Baylor - KY (merged)

[BRS24]

Samarie Walker with another lackluster performance. 1-3, 3 pts.

Watched her play in the last few games and really disappointed in effort, defense, and composure. I really think she would have reached her potential if she stayed, but IMHO, it was "too hard" at UConn, and you are either all in or you are not.

Of course, who knows -- she might be really really happy as a person. But that's not important....

Not necessarily. I think Baylor would have a very good chance in that game.

Notre Dame by 12-15. No question. They're just a better team. They pass better, shoot much better, rebound better and defend better, and they're playing at home.

For those who have criticized Sims shooting and (supposed lack of) passing:

10-19 from field, 6 asst, 3 stls, 1 TO thru 30 mins

She's had a lot of good games this year. Also had some horrible games this year. For some reason I Don't think she will duplicate today's shooting stats next game.

Samarie's college career ends with a whimper.

Does she have another year left? She sat out 2 semesters in 2 different seasons.

Kentucky is an average team if they don't get steals and score on the break. In the halfcourt offense, they are nowhere close to being an elite team.

Sims had a really nice game 11-23 for 25pts with 7 assist 1 TO and 3 rebounds and 3 steals. She took 34% of the teams shots and actually shot the exact same percentage from the floor that the rest of the team shot. But her actual scoring efficiency was only 1.09 below her season average and below the rest of the teams 1.34.

No.
Those count as 2 years if eligibility.

Speaking of home games in South Bend. Does "Touchdown Jesus" become "Three Point Jesus" for hoop season? Or is he strictly a one-sport ND fan?

Does she have another year left? She sat out 2 semesters in 2 different seasons.

No. She played the first semester of her freshman year, the second semester of her sophomore year and full seasons in her junior and senior years. The NCAA transfer rules say that if you have played any time during a season, regardless of how long, it counts as having played the entire season. She's done.

By transferring mid-season she lost playing time.
