    B1G & SEC Officially Against CFB Fans

    Fan support and coach competence as the determining criteria for relegation? Fan support can be measured in several different ways and competence of the coach is mostly subjective.

    ***CC22 and the Fever mega thread***

    The Fever have deficiencies for sure. They also have several more months, almost a hundred or so more practices and 38 more games on the schedule. Improvements will happen or changes will be made; the situation is dynamic not static. They have the scorers we know that. Too much doom and gloom...

    5 Fever players had season ending injuries last year - Clark, Cunningham, Sydney Colson, Aari McDonald, and Chloe Bibby. White got the team within one game of the WNBA finals with a depleted regular roster and a number of emergency replacement players They will be fine if they can stay...

    This Fever roster is easily a playoff team absent multiple key injuries. We’ll see what kind of post-season run they make. Pretty good shot to make the finals (without major injuries)IMO.

    I suppose I’m beating a dead horse already but the Fever have played less than 25% of their regular season schedule. Current frustration notwithstanding, we won’t know how the season goes for the Fever and Caitlin Clark until late September or, more likely, October - more than 4 months from...

    The primary job of a head coach is not to make players on the team happy. I’m sure CC is frustrated, other Fever players as well, along with coach White (if the team huddle *** chewings are any indication). The coaches and players need to figure it out. The good news is they have plenty of...

    The conspiracy theorists will not let it die … Don’t pay attention to what they say. White is evil; they hate each other; White is doing everything in her power to limit Clark; Clark can’t wait to leave Indy, blah blah blah ….

    Your lengthy reply does not in any way support your earlier claim that White is “doing everything in her power” to “leash” Clark. That claim is patently false.

    Oh the drama! If White was “doing everything in her power to leash Clark” then she wouldn’t start Clark because that is certainly within her power, or play Clark even less minutes - also within her power. Ridiculous assertion. Also, loved the tabloid level “rumor” about Clark.

    I’ll more critically judge White’s coaching of this year’s team after a substantial portion of the season is completed, probably some time around Labor Day, final judgment after the season. We haven’t even reached the month of June yet. A.500 record in May is not cause to climb a high rise and...

    The calls to fire Stephanie White are hysterical nonsense. Problems? - yes, but more than enough time to iron things out. The WNBA playoffs begin 9/27 - the day after the 4-0 Iowa Hawkeyes defeat Michigan in football. Plenty of time Unlike Sides, White is a legend in Indiana as a prep and...

    New Podcast with Jan Jensen - Give it a listen

    I liked the Whiting comments. Sounds like JJ signed a defensive lockdown artist who can also score. Jensen sounded genuinely excited. Also quick to single out Stremlow as the player taking the biggest leap forward this Spring. Guard court could be stacked next season.

    ***CC22 and the Fever mega thread***

    I don’t know if fame is the goal but the players you mentioned definitely aim to limit or “shut down” CC. My guess is that the respective coaching staffs make those defensive assignments and challenge those players to make the stops. The Fever scouting report is no secret. In any event, I’m...
