I'm guessing that the dirty t is VERY happy with the coaching change

I know you have your feelings, but Barnes got fans excited about Arizona basketball. They were packing the building and they were loud. Diminishing returns, but fans are pretty short sighted if they forget what it was like before she revitalized the program.

Attendance so far is averaging about 5300, down 1000 from last season and way down from a peak of around 7800 during Barnes' tenure. Maybe the fans in Arizona aren't THAT excited about the change?
 
Loree Payne has the Broncos bucking in Santa Clara -10-0 start over Fresno State, operating under a new coach - wonder what happened to Jaime White, I thought she was doing a good job there.

5-0 start - the attendance may be a result of the cupcakes - the annual attendance of 6300 last year was for ALL last year including BIG 12 games -- the ASU, TCU, Tech games all had between 7600-8600 fans, and the other BIG 12 games were above 5300, last year in early non conference the kitties played UNLV rather that the UC - Riverside/Irvine duo and the kitt fayns are ..... well they know their BB and they know their opponents.

Last year the kitties were 13th in attendance in D1 - a tribute to the dirty t - we'll see where they end up . . . we both know it will be significantly above the ponies draw.

I know that the fashionista would have liked to remain at her alma mater, but the run was over. I think following her summit - the double bird, it was slowly but surely downhill.

As my sister in law used to say of me and my brother - we are violently agreeing.

Something about the ‘fashionista’ moniker makes me a wee bit uncomfortable.

I don't know about currently, but The Pit used to be a tough place to play. Texas Tech comes to town and rolls to a 82-57 win. Maybe, just maybe, TTU could be half decent this year.
 
Is Jody Wynn back at Washington? Shooting 5-18 from the floor, 0-4 behind the arc, barely leading Vermont. This is like the good ol' days.

Yet again, no Ladine. Still not a peep from the school about her status.
 
Agara w/ a perfect game for Stanford--10-10 shooting, 1-1 behind the arc, 3-3 from the charity stripe. Their schedule has been not much so far, but hopefully they are bouncing back after an uncharacteristic season last year.

Hey at least Wake Forest is repping the ACC. Beat Western Carolina to improve to 6-0. Also have wins against Radford, Presbyterian, Hampton, Mercer and NC Central. 😄

Is that as lame as Iowa State's schedule? So far it's St Thomas, Southern, Sacred Heart, Valpo, Norfolk St, Drake, and Mercyhurst. They have Northern Illinois and Northern Iowa coming up.

Guess it is worse. Massey has Wake's schedule rank at....408th. I thought there were only 363 D1 teams.
 
.-.
UCLA pitched a shut out in Q2. Leading Southern U. 49-9 at the half.


I'm about ready for the real games to start! We've had a number of good match ups in OOC, but so many completely meaningless games like this.


edit--Close still tinkering w/ her starting lineup, today Gneepkens out and Dugalic in

Usually Missouri Valley teams are pretty good for mid majors, but I think several of them are down this year. Including Drake and Northern Iowa. Still it's cool that Iowa and Iowa St. play the other D1 schools in state each year and they do home and home AFAIK.
 
Broncos improve to 5-2 with a 81-63 home win over Fresno State. Former Lumberjack Sophie Glancy who had 19 double-doubles last year with the NAU in the Big Sky put up a double-double for Loree Payne. She was joined in double figures by Ava Schmidt current teammate and teammate last year at NAU
