I hope ABC doesn't flip coverage around to other games. Show us the whole game
no matter the score. "us" meaning not just viewers in Ct. but close by...including but not limited
to the Adirondacks.

I just found out the other day on the general board that Aston was back coaching. She's one I've always felt hot and cold about; I hope she's happy where she is.

I watched UTSA yesterday upset the number one seed Rice. Rice had lost only one game in conference. Both teams looked weak offensively and not as good as some BE teams. What school did Aston used to coach? I remember seeing her.

We saw UTSA play USF back in January. USF won 70 - 53. DIdn't know Aston was the coach.

They are an average/middle of the road team for the American. Not a disciplined team on offense. A lot of one on one stuff, little movement. They did a lot of clutch and grab against USF.

UConn's defensive pressure will crush the Roadrunners.

They don't do "whip-around" coverage anymore. Especially since ESPN got the WBB tourney. They have ABC. ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, FX channels they can put games on. Plus ESPN+ streaming. They show all the games now.

Two things in the stats look like disasters for them. They don't shoot well against average competition, then face us, and they are similarly weak on committing turnovers and now face our defense that creates a ton of them.

They appear to be a pretty good defensive and rebounding team, but on paper their offense will have trouble getting shots at all because of turnovers, and a very low percentage on the shots they do get, because they are weak shooters and our defense is one of the best. The over and under on how many points they get might be among the lowest for any opponent we played this year.

She was head coach for a couple of schools. U of Texas for a time. I want to say that was a shaky gig, but I've erased it.

I thought Karen Aston had a gap in service after she was no longer the coach at Texas but the gap was a little shorter than I had remembered. Her coaching stint at Texas ended in 2020, I don't see the date but I presume about March. She was named the head coach of UTSA the following March.
