Non-Lady Vol Basketball News 2023-24

I'm shocked by this. She's an easy first round WNBA pick this year, but may not be next season.

Bye Bridgeport!

 

[LadyOrange]

Not that I'm a complete skeptic but what is the source for this info?

All I can say is Lady Vols’ moms.

 

[Amb3096]

This is a random award winner. She's won B10 DPOY a few years in a row, but don't think she was a betting favorite for any of the national honors.

Sophie…yes she does play thug ball.

The one that didn’t get kicked off the team lol

So no one that has an actual clue

The mothers of players have no clue? Are you serious?

Bye Bridgeport!

So help me out... two teams will come out of each region so will there be two brackets in a region then ?

 

[Rickyvol77]

Lol yes. There are no police reports about any death threat and none have been produced. Don’t be gullible

That's what it sounds like. Which is weird, IMO. I'd rather see neutral rd 1 and 2 games

they tried neutral site games and the attendance was very poor.... i'd rather just got to the 4 regional sites. So two teams will cut down the nets in the same region? it is weird ...

I'll take anything that breaks up UConn Bridgeport at this point. Wonder what will happen to room rates during the regional and will there be sufficient facilities to support the fans of 8 teams? I expect it will be a logistics challenge.

Ah, I see jerk practice is in session.

The regional is in Greenville, SC though. So while it does benefit them i have seen LV fans travel to Greenville for the tourney. So maybe that'll be a good thing. If the team gets in that regional.

PG from Buffalo that torched us is in the portal. She should have a lot of interest avg 23 ppg and shot 40 %

Aijha didn’t get kicked off her team. You’re literally making things up. I do a lot of work in Boone County…you might want to sit this one out. I know what I’m talking about.

Sure she’s heading to Syracuse.

Greenville is a great place. I'm just questioning the logistics of two sites. I hope everything goes well.

Good player… she didn’t torch Tennessee. She went 10/28 shooting.

Looks like East and West sites for first 3 years. I hope ncaa waits until they have the qualifiers before assigning regions. Teams are used to doing arrangements on one week notice.
