Pretty awesome for Michigan and Coach KBA
As I was joking with a friend because she's in the BIG10, let the revenge tour vs OSU begin.Pretty awesome for Michigan and Coach KBA
That would be hilarious!!As I was joking with a friend because she's in the BIG10, let the revenge tour vs OSU begin.
No idea if she was ever offered. Just find it hilarious that her brother will now have to wear maize and blue on occasion.![]()
The pace-of-play question about the expanded BIG and the PAC-12 transplants is an interesting one. The BIG and PAC-12 were starkly different conferences last year in terms of pace of play. Based on conference game info, the top 12 fastest teams from the 2 leagues last year were all from the BIG, and the 9 slowest teams from the 2 leagues were all from the PAC-12.This week's Hoopla report covers @nwhoopfan's Washington Huskies.

That's why I like Wyatt's blog posts about the teams. He outlines things I wouldn't even have considered when it comes to teams and their playing styles.The pace-of-play question about the expanded BIG and the PAC-12 transplants is an interesting one.

All seems fair enough. Man, that pace of play issue...I knew they weren't much fun to watch last year, now it is quantified why.This week's Hoopla report covers @nwhoopfan's Washington Huskies.

FYI - she's a dual citizen (US-Can). Was part of the U19 squad last year and has been training with the Canadian's Senior team alongside with Syla Swords, Cassandre Prosper and Yvonne Ejim.
I'm just kinda all in on Jaquez.
This week, Wyatt is bullish on Wisconsin.

They have someone special in Serah Williams. I remember her while she was in Canada playing for Niagara Prep. Still not clear as to why she was there (e.g. family relocation, recruited, etc.) but she got some great coaching there by Dave Picton. Some bad luck in losing that guard to Utah after her freshman season. Let's see what happens this season.I keep hoping that Wisconsin and Coach Moseley can turn the corner and inch up into that middle pack of the Big 10.
Serah is a beast! I am a huge Coach Moseley fan and wish her all the best. She is an excellent coach and I am just hoping that she can get Wisconsin up that middle pack of the Big Ten.They have someone special in Serah Williams.

Moseley has a good eye for under-recruited talent, but not sure she is otherwise a good coach. Curious what you see in her. Hope her good eye proves to be true with the N. Kentucky transfer and the 2 new international players arriving for this season. Williams needs some help.Serah is a beast! I am a huge Coach Moseley fan and wish her all the best.

I really liked their off-season. I have a hard time believing they will finish so low in the standings. I think they have a lot of talent, my concern is more about minute distribution. I almost don't know who shouldn't get minutes. I think it was intentional but it can really hurt chemistry, especially if things are not going well. I actually don't agree with the starting lineup listed but who knows at this point. But I will pick them to be top 8 in the conference.![]()

I am a low-key Oregon fan. I can't wait to see them playing in the Barn (Minneapolis) or at Michigan. They will probably finish in the middle of the pack of the Big Ten.![]()

Especially with the roster in place now compared to what was expected when she committed.Thanks for sharing! I enjoyed watching this & look forward to Syla doing well in Ann Arbor.
