I'm on board with giving players one transfer without penalty, and having to sit out a year if there's a second transfer. Too often kids make the wrong decision about schools based on what OTHERS want for them or, even, what they themselves THOUGHT they wanted, only to get there and if not immediately, then soon realize they'd made a huge, unhappy mistake. I don't think kids should have to suffer for having made a mistake.

And I believe that the majority of kids who find themselves in that position take much more care in making the decision on which school to transfer to, because by the time they do they actually know more about what college is all about and can make a more informed decision.

Especially true if there's a coaching change.

0-28 Hartford wins 1st game of season by upsetting 25-2 Stony Brook. Unbelievable

 

[lvocd]

Jen Rizzotti left Hartford in poor condition, and now that she’s at George Washington, they’ve dipped as well.

Congrats to the players and coaching staff of Alabama. What kind of defense did they run, especially on Carter?

 

[VolBalls33]

Alabama could possibly make the tournament if the beat Missouri in the finale and win 2 in the SEC tourney to get to 20 wins. After tonights games...Bama 52 in RPI, Lady Vols are 59

She just missed about 75% of her shots!!!!

Auburn wins at Missouri with 3 players scoring 20 plus points, not named double double machine Unique Thompson. UT will have to play well to win Sunday.

If someone other than MO State wins the conference tourney, would that be one less spot for an at large? I would think MO State would be in regardless of what happens in their tournament.

Illinois State beat Missouri State, not Southern Illinois.

Kristy Curry may have done the most amazing coaching job of any coach in the SEC this year, having done much more with much less than anyone else (IMO). That group of young women should be extremely proud of the season they're having.

The ACC really had a pretty poor season overall. Louisville and N.C. State are the only two teams that are really quality basketball teams.

Duke played well to close the season but are 18-11 with some bad losses and a couple good wins.

Florida State, Notre Dame, Miami and Syracuse were all ranked well to begin the season and have had subpar seasons that are getting worse and not better.

Way to go Vandy. Always happy for a doormat that hangs in there and pulls off a big win. Takes guts.

 

[Darth_Vol]

Congrats to Vandy, who finishes with more quality wins than Tennessee...

 

[VA_VOLFAN]

Congrats to Vandy, who finishes with more quality wins than Tennessee...

Syracuse women’s basketball player will miss postseason with injury i hate to see any player go down with this injury

 

[VolBall09]

Maybe I’m late to the game, but I just saw Promise Taylor has medically retired from basketball. She looked really good as a freshman at Ole Miss and I expected big things for her at MSST.

Apparently she had reconstructive surgery on her ankle and struggled with the recovery process. Wishing her all the best, always sad when injuries dictate a players ability.

That’s kind of sad cometary on the current state of our program. I remember when bama had some very good teams, but not lately.
