2021-2022 WBB Team
- Thread starter Cocky 45
- Start date
Yes but I don't think that was intentional, she got caught under the goal and the outstretched arms of Tamari Key. What she did yesterday was Moses Malone like and she got the foul.
Yep — she was definitely surrounded by long Tennessee arms and bodies. She won that battle.
Department confirmed to the Tribune that three of those players, Blackwell, Dorroh and Travis, were cited for alleged possession of marijuana .

Seriously!!!
And just like last time her teammates take down another Top 25 team without her

Mizzou women on NCAA Tournament bubble after Kentucky loss as 4 players miss for violation of standards
What should've been an evenly matched game saw Kentucky hold an advantage from the start.

Destanniiiii
Another great team win. Beal had double digit points for the first time all season. Boston pushes the streak to 21. I don't why Henny did not try to get a double double. Good contribution by Grissett. And thank God we have depth because Saxton had 4 fouls today not to mention she fouled out of the previous game.
I knew Ole Miss would have a much better game this time around. Great effort - very enjoyable game.
42 rebounds, 8 turn overs. We'll never be good at the line (9-15) but, in close games it will hurt.
On to March!!!

From looking at the standing it looks like South Carolina will play the winner between Arkansas/Missouri matchup. This is just a guess. Anyway, I wish the game was in the evening instead of noon.
While i do understand the seedings on this bracket as it protects the numbers 1 and two seeds from playing any team above a 7 seed, it seems odd that there is no possibility for either the one or two seed will play any team that has had to play two games by then
Just win.
Kelly Rae Finley has her interim tag removed and is named Head Coach of Florida WBB…& rightfully so.
About time!! Don't know what they will look like next year with Smith gone but, she has enough material (20+ wins, AP Top 25 ranking) to get transfers and recruits in the door.

Projected for now but I highly doubt UConn doesn't end up in Bridgeport.
I think it was last night that the final top 16 was listed. What I calculated for the Greensboro is
1. South Carolina
2. Michigan
3. Maryland
4. Oklahoma
That would be a very favorable top four in our region...Oklahoma is way undersized. They would have 0 answers for Boston and Cordoso on the court at the same time...frankly Boston with four guards would probably be overwhelming to them. We've already faced Maryland and won. IMO a rematch would be the hardest challenge of the listed teams but I think it would end in a similar outcome. Michigan is like a mini version of us. They have similar pieces but we have more depth, size and athleticism. Naz Hillmon would get her points but I think we would shut down everyone else in a low scoring game.
That wasn't the "final top 16.: that will be done on selection day - after the conference tournaments play out.
Big Ten and Big 12 tournaments may cause - well - "BIG" - re-ranking,
Maryland was still a very rough game for us I think they've gotten better. They are imo one of the sleeper teams for the final four. Total agree on Michigan, they live and die on Naz Hilmon whose a monster but I think our post play can handle her.
Virginia Cavaliers fired their basketball coach. Will they go after Coach Staley or Coach law?
I absolutely don't want Coach Law leaving the program. She leveled up the program and want to keep it going. I think Law leaving would be devastating in our effort to continue challenge UConn.
Probably true but I’m not an insider, why is she so important to beating UConn?
Recruiting classes. It's no surprise that our recruiting has went up to elite status and Tennessee has faltered since she joined the staff. Geno is still bringing in top talent consistently and if there's a noticeable difference in talent we will likely be less competitive than them, like when our series first started. We can probably still do well without her but we're basically almost guaranteed to be always in the national championship conversation with both Law and Dawn together.
Law has been a head coach. She had a stent with the Globetrotters. SC is home. Family from Florence. I think she is pretty happy where she is.
I'm well aware that she has. And just because she's home I doubt she's a been there done that type of person. Like you I think she's happy as well, but I won't be surprised if she takes a head job one day.
Gamekem is right about her recruiting prowess. If you watch the 2019 to 2021 players introductory tapes, they all call Law's name as one of the reasons why they chose SC.
Kentucky is red hot. The last time they lost was on 10 February and that was against South Carolina.
Agree. I also hope Zia Cooke shows up today. She has been a head scratcher this year. Elite at times and non-existent at others. The fact that she didn't play in the 4th yesterday says a lot about Dawn's level of frustration with her.
We know that Kentucky can't stop our bigs -- I feel like that's a given. This will only be a close game if Kentucky stays hot from the 3 or if we become turnover prone.
It will be a good game. If the ladies play like they did against Ole Miss - Tucky has a chance.
Congrats to Ole Miss as well. From going 0-16 two years ago to be sitting where they are now is good for the SEC. What they will look like without Austin time will tell

What I've been seeing from Zia all season long and especially yesterday is selfishness. That's why she's so awful this year. Teammates are open but she wants it all. Whether it's for stats, awards, pat on the shoulder etc but she's not team oriented at all. She can't take that mind set into the NCAA at all

Yet, one of their bigs scored 27 points with 9 rebounds.
Our guards are the problem. We need one more consistent shooter that can get 40% of her shots with regularity. Destani is minimally there. Zia isn't close.
And Saniya? The shooting percentage is a head scratcher from the player who led the nation in scoring as a hs senior.

Her teammates are open because no one guards Brea and Saxton 10 feet from the basket. lol, They regularly pass those shots up. Amihere shot an air ball from 10 feet away. Zia struggled yesterday, especially at the line, but her problem isn't selfishness. She asked to make things happen when the team can't get the ball inside. That doesn't help her shooting percentage. Sometimes what appears selfish is actually unselfish.
If you want to criticize someone, criticize Destanni for not looking for her shot more. She was 3 of 5 from behind the 3 point line. Who else did she expect to hit those shots? We aren't a great 3 point shooting team and she's, be far, our best long range shooter.
It's probably because she's too unselfish; she has a point guard's mentality. A big key to success in the tournament will be Henny looking for her shot more.
