    OT: Anyone use Legacybox or one of its competitors?

    I have had good results converting my family’s Super 8 movies to digital with Legacy Digital Productions. I sent them 5” and 7” reels along with a solid state hard drive, and they returned the reels with the digital files on the hard drive. I ordered the Pro 2K conversions with color...

    Thoughts on injuries

    I don’t have hard data to support this, but from a qualitatative standpoint, I think that UConn had fewer problems with ACL injuries, meniscal tears, and other problems requiring surgery during the years when Rosemary Ragle was the athletic trainer for the UConn women’s basketball program...

    Path Forward for UConn

    The B1G is much smarter than you think. Unlike the SEC, the B1G can offer content to media partners from noon until 1 a.m. I’ll bet you a large pizza that FSU and at least 1 other school will leave the ACC by 2030. Keep your eye on the Magnificent 7 plus Louisville.

    Justine Ward Engaged

    Congratulations and best of luck to her! I enjoyed watching her interviews with Geno. I think she earned her MBA at Notre Dame after she left SNY. I’ve seen her more recently on the Big Ten Network. She’s professional and telegenic.

    What do we do now?

    Conference realignment speculation is a good time waster. Mosey over to the conference realignment board on the Boneyard. There also reportedly is lots of speculation about conference realignment on Twitter and in YouTube videos. UConn fans are speculating about whether UConn will get an...

    Who will be Geno’s starting point guard in the NCAA tournament?

    Nice sarcasm. The voters may be the best basketball minds in the Big East, but I’d like to know why they selected Nika, who had a defensive rating of 87.2, rather than some other players with significantly better defensive ratings, such as Dorka, Aaliyah, or Aubrey. Dorka had a defensive...

    Who will be Geno’s starting point guard in the NCAA tournament?

    I didn’t give her a pass on her eFG%; I said her shooting was subpar, which means it was below her usual or normal level or standard. I believe eFG% is important. But at the end of the day, basketball is about scoring points, and keeping your opponent from scoring points. I give Azzi credit...

    Who will be Geno’s starting point guard in the NCAA tournament?

    We’ll have to agree to disagree. You and Bald Husky think that Azzi was terrible in the Ohio State game, and I do not. I said Azzi’s shooting was subpar, which was not surprising given Ohio State’s well-executed defense. But her overall performance wasn’t terrible. She was only 1 point below...

    Who will be Geno’s starting point guard in the NCAA tournament?

    Azzi wasn’t “terrible” in the Ohio State game. She had a subpar shooting game — 6-17, or 35.3%— but she still managed to score 14 points, only 1.1 point below her season average. She also had 3 rebounds, above her season average of 1.9, and she had an impressive 5 steals, or 25% of her season...

    Who will be Geno’s starting point guard in the NCAA tournament?

    Good analysis. I think that Geno will probably conclude that his offense is most efficacious and potent with Paige at the 1 and Azzi at the 2. Time will tell. With Caroline’s concussions and Aubrey’s back issues, there are definitely question marks at the 3 position. We’re all hoping that...

    Who will be Geno’s starting point guard in the NCAA tournament?

    I think that Geno will choose Paige as his starting point guard in the NCAA tournament. As others have noted, Paige can be effective at the 1 - 3 positions. If she plays shooting guard, she takes away Azzi’s optimal position, so I think Geno will probably play Paige at the 1 or 3. If she...

    Which of the "newbies" will be the biggest surprise?

    I chose Shade. I think that Jana and Ice will have the biggest impact of all of the poll candidates, but their performances won’t be as much of a surprise as Shade’s. Ice spent last season observing the team from the bench. Jana has been working out with the team since January, and Geno...

    Who will be Geno’s starting point guard in the NCAA tournament?

    I agree with you that there can be more than one starting point guard. I structured the poll so that a poll respondent would have to make one choice. If you allow a poll respondent to select two choices, say Paige and Nika, it becomes harder to differentiate the candidates in the cumulative...
