  1. Once again the announcing crew is so depressed. There's only so much you can say about the Cyclone center's "bubbly personality" before admitting they're getting run out of the gym.
  2. Calm down, Taylor. Need to get deeper and quit rushing everything, whether Crooks is in there or not.
  3. I question that Maloney is good enough to help us. I feel like I'm watching Burke all over again.
  4. I'm not really complaining that we've returned to earth lately. Youth is hard to overcome, especially without a bunch of strikeout artists to cover our sporadic defense. It's on the coach to earn his money fixing this squad, but mainly to shore up our weaknesses through better recruiting .
  5. A lot of our early success has proved to be fool's gold. We mostly overwhelmed weak teams. Now our spotty pitching has become a major problem against opponents with real hitters. If we can't outslug you, we're toast. Just the way it is.
  6. In every sport, women's and men's, this has been the year for every announcing crew to not-so-subtly root for our opponent. More than usual, I mean. I'm sure it's been orchestrated by the emasculated commish.
  7. I like the strategy. It might work even better if she's not allowed to camp in the paint.
  8. All things considered, our D is holding up really well so far. Need to keep doing it. The Gonzales bombs obviously have been big.
  9. As good as our recruiting class is, no one in it is what you'd call a long-range bomber. I really hope we can find one the portal, because every serious contender has to make 3s.
  10. As it turned out, Booker, Moore and Jones did get us over the top, along with that key outburst by Holle. I'm hoping Gonzales can find her shot and the confidence to take it, as that would really help open up the floor against future opponents. We know we're heavily dependent on Booker to create. She's obviously been amazing, but in Harmon's absence we're just one rolled ankle or foul trouble away from having no reliable initiator on offense. What we could do about that I'm not sure, but getting more from Gonzales really would help.
  11. They already made our team spend three days in Lubbock. That's punishment enough.
  12. That's 3 hours on foot. So reduce that 12 million population by about 90 percent.
  13. I'll be the semi-casual fan who asks, "Why don't we have elite pitching?" Because we don't.
  14. I feel badly for Witt. I feel even worse for us apparently having him as our third-best starter.
  15. Regardless of the park or opponent, we certainly haven't looked like a national title contender this weekend.
  16. Huge fourth quarter on offense after sputtering around forever. Just a grittier effort overall. Let's carry that positive swing into Monday.
