we shouldnt forget she is a freshman, and has shown dramatic improvement, but still will make freshman mistakes like traveling, so you will see flashes of being great, but you also might see a freshman too.. I'm predicting she is the next Imani Lewis or even more topside the kid from Michigan, a...

I like how we match up against NC. they are playing like us, putting an undersized Utsby in the 5 spot with 4 guards. That should play into our strength as well when we go with Kadi at the 5... But we can also go with Kadi at the 4 and Michauex at the 5, we dont lose any athleticism on the...

They have to play up tempo, we have to get our guards in space to have success. When you have no inside scoring, it is hard to be effective in half court - although I'm see a great future for Alana M, she reminds me of Imani Lewis former badger. Plus Kadi, is better in the open floor and it...

what happened to Maryland, I had them as my sleeper to win it all.

This team has shooters but rarely they get the ball at the right time, the timing is off and that is a function of a pass first PG vs an open floor take it to the basket PG. Jazz is a dynamic player, but the more success she has in a game the more room the coaches give her to make not so good...

the big ten is starting to shake out a little so far and I see the gophers trying to inch into that top half. I think Michigan, Mich St and Ohio state are beatable, I think Iowa relies on Clark to much, the teams that are really good are Maryland and Indiana. I think both could be final 4...

Smith seems like a good kid, but I don't think she as good as defender as everybody is saying, I would say her physical body type is to her advantage, but she has average quickness at best. I would take a person like Winters with her slender build and long arms and turn her into a lock down...

they are missing their 2nd best player overseas for some time, she will be back and they have a promising freshman plus the kid from Beaver Dam will be ready to go probably in a few weeks, but your right new coach, freshman players = losses.

first you have to post up to be looked at. I dont think that is why we brought Baily in and quite frankly I'm not sure Klarke knows how to post up yet. I do think we could have a set play to just go inside even though we wont score off of it to keep the defense guessing. Baily did lock her...

MN defense was really good today, they put pressure on the ball and they made it difficult for GW to get looks. the 4th was a little sloppy, but with that kind of lead, playing on short rest, down a person, the coaches can live with that.

Its ok to have an opinion, but this isnt HS or AAU any more. A lot of good HS players struggle with the speed and details of the game at the next level, I'm guessing there have been some notable deficiencies in her game that the coaches see in practice and it will take time for her to work...

The reason why the mid majors like Drake, SDSU and GB have historically been good is they go out and get high IQ basketball players that may have been a little undersized at a power 5, but when you put them all on the floor their IQ can offset potential. Potential has be developed to take it to...

You have to give Jacksonville credit, that wasn't a 5 win team of last year, those were some solid transfers they brought in. Power5 schools win games like this because they are longer, more athletic, stronger, bigger etc and even though that was us we did nothing to disrupt J'ville offense, in...

To go through a game like that and not make adjustments is disappointing.. Jacksonville controlled the tempo from the opening minute, its no secret, get MN in a half court game because we put to much on the PG every time down the floor. We could of tried a half court trap with Kadi, we could...

We are not going to lose to Drake... Their head coach, who I thought was a top 5 coach is now at Oklahoma, and they have nice players, but I feel the first year after a coach leaves has some bumps

The reality is these kids & parents need to understand the level they have chosen to play at. I will say if 2-3 of these kids/parents on the team currently would of been open to constructive feedback in AAU, they would realize this level isn't right for them, if playing significant minutes was...

NuNu Agara off the board to Stanford

I think the Gophers take that next step this year as long as they remain healthy. OUr guards bring another year of experience and are ready to lead, our bench got deeper, Kadi has another year under her, got some inside help with a grad transfer, got another shooter to complement Hubbard and...

Not sold on Hubbard playing enough minutes to get 20 shots in any one game...

Costa Rica was like a lower level AAU team or HS team if that.
