I see Paige in all these commercials and wonder if it changed her. Nope. Being kind is her default mode.

When your two first team All-Americans shoot a combined 7-31, not much more can be said.

She has made so much progress in the last two years. Love her attitude.

The path the last two games wasn’t easy but Final Four trip number 25 and a 38-0 record. Amazing. Blanca, the MOP, came up big when it was most needed. UConn did a great job on Hidalgo. She is just so good. Jana didn't get much time but wow did she step up with the minutes she got. Geno...

You almost take Strong’s brilliance for granted but Blanca’s performance today in my mind was the difference in the game. For the first time I think in 37 games, Geno called timeout because they looked tired. Rare indeed. Strong for sure, needed the extended minutes. The early cold shooting...

Toomey played 12 minutes against Maryland. None down the stretch. Maybe she was hurt.

I have a thought as to why Coach Jack MIGHT be showing her unhappiness about the draw. Syracuse beat Virginia by 19 during the regular season yet the Cavs are going to the Sweet 16. I think she would have liked her chances playing Iowa a lot more than having to get the draw she got. Just a...

Ryan Russo understated that the Huskies played their best first half of the year. Visually, statistically, defensively, it could arguably be their best first half ever. The key, I guess, to their unreal defense is the press. Their half court defense without it was not all that great in both...

Ivey and Noren had to see it. At the time, Shade and Patterson were arguably the top players in Indiana.

Jack is a good coach. Would she be 35-0 with Geno's roster? Probably not. Would Jack have a top ten team if she had Strong and Fudd? Probably. I think her point was that, it is a combination of talented players that make an unusual commitment to defense and team play.

Had to read the thread to find out what diaspora meant.😉

You seemingly live and die with the three yet you have hardly anybody who can shoot them. I think she can coach but Tennesee is a bad fit. Hockey shift subbing does not work with SEC athletes with corresponding big egos.

Playing zone with that much time left and the regulars was, in my opinion, not just a case of calling off the dogs. I think the staff thinks that one of their future opponents is vulnerable against the zone. Whatever the reason, they weren't very good in it. I was surprised by how much they...

He isn't trying to be the cool grandpa (even though calling his player dude in a timeout makes me wonder. 😊). He is just smart enough to pay attention to what his players need and adapt without compromising his core values. I was one of those who thought maybe his time to stop was near. But...

Here is one. Sarah is third in minutes played. I realize she missed a game but the gap between Strong and Ash is over 40 minutes. Talk about load management. 😉
