I'm willing to wait and see what he does to right the ship. I think Walz is a good coach and will figure something out.And this was the team that EVERYONE had above Duke in the ACC and national polls
There are very few if any people who think Jeff W. Is not one of the very best coaches in WBB. Can anyone who actually saw the games explain what is going on with that team?
Watched the games via livestream on youtube (Gulf Coast Showcase). Although this team has a TON of talent and speed, it will be an uphill battle this season with such a young squad. The most glaring problem is one that we're currently seeing with the Tenn team: lack of flow on the offensive end. This stems from players not knowing where they're supposed to be, and not knowing what they want to do with the ball.
Another thing they're lacking is strong interior play. Erin DeGrate is a big body inside, but she's still struggling with positioning and putting the ball up confidently. I strongly believe she'll get better with more minutes and individual conditioning. She's going to be great. Sam Feuhring (McDondald's AA) has shown some flashes of greatness, with the ability to stretch the defence (hit a three last game) and post up down-low.
Myesha Hines-Allen and M. Moore played much better vs Dayton and their leadership is critical for the success of this team. Both still need to work on being consistent on the defensive end. Unfortunately, the Cards' leading scorer (B. Jackson) didn't have a good weekend, but look for her to be a force to be reckoned with this season. She is truly something special - on both ends of the court!!
Obviously their #1 Freshman has been highly missed. Overheard that she had reoccurring flareups from the groin injury in the summer. Don't think Walz wanted to risk anything and throw her in these past few games.
Sorry to hear that Durr is going to have to redshirt...............She is a great talent. And I am sure Walz could use her. But nothing is more important than the health of the player and that comes first.Brihanna Jackson was hurt and unable to play effectively during this tournament.
Asia Durr, our superstar freshman, is being reshirted for the season. Her groin injury did not heal in time to allow her to play basketball this season.
It's going to be a long season and definitely a rebuilding year. Next year Louisville should be back on the scene again.
If you are keeping tabs I had the Cards top 5 Nationally, Durr being Freshmen of the year, and snagging Cox in recruiting. Really sorry to hear about Durr missing the whole year.And this was the team that EVERYONE had above Duke in the ACC and national polls
If you are keeping tabs I had the Cards top 5 Nationally,

I reported on what Coach Walz stated after the Dayton game, the third game in a row she had not played. He made it pretty clear that night red shirt was their intentions. Thank heavens he was wrong.I agree.
It was..
