WBB loses in OT
- Thread starter Cybercock
- Start date
I see Herbert Harrigan on played 5 minutes. She's been a big disappointment so far this season. She really needed to step up and it hasn't happen.
This team is pretty darn good when Jennings is in there, but she can only play about 20 minutes a game (it appears).
We really need some more bigs to give us quality minutes, and we only have so many options.

Transition year. Nothing more, nothing less. All great teams go through it. Even might UConn has been through it before.
Agreed. And I still think this can be a pretty decent team by the end of the season. Coach Staley will measure the success of this team by how well they do in the NCAA tournament. Not how well they did in the Vancouver Showcase.
I worry about a lot of things. The health of our women's basketball program under Coach Staley is not one of them. We'll be just fine in the long term.
Adjusting to #lifeafterA'ja..... gonna be tough. All of those close recruiting misses over the last two/three years is hurting us too. Hopefully things will gel and they'll right this ship this year.
Speaking of Drake, who remembers the Drake Duck-in Restaurant which was at Taylor and Millwood I believe?
Transition year for UConn is getting to the final 4 without winning it all
One positive is Tea Cooper had a monster game, She is stepping up. Just tough to find her any consistent help.
People are going to see that a transition year for them and a transition year for us are two different things.
We played Drake in the Sweet Sixteen in 2002; they have a very good program. We still should have beaten them, but it isn't a "bad" loss. This team will get much better over the course of the season. It takes time to mold so many newcomers and players with new roles into a cohesive team.
I've lived in Columbia for 46 years and knew they were there, but don't remember it. They've been on Main Street for many years. Darn good chicken sandwich.
When I was working at J.C. Penny's on Main back in '69, I had lunch there more than once. I also remember the Drive-in just before where Taylor meets Two Notch - probably the one Cybercock was referring to. I remember my family eating there when I was a kid.

Man he must be quite the basketball player. I thought he was just a rapper.
She deserves to be. But "positionless basketball" isn't going to be an example of what got her in there.

Keep in mind also, Coach Staley currently has the #1 recruiting class, with 3 of the top ten recruits and 4 of the top 13.
Yes, we are in transition and will become elite again based solely on shear talent, but I'm afraid it will take Dawn longer to fix her team because her teams have a history of multiple shooting droughts (3+ mins) and beingaverage at the free throw line.
Ive been to the one on main St near Taylor St. I think it's still there. Decent yardbird.
