This is beautiful; I’m touched by it and grateful to see it. It seems too personal to have been shared with the world, though. I sure they both agreed to it, but it’s still very intimate to just put out there.

Going to miss her so much.

All the women who play at UCONN wiggle their way into my heart. Wishing her nothing but the best.

I see this as more ‘ coach resigning and blaming NIL’.

I don’t know about the Olympics, but she was great on SNL.

This is true, but there is another truth. So many of the newly minted social media ‘fans’ are the same people who commented that ‘no one cares’ or worse when there was big news in women’s sports. It smacks of hypocrisy that they are suddenly using the very thing they disdained to now drive...

I’ll be betting on Notre Dame for Iriafen.

It would seem as though OSU has to be praying that someone hires Rueck away from them. He’s too expensive by WCC standards and if they fire him without cause, they owe him roughly $6MM. While there will be players available in the portal, it seems unlikely that Rueck will be there all that...

I think that they drew random names out of a hat.

Take a look at @Dillon77 comments above. I’d add that non-conference commitments are sometimes made years ahead, so it might not be possible in the short run to get games that will make a great schedule. For kids that have only two or three years to play, I can totally understand how they...

Azzi spoke to the general assembly on Feb 20, 2024. This is not recent.

The quote is taken out of context. The full quote is below. Auriemma was asked about high level players leaving and the reply was focused on those players. It was not in reference to the entire team. “There aren’t a whole lot of high-level players coming to play at Connecticut leaving for...

Help! We’ve been kidnapped by Quinnipiac. (Look carefully at the photo.)

Super sad about this news. One of my all time favorite plays was the pass Amari made from her bum to Ines for a layup.

I agree with those saying that this hire came with tremendous risk. However, UConn once hired a coach with zero head coaching experience and we know how that turned out. My concern is that the Vols won’t have the patience to see this through. She might need a couple of years and the fans want...

I posted on this earlier somewhere else, but stopping the blatant two handed shoves and other extra actions would be a start. Call them for what they are - flagrant fouls. Get two in a game…mandatory one game suspension. That would end them quickly.

This is my favorite impressionist act.

Lies, damned lies and statistics: Stewart had a 53% career shooting percentage and Clark 46.3%. Clark’s 3 point percentage is better and she took a lot more shots. Kelsey Plum made 38.2% of her threes and at least mathematically was a better 3 point shooter than Clark, but took less of them...

It’s a big gamble but it has a lot of upside, especially if UT is trying to keep the cost down or they got turned down by other candidates. Oklahoma hired Sherry Coale from Norman High School and that was pretty successful for a while. This a better than getting an unproven assistant because...

I’m not sure why people assume that the coaches didn’t know her decision a couple of weeks ago. She could have told them and then just waited to announce.

Maybe but I would not want my daughter to go there.

I elected to keep my Albany tickets and attended the games. The Iowa - LSU game was one of the more fun and memorable games I’ve ever attended.

LSU ran out of the arena for the National Anthem…have the done that all year?

The only way SC loses is if Cardoso and Watkins both have the worst games of their lives at the same time. Or if NC State manages to shoot 90% from the floor. Even then SC will still probably win.

Was at the game. Thought that it was closer than it needed to be because Dawn was holding out Kamilla. Wasn’t really going for the blowout.

Baylor Baylor with Griner won the 2012 National Championship. She was tournament MOP. She was also in the final four as a freshman in 2010.

If you see this on a t-shirt, it will be me…

I went back and watched the replay, because I simply couldn’t believe that Mowins could say anything quite so stupid. I’m sad to say that she really did say it. If they were the best four in history of college basketball, you would think they would have at least one national championship to...

There are three things that I find intolerable in the way games are called. 1. Inconsistency- you never know what you are going to get day to day and sometimes within a game. 2. Each league seems to have its own unwritten rules. A foul in one league is BAU in another. 3. Some players are...

I just appreciate this win so much more than I did the easier wins in years past. I haven’t had this much fun screaming at the TV in a long time.

KK for the dagger.

Connecticut 88 - Jackson State 54

Love the video, but I still sad.

I’ve been thinking about this a bit… In today’s game, does it still make sense to have automatic qualifiers? On the upside, it gives every team at least some hope that they could make the tournament just by winning their league tournament. On the downside, it makes most games in the early...

For me, the biggest improvement would be to treat all players the same. Stop “protecting” star players.
