Oklahoma, Texas & the SEC

One of the LSU assistants was hinting that we'll have some fun matchups in the Bahamas tournament. UConn is also in that tourney so there's a chance we might get to see LSU/UConn.

Same

Mulkey is a great coach, she still has a lot of talent despite losing Reese, she really should schedule significantly better than she does. To me she can still schedule all rent of a wins with MUCH better quality but it never happens. Her LSU scheduling has been something else compared to when she was at Baylor. Her Baylor schedules weren't overwhelming but you still saw some ranked teams in the OOC schedule sprinkled in and at least had resume potential building quality opponents on the OOC schedule.

Who is all supposed to be in that Bahamas tournament? I know UCONN is

Did you see Vic on SEC Now last night? They had a couple segments on the schedule release, including one with him. He was excellent, but he always is, I think.

I think they did it for the TV numbers -- assuming it is an early afternoon game. If I remember correctly, something like this happened in the past and had good TV ratings due to so many people keeping their TV on ESPN on Superbowl Sunday.

This is the first time the Super Bowl will ever be televised by ESPN. It's always been alternating between ABC, NBC, CBS, and FOX. I think ESPN will spend all day with its pre-game Super Bowl analysis and shows. So, most likely this game will be on ESPN2, ESPNU, or SECN. Perhaps this game will actually be on ABC.

I guess my perspective is from someone who wants to attend the game in person, but still have my normal all afternoon/evening Super Bowl party get-together. If this game was in SC instead of at Texas, I'd be more on board with it . . . :p

I completely understand! I would be equally frustrated since this will probably be the most anticipated matchup in the SEC this season.

My response was more or less offering a hypothetical justification for their decision and nothing else.

This kinda got me hyped. Im interested in this team. They sortve become underrated. When you think about the talent of Jewel Spear, whitehorn, Coop, Latham, and Hollingshead. Spencer, Wells, Pucket. They have a solid roster. Its just they need a couple of those players to make a learning from really solid rotation players to like all conference team members imo.

This is Year One and anything can happen. If the players buy in and put in the work over the summer and during preseason workouts, the Lady Vols could be a problem. I love Pucket and her game and I am loving the new coach and her energy. I hope the Lady Vol fan base keep a level head on their expectations on their new coach.

I wonder how the LSU players privately feel about the crappy out of conference schedule Mulkey sets up!

Rori Harmon gets her medical redshirt!

Happy for Harmon and would love to see her stick around a 5th year. Only caveat is if she stays, I wonder how it could affect their recruitment of Chavez who will be a freshman next year.

The early signing period for class of 2025 is in November. So, unless Chavez waits to sign until the Spring, there will still be a lot of unknowns regarding Harmon's potential fifth season at Texas.

I’m sure disappointed but i refuse to believe none of them don’t what they are getting themselves into or at least I hope they would but Kims scheduling has always been bad.

I know Kim scheduled not the best at Baylor but it was still night and day compared to her LSU schedules.

I believe Kim will field really good teams regardless of who they schedule but I cannot imagine being a fan and having to wait two months for a quality game in conference play most years. Matching them up with Stanford in the ACC/SEC challenge never made much sense to me tbh
 
Happy for her!

Super happy if it helps LSU land Chavez.

After all the years of player interviews, I've heard, I think many players are ill informed about the programs they're considering.
 
Texas football team is a top 5 team. I think the WBB team is as well.
 
Should LSU be favored to win the SEC regular season because SCar and Texas play twice?

LSU has road games at Texas and South Carolina. So, I don't think so.

Plus they aren’t even better than OU

Mulkey lost Reese this offseason and did nothing to replace her. No HS prospect, no post transfer. Not very smart IMO
