  1. Gotcha. I figured that ship had sailed long ago but I guess the Chavez’s strung the Lubbock faithful along. She’s a good player and would complement Kyla well.
  2. Where did they want her to go? I thought Dad was all in. Hmmm…
  3. Not a surprise. Not sure who made the final decision, though. Dad seems to be the definition of helicopter parent. Whatever. Can’t see how the other players will like an 18 year old calling the shots.
  4. I was at the game this afternoon. The crowd didn’t look like 9,000 fans but for a 1:00 Monday game it was pretty full. Some good, open looks that weren’t knocked down looked to be some fatigue from the quick turnaround. Jak played one heck of a game. Our defense was suffocating, but when our lead in the 4th hit 24, the team seemed to let down and allowed some open 3’s from Illinois. As was mentioned by others, the final score was not indicative of the whipping Texas put on them. If we can play defense like that for an entire 4 quarters and get some open shots to fall, we have a chance to get to the final weekend.
  5. Somehow I don’t think that scenario would work out well for OU.
  6. What a slap in the face for a 1 seed to play that early in the afternoon. Not even the 6:00 time slot? Good grief.
  7. That subreddit is toxic. The majority hate Texas with a passion.
  8. It's funny how some are giving Texas very little chance of making it to the Final Four when Gottleib and her team have a very real possibility of losing to UConn.
  9. The women's college basketball subreddit thinks we have a chance of losing that game. No respect whatsoever.
  10. Committee might relish a rematch.
  11. In the live feed on Instagram with the team, Kyla is seated in front wearing a boot. 🙁
  12. Don’t sleep on Crump. She’s good.
  13. Who’s to say UConn wouldn’t be a one seed and USC the first two seed, with us a one seed of course. UConn is number one in net rankings this week I believe, with USC at 6th.
  14. Disappointed to see the voting coaches followed the AP’s lead. They moved us down to 5th as well. I guess they fell victim to recency bias, too. Hopefully, the selection committee won’t. Coaches Poll
  15. Just watched some highlights of the game yesterday (I know I'm a glutton for punishment), and it still amazes me how the team was always a step slow on defense. Tired legs that maybe could've been managed better the previous 2 games, but those were dog fights, so it's hard to say. Agree with others that playing zone might've helped. Befuddled how Rori could air ball so badly. Here's hoping Vic and his assistants study film and actually implement different strategies. Square peg and round hole won't get us past the Elite Eight.
  16. Yes, more Preston as well. It seems like Vic stuck with the older players during the tournament. Playing Preston more and allowing Lee to shoot would have saved some legs. As it is, Lee and Preston only played maybe 15 minutes per game. C’mon Vic. Use them more. Also, Vic teams have historically struggled against South Carolina. That may be in his head, too.
  17. Vic needs to allow Lee to shoot. She seems hesitant as if she doesn’t want to get benched. That would hopefully help our shooting woes a bit.
  18. That was the case just a bit ago. Close is not a great coach, but she makes USC’s coach look like a world beater
  19. The JuJus have UCLA’s number.
  20. Sorry, but I have a hard time believing LSU deserved to have 3 on the first team all SEC, not to mention the snubbing of our bigs. Ridiculous.
  21. Gottleib out coaching anybody says a lot about Cori Close.
