Not a surprise. By contrast, a colleague of mine noted that Kymora Johnson "liked" a university social media post announcing the leadership change for women's basketball.; and, saw a screenshot of it. Since Johnson made her feelings public, it doesn't seem likes she's upset about the firing...

Two words, in my opinion, for this departure: Aaliyah Chavez. When your backcourt running mate demands the ball before, during and planning for next possession every time, I'd hit the road, too. She could make a very good running mate for a guard who can share...even a little.

Berube/N'Western is one reason why at least two of us thought of Megan Griffiths of Columbia.

I just wrote Griffith's name in an e-mail to another hoopster fan. Two WNIT/WBIT finals in a few years -- with one win -- for an Ivy program that was in the doldrums before she arrived. Finds those kids that can be developed, have perspective and want to be at the school. She then combines...

Wow. Top Three Scorers out after making first NCAA appearance since 2022. Here are those top three. Given that the Coach is now out, wouldn't be surprised to entering more Bulldogs to this list...

Well, the timing of my question was right....I asked on Friday night and the university announces she's gone on Saturday. Of course, the question goes around the chicken or the egg? What did she do (or perhaps the university didn't do...have a small NIL pool) to reach a "mutually agreed upon...

OK, gang. What's going on in Athens (Georgia)? They made the NCAA's for the first time since 2022 and now the team is hitting the exits? Coach? Lack of NIL? Some combination thereof? Any insights from our SEC brethren?

The Portland Fire's selection of Emily Engstler and Sug Sutton could have a direct impact on whom the Washington Mystics take with a few of their three first-round picks. Sug Sutton was ostensibly running the point for the team at the end of last year. Georgia Amoore, after rehabbing her knee...

Here's a list of who is going where in the WNBA Expansion Draft (list courtesy of ESPN) Here is the full list of players selected, listed in the order they were picked by each team: Portland Fire Bridget Carleton, Minnesota Lynx F Carla Leite, Golden State Valkyries G Luisa Geiselsoder...

Amen 😉 And I'm trying to keep a list of potentials for the Irish over on The Bench (ugh!)

Mary Ashley Stevenson played well as a frosh at Purdue. I was not surprised to see her transfer to The Farm because she went to an exceptional private high school in Manhattan. However, things didn't seem to work out for her on the court and her minutes seemed to be diminishing. The Ivies do...

No. That's Not Happening. The Reynolds father coached all three of his girls at Washington HS (home of Skylar Diggins and Jacqui Batteast) and there was never any serious interest between the sisters and ND and there are plenty of inferences that it was about the father who tried to package the...

Wasn't she having a good game against UVA and was benched at the end of the game, while UVA caught and passed the Bulldogs?

It was posted....and I've seen that elsewhere.
