Muffet McGraw's press conference regarding Britney Griner
"She is like a guy, playing with women"

Oh Muffet....wrong choice of worlds

LOL

If Geno said that then it would become a big deal lol

Incredibly overrated, on the court and elsewhere.
I question anyone who doesn't think she's hot. Not only is she shockingly attractive but she is also the best pg in the country. sort of like Pam webber with darker skin and a better jump shot

I'll take Odessey Sims over her for the game itself, in the sack yeah I'm diggin Skylar. But don't you think she would complain about everything? She's a whiner, which could be good too.............lol

Forget being taller and more athletic than anyone on the court - she's really, really good.

Her post-moves and defense are just terrific.

She has like 25 and 12 right now.

In a hoops side her transformation to real good player is quite amazing. Yeah I know a guy (man I hate when people say these things but who cares, he's out) who could learn a few things from her about post moves!!!:)

In return she gets to have a career playing a game.

Not a terrible trade-off.

Same could be said about men taller than 6'10". Without basketball they would be considered a not so complimentary description.

I ask this not to create controversy, but because I truly don't know. Has anyone ever determined, or attempted to determine whether she has male hormones or not? I seem to remember a female track champion from a few years ago being subjected to that sort of scrutiny and it led to quite a stir.

Geno coached her last summer, huge improvement from last year.

Anyone who doesn't think she's hot just needs to do a Google search of images of her and check out the non-basketball shots. The basketball uniform doesn't properly display her assets. She's by far the hottest hoops player out there. I'd post one here but I'm not on a computer at the moment.

I haven't seen any non-basketball ones, I did see one from the final 4 dinner and Bria Hartley actually looked better than her. And Diggins would complain about everything you did. I have rarely seen her smile.

Um, no way. Check out the pics of Lauren Jackson for one, and there's a lot more.

There's somebody for everybody. I'm sure she'll find the right man or woman or cyborg or body pillow or whatever she's into.

I haven't watched her play a lot but it's clear she's really unlike any woman who's ever played the game before. She's very fluid for a person of that size.

McGraw probably should have been sensitive to the issue and not used that language, but frankly, she's hardly the first person to ever say that sort of thing as a compliment. I remember the first WCBB game I ever watched from start to finish: Sheryl Swoops led Texas Tech to a title. And all I could think was: Wow, she looks like a dude playing with girls. Her athleticism and quickness was just off the charts compared to everyone else on the floor. I was somewhat mesmerized; that's the reason I watched a WCBB game all the way through. To this day, it's probably the only WCBB game not involving UConn that have watched from start to end.

On a related note, I loved how the NCAA threw in the majors of the girls in the starting lineup last night. Just like during the press conferences, everyone is introduced as a "student-athlete."

We get it - these kids attend institutions of higher learning. But why can't the NCAA just admit that when these players are on the basketball court or the football field, they are athletes only. Athletes who entertain millions of people and do not get paid, but make boatloads of cash for their schools and for the NCAA. They try and make it seem like Skyler Diggins is going to sneak in a few minutes of studying during halftime.

Lauren Jackson doesn't count, since she's not a college player, but is definitely hot. Skylar is attractive, but not my type. I like this girl better, despite the name on the uniform.

Two from the Huskies (201o) make this list. Caroline Doty is definitely still attractive.

Did they choose the starting 5 from Bowling Green? :)
