Maryland is the exact type team we want in the Elite 8.

Offensive team that has zero clue how to handle physicality. 

Remember when they were the #1 offense or whatever in 2021?  And we upset them in the Sweet 16.  Vic thrives against coaches like Brenda

When Jak doesn't try to do too much she is a real asset with that length. I do believe she's finally getting better.

I owe her a public apology.....

 

Jak has value when she stops doing dumb shit on the offensive end.

She's long and can guard other teams best wings. She's also good on the boards. Jak's problem is sometimes she thinks she's Kobe Bryant on the offensive end.

Yeah, you could see Vic telling Jak early in the game "get into her body. She doesn't know what to do."

Maryland doesn't know what to do when you get physical with them.

So accurate. She needed to kick that rebound out to Lee, she as wide open and calling for it. But Jak has never met a shot she didn’t like

Damn how good is South Carolina 

Elite. Texas is just a tier below, but really can’t wait to see us at home versus them

tier 1: UCLA, SoCar, ND

tier 2: UConn, Texas, USC

I don’t trust LSU

They've lost 1 game at home in 5 seasons.

That's why I didn't overreact to that game. Playing them at home isn't indicative of anything. They're almost impossible to beat at home. We won't play teams like ND or South Carolina on the road in the NCAA tournament.

Of course not. First 2 at home and then we get to play in Spokane bc you know that’s where they will send us

I honestly believe we will do better at home and make that a game

Oldacre is damn cheat code.

why is Carlton’s game not working in the SEC?

 

Oldacre plays like she hates everyone and she just there so her parents won’t say nothing about her having a girlfriend

Carlton is an undersized freshman interior player. I think that takes a little longer to get used to the physicality of SEC post players.

I'm betting Crooks is going to transfer after this year. She's never going to win anything at Iowa State.

With Jones graduating, we will have a need at the 5 but not sure it's a fit as Crooks and Oldacre are pretty similar. Seems like we need a more athletic big if we hit the portal.

Ayoka Lee out indefinitely with a leg injury.  Chronic at this point, which is why I don’t think Abbie is ever going to play 

Somehow Lauren Betts is a big woman that can stay healthy while dominating the paint. If she ever gets injured, UCLA would look a lot different/worse.

Next year I'd gladly trade two inches of Taylor's height for an extra dose of athleticism in her replacement. She can only dominate when she's the tallest player on the court, and even then it's usually a struggle. In that sense, she's much like a female Shedrick. Nothing personal against either player, just reality. It's the No. 1 roster issue both the women and men face this season.
