I don't understand how you can say this in the face of four national championships. I don't agree with many of her social stances, but she is a good coach.

6 out of the top ten from the SEC, I don't think so.

I'm recovering from some years of a medical ordeal (found out in my early 70's that I have a hereditary disorder called ATTR that resulted in a heart transplant followed by 3 bouts with prostate cancer). Gained a lot of weight, up to 210 lbs for a 5'9" guy. Now at 79 have now lost about 20 lbs...

1. SC 2. TX 3. TN 4. OU 5. KY 6. LSU 7. MS The rest

I agree they'll be better: what worked against their system in the past year was their abysmal 3pt shooting. If they can combine the pressure and turnovers with a decent (35+%) 3pt percentage, they'll be dangerous to any team.

Napheesa is one of those players who just continued to imporove as the years went bye: as a freshman she did not have the stats or the reputation of Katie Lou but she continued to improve her game and by her senior year was a better player than Katie Lou. She has just continued that trend in...

Autumn Chassion: She went off to Xavier I think, but don't know what success she had there basketball wise. She was an excellent student.

I don't think we definitely need Serah Williams: she would be a good addition, and nice to have as an option, but I don't see her as a necessity.

I don't like Fulwiley and LSU because of her defensive shortcomings. Her inability to play consistently good defense is why her minutes were limited at SC, and also why they will be limited at LSU. Both Staley and Mulkey demand good defense to get playing time: I have no idea why she thinks it...

Not THAT bad

This story is just a reminder that the majority of college athletes "don't go pro". Drake star’s choice is one for the books

Take a look at Indiana State's roster (I taught there for 4 years): they have 0 returning players on next year's roster as 11 players have entered the portal and the remaining players have no remaining eligibility. If I were the AD I would be taking a good long look at whether I wanted to...

I agree for the returning players, but the big question is who doesn't start if Blanca is as good as she looks in the videos I've seen?

I wrote my note before I read all the others recognizing the job Scott Rueck did this year. It seems what he did is recognized as a superlative job by most on this board (even though they'll probably be out in the first weekend).

I know he won't even be considered, but I think Scott Rueck did a wonderful job this year - consider what they had left, who he recruited, and the difference between Oregon State at the beginning of the season and Oregon State now.
