I know nobody wants to hear it, but she is soft.Great win! My only gripe is Dorka needs to stop tipping and tapping at the ball! Grab it with both hands!

Kudos to our squad.. We were just better... on the road... impressive down arguably our top 2-3 players...
Dorka's thumb may have been hurting.Great win! My only gripe is Dorka needs to stop tipping and tapping at the ball! Grab it with both hands!
Geez I hope not. You'd hope there's some kind of standard and that a coach yelling or the excitement of the home crowd doesn't sway you. And Geno paying a fine is funny.... the guy is a millionaire many times over it's a drop in the bucket for him whatever the fine is.I wonder if it had an effect on the refs. They started calling fouls on the Vols that they ignored in the 1st half. If they got the message, Geno will gladly pay the fine.
It might not have swayed them to favor UCONN, but it might have caused them to realize that they were being inconsistent.Geez I hope not.

Sit down and rest your knee Azzi!View attachment 83490
Looks like Caroline is almost out of concussion protocol
I just wish their default mode was let 'em play. It's the easiest because by default you're being consistent and avoid controversy. Once you start trying to tighten the game or even things out is when you run into problems.It might not have swayed them to favor UCONN, but it might have caused them to realize that they were being inconsistent.
Dorka seems to have weak wrists/forearms. Contested rebounds and times when she had the ball away from her body, opponents were able to strip the ball away. Needs a stronger grip. I squeezed a tennis ball to strengthen wrists/forearms. This strength should help her around the rim, as a few of her shots inside were weak.Great win!

Exactly. And they started the game that way. Geno always insists that the players have to know what is & isn't a foul. And it is the refs' job to be consistent.I just wish their default mode was let 'em play. It's the easiest because by default you're being consistent and avoid controversy.

Yeah, maybe more of a finesse player. If she could build upper body strength though...Aaliyah 2.0 (...she's a brick house...)I know nobody wants to hear it, but she is soft.
The dynamic changes if Azzi comes back. The injuries are terrible for us but they are probably no picnic for an opponent either because no one knows who will walk on the court from game to game.... scouting reports can't be as reliable.Bolded areas are all a preview of the SC game. Staley will have them pressure the ball screens, gum up the handoffs, take away the post entry passes and pound the offensive boards.
I got a giggle out of this
Really, I never heard the boos, including DePaul Monday. Now during the games yes.Our fans do the same for big games…
She'd help a lot for sure but I doubt she'll be ready. With only one perimeter shooter available, Beal will most likely be on LLS to neutralize her.The dynamic changes if Azzi comes back.

No fouls were called in the first quarter; UConn was tired. Once the flow became interrupted constantly in the second half, the game was over. UConn had more weapons, both offensively and defensively.Jackson should have been tossed. That was about as flagrant an intent to injure as I've seen in a while.
Nika tied Paige Bueckers' old assist record (one short of her own record from earlier this year) and is back over 9 assists a game. She only had one foul in 40 minutes and that one looked questionable, as the Tennessee player appeared to slide sideways into her path.
After one of the best first quarters I've ever seen them play, followed by an awful second, Connecticut really came out focused in the second half.
Please note the turnovers from the Vols’ two best players.
