Non-Lady Vol Basketball News 2023-24

These players seem to pretty much stay in a zone of their own. This is a totally different group than what Dawn has had in the past. They push themselves and she has said as much many times.

Good to hear. As always, I’ll be pulling for SC to get the win.

Geno still coaches better movement off the ball than anyone in the game....he does not need better "talent", his development and coaching still far exceeds most if not all programs. Having said that, this is a rare year where he really needs no injuries because this UCONN team is thinner than most he has had for a long while. In addition, once the tourney starts, his best player(s) will need to stay away from foul trouble. I think the smart opposing teams will try to attack his top 2 players offensively to see if they can put them in foul trouble, because if that happens, UCONN cannot win deep in the tourney, too many teams with more depth and similar talent this year.

Which teams have more depth that they actually play in competitive games?

Good point!

 

[NewDog]

Good point!

I hear that all the time but when you look into the team they say plays 8-9 players actually play only 6-7 in close games.

I'm sure Rooster is talking about South Carolina, one of the few teams that does go 8-9. But I bet it's less when they play UConn.

And UConn is actually going 7 deep these days.

January 9th - a number of good matchups, both in the SEC and nationwide, and I would expect some "upsets" if you gauge upsets this early in January

 

[mike099]

UConn 78
Baylor 72

South Carolina 85
Arkansas 72

UConn 78
Baylor 72

I bet Geno wished Cooper has remained at Tenn. She will probably score 30 on UConn.

Good for Baylor getting this huge road win!

Where the UConn fans at?

Called it, but Baylor won even bigger than I expected. I knew NyLyssa would have a turn around game today. Congrats to the Lady Bears.

Where’s that stray dog that’s been sniffing around?

 

[mike099]

Congrats to Baylor. Is landrum not playing as well this year on offense? I seem to remember she was on fire at times last year. Cox will make a big difference if she stays healthy.

Just a thought. If Baylor wins another NC with transfer with cooper, does mulkey go after another transfer guard with experience? Seems to work.

If only a certain player had been eligible....

UConn goes down. They are not championship caliber at all

Where’s that stray dog that’s been sniffing around?

pooping his pants and scrambling to block non husky fans on the bone yard at the moment. UConn fans are delusional as hell

Geno needed a healthy Evina. Now we see why he fought so hard to get her to play this season.

Geno needs a healthy enema.

North Carolina has an unknown but good coach.

Banghart has her signature win at NC.

 

[VA_VOLFAN]

Well I felt bad Rhyne Howard hung 37 on us well she just spanked Bama with 43

Then Boston from SC just had a 19 point 25 REBOUND game

These young bucks out here ballin’... Ms Horston and Ms Key both have talent as well and I am glad they are Lady Vols! The future of the SEC is in good hands!

Ok I was thinking that like she could have probably been a difference maker

HOWEVER she had a Lou Brown type brace on that knee! That thing was huge...

 

[stllvf]

Ky hit over 50% of threes against alabama and their star had 43. wow. two games in a row.
