Non-Lady Vol Basketball News 2025-26

LSU always plays the worst team in the country this time of year. This was no exception, but Zakiyah Johnson looked incredible. Hitting the glass, posting up, rake and take in transition. She put up 25 and 10 in her first “game” as a Tiger. Fun player to watch.

Mississippi College ranked number 128 in division two by Massey. The team were playing is 101 so according to Massey were playing a little better team. Carson Newman is ranked number 40 and were high like that last season when we played them. Right now looks like we could reach 140 points just like LSU did come the 29th. Not much of a challenge but it does let you play someone other than your own teammates.

Really embarrassing when you scrimmage a D2 team and lose as West Texas A&M beats Arizona 60 to 57. Of course it does not count, but you have to know your team is in for a very tough season.

Amazing that just a few years ago Arizona seemed like one of the biggest up and coming programs. What a drastic fall!

Barnes was just too much of a narcissist. Curious to see how she does at SMU. I know she enjoyed that AZ loss more than anyone.

I tried to tell everyone about Zakiyah Johnson back in April, she’s the real deal.

 

[KnoxLikeUs]

Didn’t care then and don’t care now. Tennessee has 14 players that can score 25 points or whatever against Mississippi College.

Would you leave with Sarah Strong having three more years. Blanca having four years. The big O having four years starting next year. Most of his roster is young. Can’t see him leaving anytime in the foreseeable future. I have a feeling that it will not be Shea Ralph, but it will be Karla Berube.

Spot on. Geno is damned healthy along with his staff…CD 41 years, Jamelle Elliott 30 years, and Morgan Valley of more than 25. Berube is a northeastern woman, really smart, and a class act. My dark horse guess is Morgan Valley.

SC over Anderson 112 to 31, Anderson is rated number 78 in Division two. Looks like they dominated inside in this game Edwards with 27 and Okot with 16. Latson 14 points in this game. They play NC on October 30th in an exhibition I guess if NC decides to play a whole game.

Freshman Makeer had 17 points, she looked ready. Okot had 17/15. Anderson was a very short team, but Okot is no stiff, very athletic and runs the floor fast.

Morgan Valley is not head coach material. In the 20 years since she left UConn she has been an assistant coach at 8 or 9 schools. Her one head coaching gig she had a 4 and 37 record. Berube and Ralph are both good coaches, but I think that UConn will look for the best available coach and not limit their search to Auriemma's coaching tree.

I am 100% certain it will be a former UConn player.

MM=Mickey Mouse? Maris & Mantle?

 

[volforlife10]

looks like nc state beat maryland in an exhibition game 83-75.

What's wrong with Marshall Mathers hands?

 

[J.P.]

The Real MM isn't a he, it's Marilyn Monroe, just like the real USC isn't South Carolina, it's Southern Cal.

[Dak1219]

Is that the Real USC that played Arizona State or South Carolina?

Mike Matthews. Cuz. Talking about catching a football. Hence, wrong thread.

 

[chuckiepoo]

I am 100% certain it will be a former UConn player.

That worked well for the Lady Vols, eh?

 

[stllvf]

NC State first opponent beat Maryland in their exhibition

 

[StorrsCentral]

I am 100% certain it will be a former UConn player.

Who else would take the job?

 

[Volfan2012]

Arizona State 78, USC 76 Richmond 72, Virginia Tech 64
Louisville 72, Belmont 58
Texas Tech 86, Texas A&M 76
Auburn 66, Southern Miss 60
Minnesota 72, Northern Iowa 41
Temple 77, Penn State 70

A little surprised that Arizona St beat USC not to surprised that Richmond won over Va Tech. Auburn by six over number 204 ranked Southern Miss. Texas Tech over Texas A&M and A&M still playing Joni Taylor 1.6 million a year lol.
