Well, we got through what was always going to be one of our toughest games of the SEC slate. Now onto Georgia.

I know it’s just basketball, but I’m emotional realizing Sunday is Senior Day. I moved to a new city in the fall of 2019 and followed this class from the beginning of the season on. It’s wild to think of the pandemic and all the other major events that have happened since.
Somehow it feels like forever ago and yesterday at once. We’ve watched Aliyah, Zia, and crew grow up.

I’m gonna miss these kids so much.

You got that right. It’s like Brea, Zia and Aliyah came in connected from day 1.

A bit of South Carolina politics for those originating from the Palmetto State. . Setting in the finance committee at the State House-a State Senator from Georgetown has proposed that we we tax anybody moving to South Carolina from out of state $250.00 Drives License Fee and a $250.00 Vehicle registration Fee. His reason, South Carolina can not support current infrastructure needs with a the influx of new residents moving in state. [480k over the last decade ]. South Carolina corporate Tax Rate 5%. Number of fortune 500 companies located in South Carolina Zero as of 2020. State just reported that they over estimated 3.4B in revenue on their books.

Likely weren’t going to win anyway. Seems like this is Camden and Joyce Edwards’ year. Regardless, sad Lay not getting to close out her HS career on the court, and the opportunity to pull an upset. Will miss her at McD’s.

They would not meet again in the state championship anyway bc Keenan moved down to 2A this year and Camden is 3A

Forgot about that.

Feels like Kierra has turned the corner and things have come together. She’s been playing very well since UConn. She could be an xfactor come postseason.

 

[TC22]

It seems to me like we have a different player step up every game. IDC which one it is as long as it’s someone.

Our senior 2019 recruiting class is 121 wins and 8 losses:

One: Who knows what coulda been year.
One FF year
One National championship year
One TBD year.

Best class in school history and among the top five all schools all time.

Thank You Kierra, but I would love to see Olivia get the “honorary “ 1 minute starting spot.

These freshies already got me all teary eyed. Each just dropped a thank you message on all of the South Carolina WBB social media sites. I was holding it together until Zia's and then the waterworks just started flowing.

I literally was crying so hard by the end of watching all of them I was doing the "can't catch my breath" kind of crying with snot running out my nose. (TMI? lol) IDK how to even begin thinking about dealing with tomorrow.

ETA: We need a "sad" emoji. Don't like using the frown bc it says "dislike."

Dawn doesn’t do honorary. You know she’s not changing anything tomorrow. Once the game starts she’ll want it to be all about the game. Now she may let Liv play more than normal if she has that opportunity but I’d bet my house she won’t start. (Not really). This will be a tough game. There’s a lot on the line here.

Yes, Zia completely took me out. They were all tear jerkers but Zia - whew.

From GamecocksOnline:

The Gamecocks’ 2019 signing class – “The Freshies” – have won 93.8 percent of its college games (121-8), including a 42-6 mark against ranked teams (.875). The group has been ranked #1 in the AP Poll in for 66.7 percent of their careers (48 of 72 polls) and never been outside the top 10. They have three SEC regular-season titles, two SEC Tournament crowns and have played in the Final Four in every NCAA Tournament of their careers, claiming the title in 2022.

Not too shabby…

Very impressive, especially in this era of increased competition across the board.

Boston, Cooke and Beal….122-8 so far in their career, what a class that was.

Moved back to SC after retiring from the military I have to pay over a grand to switch my 2 cars over to SC.

Looks like we got back the one AP vote that rebelled in favor of Indiana last week,

Guys, that was a tempest in a teacup

Hopefully this idiotic proposal never makes it out of committee to a full vote. It is something you should check to see if the full body passes. ...but their is a US Law called "bill of attainder" that this proposal would seemingly violate.
