UCLA continues to stockpile talent

[cockhrnleghrn]

Not in the final four for the last 6 years and yet none of the other SEC teams have overtaken Tennessee ? Sounds like a mediocre conference to me.

Change is in the air.

 

[MilfordHusky]

To most people, UC refers to the California system.

 

[Geno-ista]

Change is in the air.

Yes it is!

When the other schools I mentioned were on the National scene...it wasn't only their fans saying that either....same outcome.

Sorry, but Pat is not there anymore and for half a decade they have been far less than invulnerable. CT passed them long ago and others are knocking on the door.

No need to apologize...I'm WELL aware of Pat's absense....I'm not concerned about CT passing us...I was referring to South Carolina...when we play you all again, that's when ill be concerned with UCONN....UCONN has beaten everyone in the book these past couple of years except Tenn...now I do blame us for not being able to get in position to play you guys but I've always believed Tenn is the only team in the country with the horses to give UCONN a battle....we don't have the jockey....just yet but the horses are there and match up quite well with you all....but hey...I'm hoping we'll get to see this upcoming season and in Tampa if we've caught up to you guys or not.

Could be. And about time.

I wasn't talking about UCONN as a threat either that left the barn long ago. TN will continue to be passed as they have by Stanford and ND. Now that issue has come home to roost in the SEC.

Women's basketball is about the only top sport that Tennessee has any more. USC has passed them in football and definitely in baseball, with women's basketball passing them on the outside for the stretch. Hopefully, Frank Martin will get our men's basketball team out in front before long, too.

 

[Wonkster]

The same it makes Furman University....

And what is FurMan's mascot? A Trapper?

 

[Ozzie Nelson]

Maybe FurBall.

Tenn has a very good softball team, or am I mistaken?

Tenn, So Carolina, and Kentucky will jockey for position in the SEC. Should be fun to watch these teams in the coming seasons, much as I'll enjoy watching Duke, ND, Maryland, and UNC slug it out in the ACC. The B12 has been competitive for a while, as has the B10. No, it's not all teams in these leagues that have a chance to win but it's great that we won't know which of the top 3-4 might win their conference. I do think we're seeing the beginning of parity and it's pretty exciting for wcbb fans.

 

[Wonkster]

I don't think it's anything like parity yet, but I think we are approaching Geno's hope for WCBB when he said "Women's college basketball doesn't need parity, it needs more good teams."

Yes they do; their softball program is a little better than ours. I was only looking at the top 4 sports.

 

[Joe6cats]

The first time I heard somebody refer to "UConn", right after I moved to CT from PA, I assumed they meant Yukon Alaska. Live and learn...

when you beat ND then you'll come within 10-20 pt's of UCONN, then you can make that statement!!!!
If Tenn can get there horses going one way together........
