General question for anyone out there who does not live in the SNYviewing area: is there any way to watch these games? SNY does not allow our cable provider in Maine to stream SNY games. So we are locked out of watching the majority of the games. Any suggestions?

Re "Too much passing. . ." I believe I'm seeing too much perimeter passing from our players as they are setting up their offense, passes that do not pose threats to defenses and/or get the ball to a Uconn player in a position to make defensive opponents move and thereby open up lanes for Uconn...

Pretty sure this is Caroline/

"Finesse" is the right word, and it's being replaced more and more with the men's game's reliance on power and muscle, becoming more and more a contact sport—more grabbing, holding, bodying up, and other forms of contact— less and less an exercise in finesse, timing, etc. It was particularly...
