Message: [QUOTE="DefenseBB, post: 2951199, member: 7492"] Maybe I am a cynic, but other than her magical run in 2013 at 32-4 when they made the Final Four (with Joanne Boyle's recruits and players), Lindsay is underwhelming as a coach. Her overall record is 168-76, and 79-48 in conference. However the last 3 years have been 56-42 overall, 21-33 in PAC-12 games. That's not an elite coach. Last year, in non-conference games, she started 9-2 with their only losses to UConn and Missouri (and also the only real teams on their schedule). She ended 12-9 for overall 21-11. Meh. To me this is not a top 25 team and seems to by riding the strength of OTHER PAC-12 teams, not really on their own merits. Oregon, Oregon State, Stanford and even Arizona St all seem very legit to me. USC and Utah need show me something when they play good teams as their schedules have been pretty light on strength. After that, maybe Cal can ride Anigwe to a top 5 PAC-12 finish. The UConn game will not be close. [/QUOTE]
