well 11 is a little better than the 13-14 I expected before the regular season started

The program is getting a Mulligan from me this year, next year I expect better.

On a nice note: the team has a pretty good chance to advance in the B1G tourney.
That makes me feel good, but without a song to accompany that feeling until the win 😀

It's what he does. Surprised he did not merge my thread with his
replying just to bump this ahead of his post about tourny which his op , in thread he started, should have been put in this thread.
Never understod the need to start new threads on an issue that already is being discussed.

Christie Winter Scott has talked twice about RUs 55 defense. Does she think CVS is still here?

On the verge of blowing this one. Turning the ball over like crazy this quarter. Hope we can hold on.

Good job by the ladies, focusing in and finishing the job after Smikle's departure. Excellent pressure FT shooting.

Hopefully, the staff can figure a way to get better results against Illinois this time.

BTW,....WHY did they keep leaving Walsh open at the 3pt line?? Whew!

Any chance vs Illinois? They handled us pretty good this past week or do.
With our relentless hustle, we always have a chance. We just have to play smarter and somehow, move the ball as we all have been waiting for them to do. Got to get cleaner shots and knock em down. If we do that, we're in good shape.
Usually, the key is when someone along with Smikle can get it going(Kai, Awa, KB). We know what we're getting from Kaylene and Chyna.

CHYNA!!! OMG!!! Nas Hilmon 2.0 for real! And when you think about it, this is just the beginning for her.

A mulligan?! How about a letter of commendation? The coach was hired near the end of May and the team only has 8 players. I think they've done an amazing job this year.

Ladies deserve a lot of credit. Expectations were not very high given the hand they were dealt. I think a win in the B1G tournament was not something anyone expected, including me,

a letter of commendation is a great idea, but as far as I'm concerned I think forgetting the low bar that made this season so successful is something I'd like to forget.
Though believe your right that Coquese deserves recognition for the great job her and her assistants ( Tasha,Nikki & John) done this year .
Letter of commendation from the fanbase , sounds just right .
Along with my praising the players for their play which made the type of disastrous season I expected a much better one than that.

You seem to be wired in on the women's team, MADHAT. Do you see us picking up some quality players through the portal this year, or recruiting improving after this next year. Coach Coquese seems to be pretty dynamic and has the team giving its all.

very far from wired in, just try to follow the team from afar.
Not as far away as you 😄
I try to be an optimist but think the better portal talent will go elsewhere, but will get one or two that fit what CW has in store for program providing good depth.
HS talent needing a little development , not ready for prime time, will fill out next years recruiting crop.
But really your guess , or anyone's on recruiting ,will be as good as mine.
It's just nice to feel recruiting won't be a drag because no one wants to come, just a fix the program with those that fit Coach C's vision of what the program needs to reach the top again

You think I was far away before? I just got back from a month-long trip to the Antarctic!
