There have been quite a few discussions n this in multiple media’s including a podcast I heard with Charlie Creme. So there are some points that need to be made AND understood by this group to prevent redundant and fruitless discussions. #1. NET and Quad 1 wins are just ONE VARIABLE cosidered...

Huh? Nothing in all the videos I have seen suggests she’s a top 5 recruit. Go rewatch her GAMES and then go look at the HoopGurlz rankings and their games. She is not a top 5 recruit by any stretch. She foul be top 20 and possibly 15 but that is stretching it. I am not sure if you are...

Well 2 weeks ago, when Baylor as 4-3, you said "Baylor" was an interesting case? Now they are 7-4 and I still do not think they are an interesting case. According to the NCAA, Baylor is 26 now, leading to my point that back they were not "interesting" So let me flip it around, why did or do you...

I think when I look at the other HM's on the list, I look at their competition and go "Meh", whereas with Azzi in a Nationally Televised game of noteworthy conference importance, she shined. Adding her name to the list for other media centers to pick up upon, would certainly have been the savvy...

I am actually pretty impressed that 18 teams are still undefeated in conference play. While I do think there is some parity due the depth of more quality players, what @Vowelguy is proving is the Mid-Majors have some good coaches who maximize their talent vs. their peers. Some of these coaches...

What about 2012-13 season when ND beat us the 1st 3 times on 1/5/2013 73-72, 3/4/2013 96-87, 3/12/2013 61-59 and then we beat them in the national Semi-final 83-65? That was so, so, so SWEET. I still think @Plebe looks at his MM gif with the player dancing on the sidelines with glee.

This is nice work by @TWG236 and I would add that in 2024-25 there is significantly a deeper pool of talent in the game that more teams seeded 1-4 (by region which is what the stat is showing) have on their rosters than occurred even 10 years ago, let alone way back in 1995.

Let me say this-I think the "lack of calls" benefits a physical opponent vs. UConn as Geno and staff have been regularly citing to NOT FOUL, be in position, move your feet, communicate etc. whereas other opponents, whack, block, hack, push and grab sometimes so much so, the officials simply stop...

There, fixed it for you.... 😂

As Sun Tzu so famously said, "keep your friends close but your enemies closer", I keep a keen eye on Tennessee and I strongly disagree with both @Cuango and @Bone Dog on their assessments. #1. This freshman class is ALL Caldwell and was highly touted. #2. The advent of the "portal" now makes...

Am I missing something or has Caroline said previously that she wants to pursue a coaching career? It seems to me there is a LOT of projecting going on here in this thread and in other threads. I have never seen any quote attributable to Carol that she wants to coach. Do not confuse an injured...

Wow and people say I am harsh! When Geno needed Jana in the first half to defend the paint, he put her in and she did a very good job. And she didn't commit ANY fouls in her limited minutes! The biggest problem yesterday was the two Tennessee bigs-Spearman and Barker, play a lot on the...

Happy for Allie, who besides the unbelievable Xavier game did well in the second half of the Tenn game with 10 pts on 3-6 FG%. Given the "degree of difficulty" I would have selected Azzi who had a phenomenal game yesterday who was instrumental in the win as the keystone whereas Allie was 5th or...

I will say there were significantly less LV fans in Hartford this year (or at least a lot less wearing the “gaudy Orange”). Talaysia Cooper was touted on the Naismith Defensive Player of the year list and Azzi wasn’t add in @cferraro04 pre game analysis giving Copper the edge over Azzi and you...
