Other games tonight 1/24

Indiana up 65-58 with 40 seconds left

Man, Kim Barnes-Arico is starting to disappoint. Finally got to NCAAs last year after 4 WNITs, but now might be headed for another W.

Ultimately it's a zero sum game. A lot of good and great coaches out there; not all can turn their programs into perennial NCAA teams.

Are there?

Amanda Butler deserves all the credit for this rapid turnaround at Clemson, but she got a huge boost when Simone Westbrook followed her there and got a 7th year of eligibility:
Florida's Simone Westbrook gets rare 7th year of eligibility

 

[Plebe]

Are there?

e.g., Amanda Butler has surely shown this season that she's at least a "good" coach, turning around a moribund Clemson program that hadn't sniffed success in eons. Yet she was fired from Florida...

 

[LETTERL]

NC State leads Clemson, 37-31, 6:53 left 3rd quarter. Tigers with 14 turnovers.

 

[LETTERL]

Timeout Clemson...NC State showing signs of starting to roll. 43-35, Wolfpack Women lead, 2:15 left 3rd quarter.

 

[eebmg]

KY looks like it will win this game of oppression 49-41 with 1' left. Coach Mitchell dressing down with a sweatshirt. If you can get away with it, more power to him.

 

[LETTERL]

A quick 5-point burst by Kiara Leslie (a THREE...followed by a steal and layup) gave NC State its biggest lead of the game at 48-37, before the Tigers got a bucket at the buzzer. NC State leads 48-39, going to the 4th.

 

[triaddukefan]

Too many games to follow.... can only watch one at a time. Might have to watch the replay of a few. I dont hear any wailing outside coming from the West.. so I assume TN is playing close to ND

 

[nwhoopfan]

Kentucky up 11 over Missouri in the closing seconds.

 

[triaddukefan]

I assumed I would go to the gym and lift weights after a Duke Thursday night win...... but im really hungry so I think imma just start planning on a post game celebration meal. Then again.... a post celebration meal would probably take 10 straight hours on the treadmill to burn off

 

[nwhoopfan]

Michigan St. up 10 over Illinois w/ 30 seconds left (must be in East Lansing if the Spartans are winning).--oops, end of Q3 not Q4

tOSU leading Maryland by 1 late in Q1

Ha nice dig at Michigan State. Pretty much true. They have yet to win a Big Ten game on the road.

Butler shocked me, she was not very good at UF, good to see her improve.

 

[LETTERL]

4:43 left...Clemson on an 8-0 run to make it a 50-47 game in Raleigh.

 

[Vowelguy]

Clemson up 1 with 3 to go

 

[LETTERL]

NC State turned the ball over on three consecutive possessions...all steals. Tigers lead 51-50.

 

[LETTERL]

Timeout Clemson...1:22 left. NC State leading 52-51.

 

[Vowelguy]

NCS-Clemson -- It's like the old days of listening to a radio broadcast with announcers from one team. Complete with poor sound quality. An entertaining listen.

 

[Plebe]

I switched away from TN-ND, which is now out of reach.

Almost surreal watching Clemson on the verge of beating a top 10 team on the road.

 

[LETTERL]

Beautiful backdoor cut by Leslie...54-51, NC State...39 seconds left.

 

[Plebe]

Nice out of bounds play by NC State to give Leslie a layup.

I tell ya, Clemson has some athletes on this team. They are quick and very disruptive on defense.

 

[nwhoopfan]

NC State has 2 wolves and a panda for mascots....huh?

 

[Plebe]

Wow, Konig misses both FTs to keep Clemson very much in the game. A three will tie it...

 

[nwhoopfan]

4 straight missed FTs by NC State but 2 wasted possessions by Clemson
