TV can change perspectives.

Marta doesnt look that big to me in regular pictures (skinny even)but for some reason when I watch her on TV it makes her look bulkier

Are we down to making insulting comments about players physic's now?


think before you post! "What would Gov. mule say?"

 

[VolBall09]

So the Ohio State women's basketball players, some of whom never even met the guy, are the ones being punished for the despicable actions of the coach who no longer even works there? Sounds legit. (NOT.)

I agree with this. Also, almost none of the players who were affected are there anymore. They had a mass exodus when all that went on. I don’t think they have hardly any remaining players from his tenure. Even more sucky that they’re banned and they weren’t even there to enjoy the bottle service!

Can we let this die? She’s fine. I don’t think we need to comment on her appearance anymore. She’s a little thicker than she was in her film from 3 years ago (when she was 15). If you compare my current self to my 15yo self we look very different. Lol

 

[VolBall09]

Can’t find the game anywhere but it looks like Villanova is playing UCONN tight so far. Hitting some 3s and ONO has two fouls with 6 minutes left in the 2nd quarter. Two big if you’re gonna beat them. Got to hit some 3s and get their main big girl in foul trouble.

didnt know those films were 3 years old....definitely explains it

That’s not entirely true. Some of her film was from 2019 but she looks the same. There were some older videos posted on here from 17 and 18 and that’s where she looks a lot smaller in general. She didn’t appear quite as tall in those tapes either.

Clark with a triple double 13 pts, 13 rebs, 10 assists. She says, “Sabrina, who?”

But you don’t have to put on weight. You can do cardio and watch your diet.

Hmmm... How do we know what she (or any other athlete) was allowed to do, being in another country? Also how do we know what foods were available for athletes to eat?

I’ve coached good athletes who diets were crappy some because it was a choice some because it was what was available.

I also know that some of our athletes had longer quarantines and lay offs than others and didn’t get on the court until actual preseason and practice began.

KK looks the same or worse than she ever has. Just the way she runs or stands it wouldn't surprise me if she has issues with her knees or feet.

No, she is in much better shape than she has been previously in her career. Unfortunately, better conditioning doesn't always translate to better player...

UConn ended up rolling.

The most impressive stat for me in this boxscore. Sure, Nova lost by almost 40 points and only had 20 made baskets, but...they assisted on 19 of the 20 baskets. That is some efficient ball movement there!

Siegrist, an excellent player and vu's star, held to 6 of 22.
Westbrook was 7 for 10.

If Westbrook is going to keep playing at this level, UConn might be the best team in the country... a year ahead of schedule...

Sadly, I think this year is UConn's to lose. Their starting 5 has no real weaknesses, and they have enough depth on the bench to not have a drop off. I didn't think Bueckers would come flying out of the gates like she has. As impressive as Clark, Van Lith and Paopao have been...Bueckers has had no problems showing why she was the #1 recruit.

That’s great but i will reserve that judgement til i see Uconn against some of the top teams...

Not allowed to jog? Forced to eat twinkies? Please.....

It's too bad that they had to cancel the MSST game. That had potential to be a great matchup. Same with Louisville and seeing Bueckers vs. Van Lith. With all the cancellations, looks like they will only play 3 ranked team for the rest of the season: Baylor, DePaul (x2) and SC. I'm going to predict that UConn whoops up on Baylor/Depaul, and the SC game will be a close "pick 'em" situation.

Ok... SO AGAIN you don’t know what she was or wasn’t allowed to do.

You don’t know what this young lady had available to her so check your privilege at the door... PERIOD!

I’ve been respectful of you thus far ... let’s keep the respect going. Please....

B*tch, I've been in the situation where I was forced to eat Twinkies. Stop pretending that doesn't happen!!!!

Baylor’s perimeter isn’t as strong but i think that game will be better than expected. There forwards and post should go to work and i’m thinking Didi will be a difference maker. If Carrington gets going it could make it all the more interesting
