IF we look at the play-by-play at the yahoo site, Marshall gets "team rebounds" at 9:11, 7:52, 5:01, 2:30, 1:25, 0:43, and 0:29 VT gets a "team rebound" at 5:59. They also get one at 3:59, but that one is between free throws, so it's automatic. ========== EDITS: Times are for the 4th quarter...

I'm a bit stumped too. https://sports.yahoo.com/ncaaw/marshall-thundering-herd-virginia-tech-hokies-202403220620/ VT was 28-52 from the floor (So 24 missed shots) 26-31 on free throws (so between 0 and 5 opportunities for rebounds) Marshall was 19-78 from the floor (so 59 missed shots) 5-8 on...

That mini-tournament -- is it one game or two?

I think it was because Pitt won the national championship in 1976 that Tennessee wanted Majors. I assume the natty got Majors some slack for a few weak seasons. Nowadays it would be a lot less slack.

I didn't live in Knoxville at the time so I did not take it as a compliment to U-T. I took it as Geno's plea to young women to not go to U-T. A former boss of mine played baseball at Ohio State -- he said that recruiting was a dirty business. I don't see what's so unbelievable about a...

You're right. It's such a far cry from Geno calling Pat Summitt and Tennessee "The Evil Empire." It could never happen ever.

Did anyone else get a robocall from her?

Dolly fumbled the song (deliberately?) and no one seemed to mind.

So Louisville should have appeared in post 592? Or is it just one game for each team? Did the women lose their brackets again? :)
