But Baylor isn't close to the level of Stanford academically.

For Kiki, my guess is: Notre Dame or Duke...USC if she wants to stay in Cali. Vanderbilt if she wants to be dead to DarkPhoenix forever.

My guess is The Ohio State. There aren’t a ton of colleges that explicitly have design engineering programs, and even fewer that are good at basketball.

As a nerd who’s a fan of several pro athletes with engineering degrees, I can’t wait to see who she picks so I can talk academics.

Everyone here knows how I feel about Kiki, Kim needs to get on the phone and make it happen, this is the type of player that can lead us where we need to go.

Yes. Like Parker. Can play any position. Caldwell’s players at Marshall could play any position. And we know from watching LVs that height doesn’t necessarily mean you can get the rebound or get around a shorter defender.

Shots were forced last year instead of being part of offensive flow.

Believe it or not, shots taken as part of run and gun are more inflow then late clock heaves.

Yeah we had one of the best tough shot MAKERS in the entire country in Rickea. Most of her buckets were heavily guarded. She’s just that dang good. Our offense did not do a good job of getting anyone easy buckets.

Every now and then we’d get something easy on the secondary break but that was few and far between.

The way CKC wants her players to defend really does remind me of Texas. She doesn’t want you getting back, she wants you getting up. Maybe create some TOs for really quick scores. Forcing those TOs in the back court really rattles a team.

CKC obviously under stands offense because all of her teams have scored and scored well. She updated her roster with what she needed for her system and Marshall went from 63.7 ppg in 22-23 to 85.3 ppg in 23-24. That is nuts, a 22 point increase for a program is impressive.

Agree with your point about RJ. I was obviously not talking about shots taken by RJ but shots taken by lots of others were forced and not in rhythm,

i think Tess and Jewel will put up larger numbers when taken in the transition flow.

It also makes the other team shoot/play faster than they want.
