Were DII playing the same equipment and dimensions?

Saying she scored more than any NCAA hockey player in history is also undeniably true. It's not apples and oranges. Just a broader category. Sports in general. She's scored more than any NCAA soccer player too, I'm sure. You know, nets, balls, points...

I mean, anyone is free to make those arguments, and we'll be free to point to how useless and stupid they are.

What's funny is that trying to conflate this point is actually undermining NCAA women's sports. It's like their accomplishments can't be important if it's just a women's accomplishment. Somehow, it's only important if it's somehow conflated with men's sports? Otherwise, apparently, it's just measuring the tallest "short person".

Did they not make a tweet when she broke the women’s record too?

And? I think the "too" is what the points have been about.

Guys like James Harden would seriously struggle in that era of basketball, where traveling, palming, and double dribble were called.

They would adapt just like great players from earlier generations playing in this one.

 

[drvenner]

Using a word like fibbing doesn’t change the fact that he lied to the organization that could have caused the university major problems. And the fact that the organization is a scumbag for not treating every school equally doesn’t change the fact that he did what he did.

It was bad judgement, no doubt. All could have been avoided if our compliance department had talked to him about what was coming. They chose to send him in there blind and he made a bad choice.

So two NIT's and a sweet 16 from the first four is somehow terrible? It wasn't amazing, but people acting like Cuonzo was the worst coach ever is dumb.

As I said, “not that bad” or not necessarily “terrible” is a helluva bar. Better than Buzz Peterson (fired) but not as good as Jerry Green (also fired). I gave him a chance and wasn’t against him coming back after the Sweet 16 run, but I felt a chance for a clear upgrade was possible when he left for Cal. His short tenure there and at Mizzou demonstrates what we missed out on.

I think most of them would, after some initial confusion and difficulty.

I referenced James Harden specifically due to his perceived mental fitness. I think there’s a real possibility he would melt.

Well yeah, I'm only giving him props when some people act like he was the worst coach ever.

He's got too much ability not to adapt, IMO.

Never claimed that. I was a fully functional 19 year old when Wade Houston was in charge.

 

[85SugarVol]

He’s got all the physical ability in the world. More than enough to play in any era.

But he is crazy. So there’s that lol. Would he be able to handle the mental adjustment. Who knows.

Certainly enough to read the flavor on the box.
