    Is Edwards now on the Wall?

    It appears she is on the WBCA 10 member all American list as of a few days ago. Did I miss something? Was this already posted. I cannot imagine something like this could be missed by the Boneyard, so am I just misreading something?

    Anyone know when the team heads to Portland?

    It seems we do not do well in late west coast games. Are we playing at 8 pm EDT or is that local time, PDT? If the latter it would fell like 11 to them. Only break is Duke is also travelling 3 time zones. Hopefully on Monday, we have two more days to adjust. Am I jumping ahead and assuming...

    people worrying about all the teams ahead of us

    so after today Texas has 2 recent losses (they miss Harmon) and after going 14-0 Baylor loses 2 in a row. We keep piling up great wins against good but not great teams. All we can do. Our NET and our stats are improving. This team is coming together. Last question they face, can they win...

    great for the BE but....

    St johns beating Purdue in 3rd quarter, but I notice in the box score that all 8 players who have been in for St. John's so far are seniors. Is that really correct? What are they doing for next year. This may belong in General, but it is BE related and that could make in UConn related.

    Do we need to switch to zone defense?

    Seems like it is easier to pick up for the less experienced players, helps to cut down on fouls, a little less running around so players can do 35+ minutes. I know Geno seems to hate Zone and loves his switching, but if we are down to six it is all about survival until we get some players...

    Vandy (coached by UConn Alum Shea Ralph) up over Florida at the half

    See how I got UConn in the title so it is not OT. Can they hang on for the second half. Would be another great win for Shea and Vandy.

    For predicting next game, do we know anything about LIV?

    I assume she was not sick or she would not have been sitting on the bench possibly infecting everyone else. And it was a total surprise to Coach CD apparently at the last minute. But Katie Lou was allowed to play with something against Maryland, who knows. Or did KLS hide it from everyone...

    rating UConn for the big dance

    Arizona just beat Oregon by 15. Granted there were a lot of problems for us when we played, but Oregon made us look bad. Arizona handled them. When I look at Arizona's lineup, I don't see a lot of names I remember as top HS recruits. For a number of teams, like DePaul and Creighton, they...

    Wooden list is updated

    20 names, none from UConn. Paige off because she hasn't played. Everyone else played themselves off. When was the last time we had no one on the list. That would seem to also say no first, second or third team AA. When did that last happen?

    CW, so what is the best we can hope for?

    What are NCAA and BE protocols? Do we wait 5 days, 10 days, from first positive test, from first negative test? Something else? Quarantine? Do we hope everyone else had Covid during the last shutdown? Kind of awful to be hoping people had Covid, especially our wonderful team. As was...

    What happens to our seniors after this year?

    Do you see any as first rounders in the WNBA? making a team roster? Do you see any as even third team All Americans so far? Do they go overseas to make money and work on their game. Come back to UConn with the Covid extra year. Go in the portal and try and show better somewhere else...

    when can we buy tickekts?

    I know they are selling season tickets. I went to order tickets for individual games, but it was not active. Anyone know when they will be available, or what the flex pack is. I think I got one years ago and you could pick 5 games.

    two things

    When will they post the places where the games are being played, XL or Gampel, so we can buy tickets for single games? We get no respect. Article every day this week in the Norwalk Hour and the Danbury New Times on the Mens BBall team, for the women, nothing.

    Fair is Fair, correct?

    We all know what happened at the end of the Baylor game, and the uproar that followed. So last night Williams get called for her 5th foul and at least Lobo called it out, said clearly no contact at all, and the "rule" for refs is if you can't see it you can't call it, don't call something that...

    Update on Muhl.

    Is she walking, no boot? Is she riding a bike, practicing, what????? Can she play. I am fearing if she could not play for 1 minute versus Baylor she can't be ready to play much on Friday, or maybe coach knew we had it in the bag, even with 20 seconds to go, and kept her out for safety's sake.

    Geno, Shea, Nika

    so, is Geno back yet? When will Shea return? has there been any sighting of Nika walking with or without boot?

    do we play at 3 or 6 on Sunday?

    wife wants to go out to dinner and movie that night.

    What is General Basketball all about

    When I click on the boneyard and women's basketball I see general basketball. I thought that was part of the boneyard, mainly about non UConn news. Buy when I happen look at the thread for SC and A and M, it looks like no Uconn fans are on it. I made a comment I will repeat here. Do I have...

    are points per shot important?

    Seems like they are. If you shoot 30% from 3 you make .9 point per shot. if you shoot 55% from 2 you make 1.1 points per shot. More points per shot seems like a good idea. So.... Christyn 27% from 3 is .81 points per shot. 58.7% from 2 is 1.17 points per shot...

    I hate to say it but,

    there is not another team from the Northeast in the top 25 other than UConn. Do we run the risk of the eastern regional going away? Maybe a Southeast, a Midwest, a West and a Southwest? Or do they keep the East as long as we are a top draw, then drop it? We used to have teams like...

    question for tournament time

    Looks like Paige is our main offensive threat, but she can't do it alone every night. other teams may double team her, go box and 1, etc. Who becomes our next scorer to take some pressure off of her. Next year it will be Azzi, but who is it now. They all seem to have off nights, last...

    ridiculous, 5 year too early question

    With Saylor playing some games, can she break the UConn record for most games played, most games won, etc. All depends on who goes WNBA when for us, Maybe Paige stays for a 5th year to play with Azzi. Yeah, I know, in my dreams. Also for NCAA records will depend on who stays for 5th...

    Random thoughts

    People are saying our offense is great, but it just doesn't look like the past when people never stopped moving. Katie Lou would run so much the defense would grab her shirt to slow her down. I remember watching a film and the commentator pointed out, watch the ball and how many times it hits...

    Free Throws

    Not to jinx her, and I hope I don't appear in a Dr. Pepper commercial soon, but Griffin has improved from 60% last year to over 80 so far. That is great. Liv has improved from around 55 to 59, better but lots more room to improve, especially as she takes takes a lot. As we have seen in...

    DePaul loses again today

    and they are supposed to be the best opponent we have in the big east. Did we join the league a year too late? So is our main opponent now? Ourselves? Don't be cute and say our second team. Marquette? This will not help our strength of schedule.

    Santa Clara county has put restrictions on games

    so Stanford has had to cancel several already, and the restrictions go at least through Dec. 19, so Tara may not pull that far ahead of Geno because of our cancelled games. Heck, he may even catch up if Santa Clara extends the rules.

    Did it confirm the positive Covid test?

    Baylor loses, but likely means nothing,

    they are still number one in the Baylor region.

    Bogus top 16

    They claim they rely on their RPI, but you look at it and a couple of non P5 teams are up high in the RPI, but they don't get the ranking they deserve. And the only reason they don't get even higher in the RPI is the P5 are afraid to schedule them. So they can't get top 25 or top 50 wins...

    FSU vs Louisville [merged thread]

    Only reason it is a tie is that Louisville hit 6 of 7 threes. They were badly out-rebounded. Hold your breath.

    Carla Berube's Princeton team and the RPI

    Is number 9 in the Women's Basketball RPI. That says they are the number 1 3 seed. Anyone think there is any chance the committee puts them anywhere near a 3 seed? More likely a 6? Then why even have the RPI? The RPI does give UConn a few decent, but not impactful, wins in conference with...

    thinking back to DePaul game.

    The first half was our best basketball of the year. Maybe the last 3 years. We beat a team now ranked near top 10 by a gazillion points. Then the second half, a complete reversal. They beat us by a gazillion minus about 5 and we just barely hung on for the win. What went so right in the...
