Hannah Hidalgo

Anyone doubting Hidalgo won’t be after that performance. No chance there are 5 players having a better season than she is so far.
Lest we forget, Hannah had 31 vs. South Carolina, so we certainly can dispense with the notion she might not show in the big games.
 
Clark, Bueckers, Brink for sure... Either Pilli or Watkins for the last spot.
I think it will come down to: Hidalgo, Clark, Brink, Lee, & Pilli in my opinion.
Maybe Cardoso gets in over Lee, I am torn between the two for the post player of the year.
 
When/if Miles comes back, ND would have best backcourt in the country, probably by far. And would be as good as any team except maybe SC

It’s going to be a major adjustment bringing her back though. Both her and Hidalgo are very ball dominant point guards so adjusting to sharing the rock more will likely have some growing pains. If they can figure it out thought they’ll be incredibly good. Especially with Koval coming in the frontcourt.
 
I wasn't planning on going to the ND game when they play in Durham in a few weeks, but I may put it on my calendar so I can see her in person. I'll still be rooting for Duke of course
Looking forward to seeing Kara’s defensive scheme that game.

Besides the 34 points, she also grabbed 10 rebounds and dispensed 6 assists -- twice as many as anyone else on the court.
Plus, she played all 40 minutes and had a plus/minus of 15. This Domer is beaming....:D

Hannah had zero steals tonight. No way she makes all American now

:p:D:oops:
 
No let down for Hannah in game after UConn. She flies to Atlanta with Irish to play Ga. Tech and
scores a freshman/collegiate career high of 35 points (on 15-25 shooting), plus 8 assists and 6 steals.
Next up: Sunday at home against Pittsburgh.

Wow! Hannah continues to impress. Ain't no let up in her game.

I live in Atlanta and almost went to the game. Gonna regret this one for awhile.

I just watched the highlights, didn't get to watch the game. One concern that I see online is that she could pass more. From watching the highlights so many of her baskets came from hustling. I think she had 4-5 breakaway layups from steals, and then another 4-5 baskets from getting in transition and beating the defense down the court. She reminded a lot of Miles with her passes to Watson, and her dribble generation and kick outs. She has one really nice stepback that probably could have been a pass, but she made it.

I thought this was a complete game for her. She passed well, and scored most of her points by just out hustling everyone. I listen to Haley Jones' podcast on YouTube (great listen). I hope she gets Hannah on her podcast, because Jones was on the commentary for parts of the game.

Overall, as a first year point guard, Hannah could look for the pass a bit more on occasion, which Niele Ivey -- btw -- has talked to her about (shot-pass selection). But last night won't be an example of that, for the most part: She had so many fast-break and/or points in the paint opportunities, she did the right thing. There was simply no back-side or rotational help from the Yellowjackets. As guest commentator Haley Jones pointed out, Hannah did the right thing taking it to the hoop until someone challenged her.

Often that was the last person, which is why center Kylee Watson came back from scoring obscurity to put in 19 points. :)
