Interesting article about USF's injury and transfer woes. They desperately need to get Pinzan, the point guard, healthy and playing.

a really sad situation that can happen to any team at any time thus more quality and quantity players needed................luck plays such a big part in a team's success or failure....................

If you want to look like a giant killer, Texas is the team to play.

 

[LoTrader]

Very impressed with Evina's play this year. In my view, she is already better than Jackie Nared.

She had a good week, carrying her team against Oklahoma State, and co-carrying them along with Meme Jackson vs. Texas.

I'll withhold any comparison to Nared or others until I see them actually play a good team.

and now for something entirely different:

Oregon's (correction - former) Director of Creativity and Video? (Side note: "Director of Creativity" That's what they're calling it? )

(I assume you meant younger sister Jaime, but I'm just monkeying around with ya)

Jaime?

She might be already better than Jackie Another Terp transfer

I looked it up.... Jackie is now at Washington State as an asst coach

Yeah, I just noticed my mistake...guess she got a job with a real job title.

Jackie Nared - Women's Basketball Coach - Washington State University Athletics

 

[stwainfan]

Since Westbrook isn't even halfway. Through her college career at this point. I think it's too early for comparison. I will say her and Nared are different type players.

Dan Olson from ESPN Hoopgurlz breaks down SC’s historic recruiting class. Says it’s better than Baylor’s 2018 group.

‘It’s ridiculous’: USC’s 2019 class is one of the best ever, recruiting expert says

Dan Olson from ESPN Hoopgurlz breaks down SC’s historic recruiting class. Says it’s better than Baylor’s 2018 group.

‘It’s ridiculous’: USC’s 2019 class is one of the best ever, recruiting expert says

From the article regarding Dan Olson's comments:
In fact, Olson said only one class in the past decade compares to South Carolina’s incoming group — the legendary 2012 UConn group, which featured Breanna Stewart, Moriah Jefferson and Morgan Tuck, ranked No. 1, 2 and 6, respectively.

If you go back a little more than a decade and depending on what rankings service you use, you would also find Tennessee's 2004 recruiting class (with Blue Star Basketball's rankings):

1. Candace Parker 6-3 Naperville Central IL -- TENNESSEE
2. Sa'de Wiley-Gatewood 5-9 Lynwood CA -- TENNESSEE
4. Alexis Hornbuckle 5-11 Charleston South WV -- TENNESSEE
5. Alexandria Fuller 6-3 Shelbyville Central TN -- TENNESSEE
16. Nkolika Anosike 6-4 Staten Island St. Peters NY -- TENNESSEE

All five were named McDonald's All-Americans.

 

[Orangutan]

So it's settled, South Carolina are winning 4 National Championships.

Coaching wins championship, recruiting just gives you a better chance to get there. Future success based on WBB recruiting is especially hard to predict because a lot of lower ranked kids do not see intensive training and coaching until they get to college and maybe not even then unless they get the right coach.

Tennessee's 2008 class is comparable based on recruit ranking:
3. Glory Johnson
4. Amber Gray
8. Shekinna Stricklen
15. Alicia Manning
20. Alyssa Brewer

Going further back, other standout loaded classes include:
2002 UCONN-Strother, Wolff, Goring, Crockett and Turnee
1999 Tennessee-Morris, Lawson, Jackson, McDivitt
1998 UCONN-Bird, Cash, Jones, Williams, Walters

SC will be loaded. How Dawn does with this standout class will be telling.

Our Coach has a championship so she knows what it takes to get these kids there and also help them realize their potential not only on the court but off it as well...

Aw, the joke's not funny if you explain it.

So this falling into the proverbial toilet is just part of the plan then ...?

What sport?

Will there be any televising of the Baylor, Stanford game this Saturday? It's not on ESPN.

PAC 12 Network I believe.

 

[LoTrader]

Confirmed, PAC-12 is where it will be televised, and, possibly streamed at PAC-12.com.

 

[donalddoowop]

Thank you Shmermerer and LOTRADER. My provider just lost the PAC-12 Network.

I think you mean Jaime Nared, who was the #6 HG rated recruit in 2014. Evina was #2 in 2017.

I think you need to give Evina another year to digress to the level poor Jaime sunk to under Holly's tutelage (remember, she played four years), you can't burn down Rome in a day, it takes years...as we are watching before our very eyes...

 

[Centerstream]

If you go to the Schedule on the uconnhuskies website, there is a Watch link for the Cal game. Once you select this link, there are links for tv, PC and phone viewing. When I selected the phone link, the Google Play app opens to download the PAC-12 Network app.
My question is this: do I need to already have access to the PAC-12 Network (which I do not because I have DirecTV) in order to use this app on my Android phone?

 

[nwhoopfan]

I thought this was a good human interest story.

really annoying that some of the best women's games don't make national tv while so many of the worst men's games do
