I am an one of those who hopes that Tennessee WCBB can regain it's footing. I believe that the growth of the game and public acceptance will be enhanced by legacy programs remaining or regaining top strength, which in...

There are so many more channels that air games, which means there are many more women and men hired to broadcast them. That's a good thing. But it also means that for myself, when I watch games I sometimes am listening to broadcasters who I haven't heard before. This season I have seen two...

Apologies if this was mentioned elsewhere. My wife saw on Facebook that the game drew the highest viewership of any women's game this season, and rates as one of the highest ever. I did a quick search and here's a link to an article on the viewership...

As regards getting a rebound up high and then bringing it down: I wonder if players feel that they are less :strong" or in control holding the ball over their head versus holding it closer to their chest, and that is why so many bring the ball down. In my very limited time playing basketball...

IMO, that's not even close to accurate when you listen to Caldwell speak. Take the Miss State game where she had every right to throw the players under the bus - she cited players being late to practice, not listening in practice, etc which led to her accurate premonition that they would tank...

I think there are a lot of factors, including Kim's system. Other things possibly influencing their season overall and yesterday's game specifically. 1) Back in November when Kim dismissed Ruby Whitehorn from the team, with I believe sorrow and reluctance, she clearly stated that this was to...

This would be nice but .............. Every referee crew is different, and the same crews aren't necessarily consistent game to game, or even first half to second half. Obviously, teams need to quickly adjust to whether the officials are letting them play or are calling even the slightest...

I agree - the game on Sunday coming on the heels of this disastrous showing could be the make or break part of their season. It's hard to tell from watching a single game but I wonder if the speculated locker room corrosiveness of Caldwell having to dismiss Ruby Whitehorn at the start of the...

How dare they! Now that CT is known and accepted as the Pizza Capital of the World, I repeat, how dare they? After all, what could be better than to celebrate being the Basketball Capital with having food from the Pizza Capital? 😀
