Don’t understand why people are confused by the slow starts. Who do you think has the advantage when the other team plays their starting 5 for the first 6-8 minutes and Tenn has players 6-10 in the game a minute in? I can’t think of any situation in basketball history where matching you bench...

Vukosa is a rare true center. I’d say the best center in the 2025-27 classes other than Betts. She will be a great get for whoever lands her. But she isn’t a fit in what will likely be Tennessee’s system. She won’t ever be comfortable playing at that pace and pressing full court. Not a knock at...

Upside is spot on. No real fundamentals to speak of and not much of a threat outside the paint. But best athlete I saw all summer. Very similar to Ashlyn Watkins. Very high motor and loads of energy and athleticism.

Lot of elite guards in 2027 class. Very deep in the back court. Kaleena Smith deserves to be at the top. But there are 10+ guards with 5-star potential. Some like Smith and Banks have elite quickness and others like Ayers and Chastain can play 1-3. Chastain was coaching at Adidas finals and...

No reason to debate ignorance, but why not try. The fact that you think Adidas teams get to choose who they play in the sessions tell me you have no clue how summer ball works. Adidas, similar to EYBL, breaks teams into pools. For Adidas they play everyone in their pool plus one game outside of...

Not sure I’d go so far as to say it’s a joke. But I agree they do need an overhaul. Reminds me of the men 10-15 years ago when they thought they could just send either older vets or younger flashy players over and roll the ball out. The world was sending fundamental players and started beating...

Nyla Brooks would be a great fit for the system. I was told at session 1 by a college scout that she has the chance to be a longer Rickea Jackson if she works on her midrange. Her length would be great on the press. But no top player will commit until they see a change in sub patterns. Club...

I agree with all of these takes. Yes, I have just as big of an issue with players standing around. It's terrible to watch and difficult to score. Plus, the opponent spends no energy on the defensive end. But you can have movement without subbing players out every 90 seconds. There are...

Didn’t say she said it as the LV head coach. It’s the style she’s always used and she said she’s playing the same at UT. That’s all I’m going by. She said before the Sun Belt final that her target time for a player to be on the floor was 90 seconds. She said that is every player, including the...

VaTech and SC most definitely played multiple styles. There were games where they went to Kitley and Cardoso early and other games when they played through Amoore and PaoPao early to open up the middle. If they relied only on one style then SC wouldn’t have gone undefeated when they played 5...

I disagree. What’s difficult to defend is having multiple styles. One style is easy to prep for. You prep to defend the system. Sure the player might be a little more fresh but they’re playing the same role as the player they just replaced. That’s easy. What’s tough is preparing for a team like...

She subs players out similar to a hockey line change. She wants players to play hard for 90 seconds at a time and then substitute out.

Very true. This style can work. But there is no chance that players like JuJu, CC or Hidalgo are willing to play this style. She admitted she wants to limit players to less than 2 min stretches.

Guessing it’s because they aren’t sure she’ll be back. Doesn’t sound like KC is willing to alter her style and top players aren’t signing up to play in 90 second spurts. Not saying she won’t be successful but it’ll be with gritty 2 and 3 star type players. Rickea Jackson isn’t playing that style...

So strange to have a hire like this be such an unknown. Being D2 and mid she wasn't recruiting much in the championship gyms in the summer. She will need to hire assistants with connections to the top prospects and summer club teams. This style has a potential to be exciting but the announcer...
