10-4 overall. 8-1 with Rori and 7 in a row. 2-3 without her.

Next two Big 12 games should be easy: @ TCU and @ OSU. Then back to back ranked teams - KU and ISU at home. @ Tech, @ Baylor, OU, OSU. 

Would love to see a 7-1 January to build on this momentum since Rori came back. Would say 8-0 but we have 4 ranked teams and they’re both back to back (KU/ISU and then Baylor/OU) and I think we drop at least one of those.

F'n Gallagher-Iba - hate that place. Hopefully they will keep their prego's away from the court.

This is just not a good team. Vic needs to hit the portal this off-season hard.

We had big hopes but Rori getting hurt early, Jones being hurt, Moore now out for the year and Morris/Gonzales can’t seem to ever have a good game at the same time. They’re both streaky too and their defense is a work in progress
