Reviewing what Duke did last year, I would say he specializes in teaching guards to play tenacious defense.

I'm just going to put this here bc I want fellow Gamecock opinions. This is trashy to me. I'd be MORTIFIED if anyone on our WBB team did this. I'm sorry. Maybe it's just me. I thought we were trying to ADVANCE women's sports...NOT objectify them.

Well, we’ve won the last 12 in a row.

Wasn’t exactly a defeathering but last loss to the upstaters was 11/19/09. A 94-92 double OT loss in Littlejohn. USC went 14-15 in Dawn Staley’s second season in Columbia. They also lost in her first season so Dawn is 12-2 versus Clemson at USC.

What the game needs! The world isn’t ready for Lay!

Already looking forward to rotations with Lay at the 2 and Paopao playing on the wing.

Anybody watched Tessa Johnson and Sanya Jah play in the ballislife all star game? Tessa can really shoot and Jah is really athelectic but had too many Eniya Russel Turnover' IMO. The type where you make a move or slick pass and the ball is lost. The LSU signing class was there also Williams, Del Rosario and Vasquez.

I'm convinced she'll be the next big thing at guard. She plays with that fearlessness that coach likes in her guards and I think she is a perfect fit for Dawn's system. She has the potential to have that Caitlin Clark kind of wow factor. I know it's a lot of pressure to put on a freshman and I don't expect her to perform at that level as a freshman but I do expect to see glimpses of it as she gets adjusted to this level.

The finishing ability will set her apart. No other WBB player at any level can use an array of moves to finish. Her ability to contort and control her body mid air is a thing of beauty. What’s scarier is she can hit those same Caitlin Clark logo 3s too. Idk if Dawn will allow her to do it in the way that Lisa does with Clark but I’m sure she’ll have some type of green light if shes hot.

No fulwiley?

Never has made team USA. Kitts has been in the program of course.

Semi surprised that Cooper got an invite, but very easy to forget how highly rated she was.

Well, she's definitely getting national "exposure."

Is that good or bad for wbb?

This is not a sports Illustrated picture I think. In this past swimsuit issue-Stewie was photographed in there..btw

I watched the pivot podcast episode with Dawn Staley. I didn’t know Amihere wanted to transfer this past season.

This is an SI Swimsuit issue that Reese and LSU Dunne where asked to participate in. SI had an issue last year featuring WNBA players. So what's the issue with two college athletes being in the issue? SI Swimsuit issue means the models are going to be dressed in swimsuits.

No one knew until Dawn said something lol. LA probably felt like she was a starter and Saxton returning meant she couldn’t. I’m glad she stuck it out.

I can believe it. She once was the #2 prospect for her class before some injuries sidelined her. She never started and Saxton makes use of her Covid year, basically assuring she won't get the guaranteed playing time as a starting power forward.

I don't know how Dawn did it but I'm sure she'll be using Amihere as a poster child for future recruits on sticking it out.

Amihere is a great example of perseverance and trusting the process. Not only for SC, but athletes in general.

It paid off as the first non-starter to be drafted in the first round since Azure Stevens in 2018. I wouldn’t be surprised if Amihere one day grows into a DeWanna Bonner type (all the crayons are in the box, they just need sharpened), but even if her ceiling is like Stevens’, that’s not a bad place to be. Azure is a really solid WNBA player.

Box Score versus Iowa. ..by all means these two Seniors did not cost us the game but but just 6 points between the two of them and we win that game..

 

[Creature]

In comparison. Iowa role players scored 6 Points

Still puzzled that Amihere got 15 minutes that game. Based on those stats she was pretty efficient that night.

The biggest issue on that stat sheet is Bree Beal with so little production and so many minutes and she wasn't even guarding Clark. I thought Amihere shut Clark down when she was in the game.

After Saxton said she was coming back..not suprising.

I floated the idea of Amihere coming to Duke. She would have gotten alot more than ten minutes a game in Durham and would have played in a better looking uniform. These kids need to listen to me once in a while.
