Pretty sure you could put together a top-15 team from the players who entered the portal today alone.

She would start immediately at Baylor. Just down the road from home. I think we recruited her out of high school but she didn't care for our style at the time.

Gotta be following Coach Messer to UCF right?

This just highlights the silliness of this "way-too-early" exercise. Baylor is obviously going to have multiple transfers, and depending on the quality of those we could be anywhere from top-10 to not even ranked. I agree the current roster may not merit the top-25, but we know this will not be...

This is the one I've been waiting for.

When the article was initially published, it included Darianna Littlepage-Buggs as a Baylor signee. This has not been officially confirmed, so it appears that they removed her name without changing the rankings. I do expect her to sign at Baylor, but I'm not sure what the holdup is. Either she...

Looks like a commitment on the way. The location stamp would point to Ysabella Fontleroy.

Looks like Smith, Egbo, and Alabama transfer Jordan Lewis plan to stick around. A good foundation for year one. Could look a lot different in year 2. Really hope she can keep Maryam Dauda on board.

I don't follow the WNBA even a little, anyone have some background on Collen?

Expect movement on this soon. If I had to guess I’d say it’s Megan Duffy but that ain’t worth much.

I'll just say that most of the people on the Baylor board talking about Molly Miller are interested in her for reasons outside her coaching ability. She seems like a fine coach, but would need a couple more years of success before being considered for a job of this caliber.

This is not accurate. I have seen Rhoades at many women's games, along with our university president (a former women's basketball player at Ok State). There was no lack of support from the administration, which is why Kim was the 2nd highest paid coach in the country, with an extravagant budget...

On previous coaching searches, Baylor AD Mack Rhoades has played it extremely close to the vest, with basically no leaks of any kind about who he has interviewed or offered a job to. It has basically been confirmed that Sytia Messer will be interviewed, but other than that it is conjecture about...

I guess someone knew what they were talking about. By my count Baylor now has 4 transfer guards, plus Sarah Andrews. Crazy how Kim went from almost never taking transfers to taking only transfers.

Moon has not indicated either way, other than not entering the draft. I also don't think we are on the market for a PG, given that Kim brought in Carr midseason and Andrews played pretty well down the stretch. If Baylor looks to the portal, I would expect it to be for a wing/longer guard type to...

I have a hunch that this means that Moon (or maybe Didi) is returning. I think Oliver may have been in line for decent minutes at an off guard position, but that would evaporate if the seniors returned. Wishful thinking perhaps, but Baylor should still be solid at guard next year.

This seems relevant.

Can confirm

The listed refs were Darren Krzesnik, Infini Robinson, and Felicia Grinter. Grinter has done a Final Four, and Robinson called a regional final in 2019. This wasn't B-team refs, it was an indictment of the women's basketball officiating in general.

This is the relevant portion of the rule book. According to parts 7 and 8, it all depends on exactly where on the floor the player was when she established control, in this case by starting a dribble.

The question is not whether Baylor is a good as last year. The question is whether Baylor can beat UConn this year. Everything I have seen would imply the answer is yes. That is not to say that Baylor will beat Connecticut, just that they are evenly matched enough that the game could go either...

My take here will be controversial (at least among Baylor fans), but I'm not sure Baylor wouldn't be better off with new blood among the guards. I think the current group has pretty much reached their ceiling in production. As discussed frequently, Didi is not a natural PG. She is passable, but...

For the millionth time, Texas is not re-opened. The governor lifted the government mask mandate. Businesses still enforce their own mandates and arena capacity will still be limited. In the week since the official mandate has been lifted, I have not been to a single business that does not have a...

I had her as the MVP. 41 rebounds and 14 blocks in 3 games without missing a minute for foul trouble. Anchored the whole defense.

While Baylor was dribbling the clock out, Mike Carey had his team foul just so he could call timeout and yell at the refs. I don’t blame him, the officiating was that bad. Kim called a similar timeout in the first quarter.

I must object to them releasing an All-American list before the season is even finished. Baylor has a top-25 matchup tonight and a whole conference tournament this week. I'll reserve my commentary to the Big 12 picks. From what I saw, Mack and Smith both had much better seasons than Collier...

Crazy half. Baylor opens 16-2, then allows OSU to take the lead after a 19-2 run, then Baylor responds with 17 unanswered point to lead 35-21 at halftime.

Yes the Pac-12 is tough, but we really have no idea how tough. As far as I can tell no one in the entire conference played a P5 opponent in non-conference. That means the committee is just relying on preseason rankings and the eye test to rank the teams in the absence of any real data. You can...

Just as a general question, how do you fairly rank the Pac-12 teams when none of them played a real non-conference schedule? I don't think the NET and the other ranking systems can really apply to a conference that only played amongst themselves.

Trinity is a solid player who is consistent on both ends of the floor. She will never make a spectacular play, but rarely makes a major mistake. The problem is that with her and Didi in the same lineup, there is minimal threat from deep. I think Trinity and her mid-range game would be much more...

I think she picked it up from Scott Drew and the Baylor men's team. He has been taking transfers for years, and currently has a top-2 team with 3 transfers starting.

Kim running a 5 guard lineup. I’ve seen it all now.

Kim switched to a zone early in the 3rd quarter. Almost unheard of. Maybe next she'll sit down on the bench and say some nice things about Karen Aston.

The backups have played better than the starters. The defense was lazy in the first quarter and way too many turnovers, mostly from sloppiness.

Absolutely right on Smith and Egbo. Nalyssa is at her best off the bounce, in transition and off offensive rebounds. Queen has legit low post moves, especially against undersized or slow defenders. Too often they seem to do it backwards, with Queen in the high post and Nalyssa trying to post up...
