Additionally, some countries can have a shining star with no national team to play on....

Umm.... not be be a downer, but you might want to chat with the professors. UConn students, staff speak out about proposed budget cuts

How many games did he miss?

This is about coaches, right?

It All Started With Sue Bird The WNBA legend on her new documentary, In the Clutch, and why the work never really stops, even during retirement Sue Bird is not really into astrology, but she knows she is a Libra. As a point guard, Bird embodied the very essence of Libra energy every time she...

I'm not surprised, but it's tough to see a legend exit. Related: Her Shooting from the Outside is a classic must-read. Stunningly honest.

It sure would help to have a "So You Think You Can Ref" session or three. Give access to the training materials refs use. Also, posted this a while back, but since the refs are independent contractors, they need to be paid for PD (beyond the prof. dev. they already pay for (ref camps) and do on...

I keep seeing Walz's name but I'm wondering if he might be on a slightly warm seat? What kind of recruits does he have coming in?

True. Diana NEVER complained about call not going her way.

Great analysis AND a perfect example of Stewie's media chops. Takes the question and turns it into a statement so the interviewer doesn't have to be in the clip. "Tell me about what sets her apart?" "What sets Paige apart it..."

Flashback:

Was at the game and could NOT understand why they only sent van Lith at Clark. Sure, she's dogged, but she gives up 3-4inches. If I'm a coach, I switch it up, sending multiple players in different forms. Make Clarke think and adjust. Instead, team Mulkey put van Lith on an island and told Clarke...

I recognize the internal logistics are a nightmare (but I'm sure ESPN LOVED not having to have four set up/crews). Clearly, there was enough grumping that they'll move back to the four sites. Will say that when folks ask, "why doesn't fillintheblank host, it's important to remember it take a...

https://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/story/_/id/39862772/ncaa-women-tournament-brass-mull-changes-summer Personally, I loved having the 16/8s in the same place 'cause I could get there and see a TON of basketball.

Also, because conferences/coaches give her positive reviews.

*Citation needed Also, I recall a famous game against Rutgers when "stars" sat. And remember when Stacey had to come it to hit that three?

USC post game (starts 34 minutes in)

Quick transcription of CD on the radio: Survive and advance. CD: Exactly. It was … I think we slowed it down a little bit. Maybe a little too much. They were really tired in the first half. We lost a little gas in 4th. Defense: First half.. CD: Defense was great. They’re a good defensive team...

Just pulling this out of the post-game thread for ease of access.

Wait... so you're saying call fouls on star players even though folks say, "we want to see star players play"? I kid, I kid!!!!

Super rushed transcription of post-game w/AE and CD by Debbie and Bob: AE: We had a will to win. We’re built for March Brady presence – created opps to score, not a guard line. Been working on our chemistry. She helped us, especially when Nika went out. For some of us, it might not have been...

Simple: lack of trust. Last few games, nada.

I'll be barreling up from CT post-an early morning event, so likely to miss much of the first half of the first game. Not sure about "in-arena" dining, but there are some great options nearby!

Weird game times will make fooding fun. Anyone want to connect? Also will get in some early morning birding!

Meant to add: Early Access code: BKHOOPS I'm sure UConn will do something for subscribers/fans, but just in case...

Welp... Rep Fail. Got an email announcing a presale... with tickets already disappearing. Texted them and they were like, "We're accepting $500 deposits for suites." Ummm, what part of a group sale = suite interest. Anyhoo, my suggestion is that folks make their own way for tix. OF NOTE: Game 1...

Unless, of course, they want to sell their tickets... lol

Those "in charge" are being forced to reckon with the consequences of the game's growth, coaches' salaries, ridiculous amount of money spent on athletic facilities. The NCAA kicked the can down the road for a while, and now the chickens have come home to roost. I mean, look what is happening to...

Four VERY good players.

Post game with Debbie, Nika talked about being tired, but NOT being tired because of the energy of the crowd.

CD showed up late w/Bob and Debbie. Rough transcription. CD: You can’t say enough about type of kids we have in this prgm. So proud. So resilient. Strong women who look at it and say, “They can do it.” Yesterday was an example and they just continued. Start was amazing. CD: We’ve been trying...
