[Mulder]

Sic em VS Hook em Horns.

My the best team win.

 

[triaddukefan]

Any reason why they are having this game on a Friday night?

 

[Mulder]

It's a defensive struggle in Texas.
11-11 after the 1st quarter.

 

[Blueballer]

This game is so physical it's crazy. Hope nobody gets hurt.

That's when Fox Sports wanted to have it I guess.

 

[Mulder]

The Defending National Champions were 5 points better than the Lady Longhorns in the 2nd frame.
Egbo is the leading scorer for Baylor with nine.

 

[DefenseBB]

The problem Is that is about as well as Texas could play and they are still down 5. The Longhorns remind of the LV offense as in what offense? It’s so bad, it’s offensive...

 

[PoppaBear]

It's just fun to watch Cox and Holmes battle for one last year

 

[eebmg]

Baylor now mauling TX 38-26. TX incompetence clearer by the minute.

 

[Mulder]

Lady Bears are threatening to de-horns The Longhorns in the 3rd.
Coach Karen . . T.O. .

 

[Bear11]

Egbo has really come into her own recently. She is winning the battle with Collier on both ends.

 

[Mulder]

Didi Richards is perfect from the floor. 5-5, 2-2, 7 boards, 6 assists, for 12 points.

 

[Mulder]

Baylor D'd up the Longhorns to the tune of FIVE points in the 3rd stanza.
Things look grim for the Home Team.

 

[Alydar]

Texas can't hit 3's or layups. Not sure how much that's Baylor's defense but it's mostly just Texas' poor shooting. Holmes is such a wasted talent. Somebody convinced her that she was better than she was. With her size and quickness she must have dominated in HS and it looks like she never advanced from that level.

 

[Bear11]

I think what Aston has done with Joyner Holmes may be the greatest case of coaching malpractice I've ever seen.

 

[DefenseBB]

Texas is just painful to watch some err most times...

It's the coaching she received. I dont know how Aston gets good players. She has a terrible track record of developing players for the WNBA. Atkins had a very good rookie year, and she played in a way Karen could never imagine. Mike T is very good at finding those diamonds in the rough. Perhaps he might want the challenge of drafting Joyner and turning her into a star. The potential is there, but she should have been a star by now.

 

[Mulder]

Stick a Fork in The Texas Lady Horns . . . They are DONE!!

Stick a Fork in The Texas Lady Horns . . . They are DONE!!

You waited this long? I think that was a foregone conclusion shortly after halftime.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Collier and Holmes are 2-23 from the field and 0-4 from the line.

She hasnt the past couple years (2019 and 2020). And she lost both top 5 recruits from 2017 and Sedona Prince in 2018. I think Collier likely bolts if she wants to compete for a title after this year. All of their good players graduate. Amazing how much talent they have and how bad they look.

Lauren Cox effect. Amazing how much she impacts the game defensively. Never would've guessed she'd become this much better than Holmes after their freshman season when Holmes was a star and Cox was underwhelming.

I'm partial toward burnt orange. I gave them the benefit of the doubt.

 

[bballnut90]

Richard's is quietly so dang good. Their best passer/decision maker, takes smart shots, hits them, and defends the crap out of you. Has a pretty looking shot too. If she develops a consistent jumpshot she could be a really really good pro IMO. Sort of like a taller and longer Alysha Clark.
