You kidding?

They have thousands of 18-21 year old gurls in Iowa eating five pounds of corn per day. They all wanting to join the meat wagon.

Lol

So I wonder how good Iowa will be next year with the loss of Czinano? Seems like they can’t just slot in any players to fit their system.

Czinano was nearly as important to Iowa as Clark, so it will be extremely difficult for the Hawkeyes to repeat this year's success. I heard them say earlier that Warnock has another year of eligibility, and Bluder better hope she decides to stay.

Did Clark chase the other girl around the court and taunt her to her face with her ring finger? I'm not a huge fan of what Clark did, nor what Reece did at the foul line, but Reece is consistently like this and took it up about 5 octaves at the end.

Makes me happier our girls were celebrating the way they did in the SEC tourney.

agree. But, we didn’t actually win the SEC tournament.

 

[Amb3096]

oh..

Did not know that. Then nevermind.

Fun while it lasted.

Warnock, Marshall and Martin can all still use their Covid year. Of the starters, only Czinano is done, and it seems they cloned her on the bench (Grady? O’Grady?)

 

[creekdipper]

Did you miss Clark doing it a week ago? The “you can’t see me”? I’m a Clark fan, but what is good for the goose is good for the gander. Believe Reece was also establishing who in her opinion was the best player and team to Clark….nothing wrong with it in a game of emotions.

That makes no sense.

 

[LUVMESUMVOL]

The epitome of class.

I want some dawgs if it will help us win a championship.I will take a classless team championship right about now

Clark is a trash talker/taunt, we can pick and choose what is acceptable and not. But trash talk is trash talk. I like Clark’s style and her trash….today she got second and a dose of trash directed back. She’s not used to that.

Warnock has already said she's off to dental school, and Martin has announced she's coming back. Not sure about Marshall.

I think Stuelke already showed a lot of promise and will make a nice leap slotting in for Czinano. And she's more athletic and mobile.

Czinano was the backup to Gustafson. I don’t think she’s innately talented, but played her role in the system with Clark to perfection. She’s not gonna be seeing herself on a WNBA team unless Clark decides to go with her.

Monika is the one starter that I think they can replicate without a bench player.

If I’m a big in the portal CC is #1 on my list of people I want to play with. The way she delivers to the post is incredible.

Geniuses got what they wanted, and they're about to find out the ramifications...

LSU winning a natty really doesn't impact UT. Were not in that tier and haven't been for a while.

All it means is what most people realized the minute she was hired--South Carolina is gonna have to make some room at the top. Its not a one woman show anymore.

If they have any interest in post-grad degrees and as close as they are, I could see some or all coming back. They have an opportunity that won't be offered much longer. And they seem very durable and not injury prone. Why not extend your big-time rock star career an extra year?

Edit: Just now saw post about Warnock and dental school.

And yet, who beat that same LSU team in the sec semi-finals?

I dunno. Tennessee is basically battling for 3rd place in the SEC with LSU and SC leading by a mile. They all go for the same recruits, who were watching those two teams on the final weekend.

Sad, but true. After seeing her win this championship in year 2, with 9 new players, I’m completely deflated.

Then what actually is a standard of acceptable sportsmanship? Is there one? I don't mind the trash talk and playing with an edge. I grew up on playground ball my entire life. I'm not clutching pearls here. There's a line somewhere.

Yep, must be it.

and Mississippi State beat UT. No one is saying they are a better program than UT. Its about more than head to head bro.

Basically anything less than punching an opponent in the handshake line after the game.

 

[JCP201]

How? By calling fouls that probably should have been called in the last game? They have actually let them play more that you think, though.

Iowa couldn't even defend during the whole fourth quarter. The refs were terrible calling on ricky ticky junk and this was a National Championship game.

No.
