“The best four in the history of college basketball”

[Zinethar]

I saw the discussion of the announcers after the game was over and realized that I must have tuned them out as I really could not recall anything except being frustrated that they had no idea that Nika had set a UConn record for assists. I listened for that. Nope never came until after the game I heard an aside to it perhaps from the sideline reporter. I was also now that I think about it frustrated by the constant mention of Clark in a game she was not even involved in. There was a lot of comparisons of Paige and Caitlin Yep they are both very good at what they do but what they do is different. I still remember enjoying watching the 2 of them win a gold a few years back.

We did play Iowa and Clark in Paige's freshman year I think.

And last season at a pre-season tournament in Portland. Nika drove Caitlin crazy

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 show for it.

Beth Mowins.....ugh. I cannot listen to her. Just horrid. Clueless 90% of the time.

I remember last year (maybe year before) after the tournaments, switch over to NCAA Softball to watch the UConn of Softball (Oklahoma.)

Imagine my dismay when one of the announcers was, yup, Beth Mowin. I literally almost hurled in my chair.....

ANyone worse then her? Maybe Deb Anotneli or that one announcer on ESPN that GUSHES BUCKETS whenever she talks about South Carolina. Forget her name.

Beth Mowins not only the worst announcer of WBB but also of ALL sportscast. Just can't stand her fake, artificial to dramatize the super high pitch voice.... ugh!!

Precisely. She must have left out the word Iowa. I'm betting that some sharp WCBB historian could come up with 100 better all-time senior foursomes (eliminates Stuelke by definition), men or women, and probably at least 10 from UConn alone.

Current UConn seniors (liberal interpretation of the word senior): Paige, Edwards, Nika and Audrey. I'd put them up against any 4 women who ever played at Iowa.

I doubt there are 100 better alltime senior foursomes because having exactly four seniors is somewhat uncommon. SCar last year had six seniors ( one redshirt transfer and one 5th year Covid player) . The core of Boston Cook Beal and Amihere was a 4 player recruiting class that graduated together. Excellent class but no where near the greatest. Iowa’s accomplishments don’t even match that group of four.
