Sounds like Amihere is back at practice but won't play tomorrow. Don't expect foul trouble to be an issue for our bigs against A&M. They rely mostly on the perimeter shot.
2021-2022 WBB Team
- Thread starter Cocky 45
- Start date
Dawn confirmed in her media availability that Amihere would not play. Sounds like everyone else is good to go as of today.
Dawn and Frank both subscribe to the same school of motivation. It obviously works.
Dawn doesn't have an SEC past as Frank did with the ACC. And her players don't act like malcontents on the court either.

So Amihere is not out because of Covid. She is wearing an E-stim corset for either back or core problems
A small gesture (by Aliyah), but the expression on your daughter’s face easily told how big that was to her! So sweet!
I just wanted to clarify it's not my daughter, but thought it was sweet moment that was making it rounds online.
The team responded to the girl in the video as well. Very much a class act.

As a ‘girl Dad’ I LOVE all of this!!!
What great role models for future generations. Aliyah, Saniya and Dawn didn't have to take the time but they did. Nothing but respect, admiration and support for them.
The last game she played was pretty bad, especially on the offensive end, I don't know what to think.
She seems slow on defense and outa sink on offense. It may be the injury that's taking it's toll.
Couple of things
Lele made it back to the court 6 weeks ahead of schedule. She busted her ass in rehab and her body shows the effort. She is thinner than I have ever seen her.
That said you can still see her flexibility is still lagging, she can’t change direction like she use to quite yet. I believe that is part of why she is slow on D. Lele was never cat quick to begin with..
On O she made her living on rebounds, slashing to the basket and an uncanny ability to release early and beat people down the court.
Well this year our fast break points are pretty much turnover driven. Every team has three players moving backwards as soon as their shot goes up. Slashing to the basket again her flexibility is not there yet. Where she looks most out of sync to me is at the line. Last year she was very reliable at the line this year not so much
They are without Barnum in the post at present and that shows down low. They play a three player rotation. Wolfenbarger 6’5” a thin freshman playing out of position, Ellis 6’3 again a thin freshman from single A HS in Okla. Not a center. And Oberg who has been a career end of the bench player. Key and UT just overwhelmed them in the paint.
Ramirez is trouble great streak 3 shooter. We recruited her hard out of HS and again when she transferred.
Daniels at point is playing excellent ball, scoring and passing.
Goforth is a good scorer and tough as nails. Transfer from Ore. St. she is about the only that played well against us in the tourney last year.
Just a pay attention note on Oregon
This is a team we thrashed in the battle for Atlantis. They beat #7 Arizona this weekend in OT.
When we played them they had three starters out with injuries
PaoPao who scored 24 against Ariz. and played brilliant at point
6’5” forward Sybally who also put up 24 and rebounded well
Rogers PAC12 DPOY last year who totally shut down Arizona’s leading scorer.
This is an Elite 8 team with a 9-5 record due to injuries. Can they do enough to get in the top 16? Maybe not, but whoever draws them in their pod is screwed.
We play them at full strength and it’s a fourth quarter game

Looking forward to the Oregon and UConn game on Monday.
Thanks, I had forgotten that game was tomorrow. I think Oregon wins and does so by +10
This game will truly tell where UConn is at now without Paige. You really can't tell by those Big East blowouts. Also, it might give a glimpse into our game with UConn coming up.
PaoPao and Sybally will be the best players on the floor. If they played for UCONN they would be touted as the best duo in America.
I like Goforth, but she was surprisingly slow in transition against Vandy. We need to push the pace against them.
Look like we now know that at least Amihere, Wesolek, Cardoso, Lele and Rivers have made the trip.
So the missing player is either Hall, Littleton, Thompson, Feagin or Russell. So I think our prep for this game probably doesn't change much regardless whoever among them is out.

Guys, I think it is Amihere. She was wearing an E-Stim device around her waist during the A&M.
That would indicate back or core issues. Always tricky
