Would you rather have another featurette on Paige?

I'll have another DiDi please?

Bet they're working on one right now about how great it was for Evina's career to leave TN and go to UConn. I'll take more DiDi and Paige.

 

[NoBackBoard]

Their offense is a thing of beauty, god I wish Tennessee could move the ball like that. If UConn keeps playing at this level, no one is beating them in the tournament...

Lol right because Iowa is such a great defensive team. And you’ll be quiet once UConn loses.

 

[Mr. Doo Wop]

UConn starters:
#1 Paige
#1 Christyn
#2 Evina
#4 ONO
Top 20 Edwards

At the end of the day, top talent matters.

Talent that is developed to it's potential. Tennessee had plenty of talent at times but Holly did not coach them up.

I hate to beat up Holly at this late date, but when I see kids who escaped play so well now I wonder exactly how she messed them up so badly. Did ya'll see the video recently of Mercedes Russell playing in Europe?? You won't believe it.

Hillmon is the player I wish Key would be.

DJ Carrington needs to spend a bit more time on her basketball skills, a bit less on the makeup, hair and lashes.

 

[Amb3096]

Baylor learning layups from the Tennessee coaches. Or maybe Michigan just has this weird superpower that forces their opponents to miss layups?

 

[Rooster1]

I'm unimpressed with their offense, but their defense is top notch.

This will be a 15+ point Baylor win. They will just wear Michigan down.

this didn’t age well

 

[Amb3096]

Baylor playing awful. Still want them to win and then make up for their sloppy play with a dominating beat down of UConn on Monday.

 

[Amb3096]

this didn’t age well

It didn't, but still think Baylor will win.

They sabatoges themselves with missed layups, turnovers and not guarding the perimeter when they had a chance to blow the game open.

 

[JustaChicken]

Baylor & Michigan in one hell of a dogfight now

 

[ocoandasoc]

Iowa beat Michigan by 22 in late February. I like UConn's chances on Monday.

 

[volnationnj]

Baylor Michigan in OT !

the “other” team had something to do with all of that.

Key could never play like that, she isn’t the athlete Hillman is.

 

[Vols4life]

Just now catching up after getting done with work....I would still take Clark over Paige....Iowa has to get better players around her

I might take Nalyssa Smith over both of them.

We'll see if she plays like that when she is a junior or senior. Saying she isn't a great athlete makes you look dumb.

Popeye sighting.

DJ Carrington needs to spend a bit more time on her basketball skills, a bit less on the makeup, hair and lashes.

This didn't age well. I will say that she should have let that ball go out of bounds.

 

[mike099]

If Baylor does not beat UConn in the elite 8, not sure if the teams left on their side of the bracket will beat UConn.

 

[Volfan2012]

The best teams I have seen are Maryland and Stanford in the play thus far. Maryland has looked best of all like a WNBA team scoring at will.

 

[Amb3096]

This didn't age well. I will say that she should have let that ball go out of bounds.

She played well in overtime, but doesn't change the fact that earlier in the game, she was turning the ball over/missing open layups, stopping to pout, and jogging down the court fixing her hair while her player nails a three.

Maybe Baylor players read this board too?

Probably not. TAMU would have a chance if they play well. They have the athletes to defend UConn and have the scorers to put scoreboard pressure on the Huskies.

Still think Maryland, Stanford and SC could beat them in the finals. But I'm hoping for Baylor. Would like to see that FF streak end. What's it been, like 12 years in a row now?
