If Geno got Van Lith, then we probably don't get Azzi Fudd in next years recruiting class.

I think VanLith's game resembles Azzi's quite a bit. Pretty efficient on the drive and midrange. Of course Azzi has her on the perimeter but maybe not as much as everyone thought She is alot of fun to watch. On the other hand, with DePaul defending in their helter skelter style, hard to get a real accurate sense.

Not necessarily. Was he trying for her?

ESPN seems intent on keeping Evans in the spotlight. As good as she is, Hailey Van Lith is going to be the star. I knew it when she and Bueckers started in the USA U-19's. They were HS juniors and started with Boston, Howard & Hilman-Baker and ahead of all the guards with a year of college experience.
And with a loss and disgrace facing Walz at the end of the Aussie game he entrusted it to the 2 HS guards and they delivered.
I can't wait till Louisville plays NCSt.

Louisville is good, DePaul has a long way to go.

Watching this game Louisville looks good.
Kinda feel sad for Nyah Green and Ramani Parker. Talked them into redshirting last season due to depth chart and this season they come back as red shirt freshman and are beat out by a true freshman guard and post. Yikes!!!

Yeah, DePaul looks like an overmatched and undersized bunch of chuckers. Louisville has more pieces than I thought. Smith was the #18 recruit in 2017 and looks very good. Hailey Van Lith is the real deal. We probably weren't going to get her once Paige verballed. We certainly weren't going to get her once Nika verballed. Hailey seems like a good kid. She's also Badass. I think Louisville was a better choice for her than Baylor would have been.

Baylor sure could use her shooting.

I hope Paige comes out of the blocks being Paige, already being in the spot light, she could press a little bit to keep up with Van Lith and Clark.Van Lith is for real. She's been good, and more importantly, CONSISTENTLY good. If Paige comes out of the blocks even close to that level, I'll be really happy.

If Bueckers was all about scoring you'd be right. But she isn't and you are wrong.

Jeff did a Geno and had all subs in the 4th. The subs did a UConn and got outscored in the 4th.

Balogun and Dixon have also taken on lesser roles, I thought Dixon would be a starter this season.

I was thinking the same thing as I was watching the game.Van Lith is for real. She's been good, and more importantly, CONSISTENTLY good. If Paige comes out of the blocks even close to that level, I'll be really happy.
But then it became a huge blowout with the Cardinals setting a team record for most points scored in a game (I believe, I wasn't giving the game my total attention in the 4th quarter). Final - 116-75.

As a Louisville fan I of course are very happy with what I saw tonight.
I was most impressed by the 11 blocked shots and 26 assists. Hailey Van Lith is the real deal, obviously. Cochran could be the second coming of Myisha Hines-Allen. And Walz wasn't blowing smoke last season when he said that many days in practice Kianna Smith was the best player on the floor.
I do feel sorry for Nyah Green and Ramani Parker. After redshirting last year they are going to be relegated to mopup minutes, at least right now. And Balogun and Dixon are going to be fighting for playing time against good teams. Louisville will have a chance to beat teams with their depth.
How about a pickup game at Storrs tomorrow morning?
