#9 Baylor in a dog fight with #18 Oklahoma

I hope she uses that press conference as a teachable moment for herself. She just made herself look really bad IMO. She only took some accountability after bitching about everything else, and even then it didn't feel sincere. Others have mentioned this but I'm wondering if she's finally feeling the pressure...even though I'm not sure she knows how to handle it.

I am sure there is a lot of pressure as Baylor has won the Big 12 the last 11 years. Nicki comes in and they are not only in danger of not winning the conference, they may not even finish top 3 in their own conference. They could also lose out on a potential chance to host the 1st and 2nd round if they aren't a 4 seed. That and having a much more difficult matchup in the tournament. The expectations were pretty high for that job considering what Baylor has done over the years. Time will tell but she seems to be really feeling the pressure based off last nights press conference and post game handshake (she literally just barely touched the OU coaches hands and kept walking)

It's kind of her fault in that she left.

And I believe that the rematch, changing home team, is scheduled for Sunday, also on ESPN2. (It won't interfere with watching our game.)So TX vs Baylor tonight. ESPN2 8PM. Normally no rooting interest but pulling hard for TX. Better chance of Nikki blowing up
and Baylor responds with a statement win vs Texas, they play again on Sunday and I expect Baylor to lose.
Either way if people think Baylor is going to dramatically all out of seedings for playing 3 games vs top 15 teams they are mistaken.

Hello to the Boneyard. It's been a while since I posted (I retired from the Baylor faculty a year ago and took a self-imposed hiatus from most sports-related posting).
BU/Niki Collen traveled to Austin this afternoon and won the second home and home. 2-0 sweep of UT for Bears/Collen in this season of starting over. Fairly well played. Just the opposite of our 2 games vs. Oklahoma.
Jekyl and Hyde team this year--going only as far as Nalyssa Smith can take us.
Our roster is so patched together. 8 players on the roster. Only 2 bona fide BIGs--and that's counting on Smith to do most of the heavy-duty work in the lane.
Egbo simply refuses to grow up mentally enough that she can be trusted on to stay on the court and out of foul trouble. Been that way for her entire career.
Team of tired legs. And KState coming to town on Wednesday.
Best wishes for getting all your guys healthy. Congrats on winning your longtime matchup with Tennessee.
yea I jumped the gun definitely thought it would be a split lol, congrats this was a huge win. I feel for the hc she definitely getting a lot of scrutiny, not easy to replace a legend as Tenn is figuring that out.
