I couldn't agree with you more. Not enough credit is given to that senior class from 2022, especially Kaylah Pointer.......................who I think is the best point guard that has played at LSU since Temeka Johnson. But, for sure that team helped to "prime the pump" for what we're seeing now, in terms of LSU recruiting.
Since teams are allowed 2 non-player contact coaches next season, can these 2 offer advice on NIL issues?
I don't get posts like these. No one is saying LSU is going to breeze through the SEC. SEC is actually a bit tougher than most want to give credit for and its gotten stronger IMO from portal additions throughout the conference as a whole. LSU despite winning a national title is still in the process of rebuilding the program. They lacked overall talent and quality depth last season but now LSU is adding too much talent from adding just two transfers? Did anyone not watch LSU almost burn out midseason because they had no bench?
Mulkey built Baylor from the ground up in the 2000s. From what I can tell because it was before I was alive, the 80s were much different than the 2000s.
Kim made it clear after the national championship game that she’s not afraid of difficult players with attitude and in fact welcomes them
I like your optimistic attitude but there are not even a handful outside Storrs that share your belief.
That was more than 5 years ago lol. So you should understand what I mean. Which is why im surprised that a lot of Uconn and South Carolina fans are the ones saying “there’s only one basketball” when yall know first hand 1.) Injuries happen, 2.) freshman aren’t always ready year 1. I’ve been a UConn fan much longer than I’ve been following LSU womens basketball. So I understand teams with large amounts of talent. Which is why I think LSU will be fine because Kim Mulkey is used to teams like this. I just think how quickly she’s getting buy in from transfers and recruits is surprising a lot of people. Even with these transfers, UConn and South Carolina still has more 5 stars than LSU. And both have just as many chemistry concerns.
Wow! Talk about a stacked deck!
Great enthusiasm but...
so is ours!
TN is the odd man out in the SEC. Two superstar coaches are now the star attractions in the conference. TN has zero freshman or sophomores and now probably little chance at a top 2 finish in conference. They may even fall further down if Harper can't recruit big-time talent. The portal can only supply so much talent.
Some football players view a touchdown as being 6 points closer to winning a game, others view it as a chance to perform a celebratory antic they've been rehearsing for weeks. I'm more of the, "Act like you've been there before" mindset. Not saying there's anything wrong with the other way, but just not my choice. We can agree to disagree.
Coach Yo has over taken coach harper imo
It’s not about being selfish or not, at least to me. It’s about how many shots these players need to be effective. None of them are especially efficient, with Hailey Van Lith and Morrow being prolifically inefficient in fact. How do three high volume inefficient players play together? Do they become more efficient if they lower their volume? Maybe but also not s given. If you do have aspirations of big NIL deals or the WNBA how do you feel about those chances when you go from the top option to maybe 4th or 5th?
Never see the floor at UConn? She is the nations leading scorer. She starts at UConn upfront with Edwards. Many people would say she is better than Edwards (I think they are close, and most UConn fans are probably going nuts at the suggestion they are close).
It's more important to win, if you want to play at the next level you need to show you can play team ball.
Geno said after the first practice with Lou, he wondered who was coming off the bench.
