Yeah. Establishing Kiki should’ve been priority number 1 to start the game. Try getting Liatu King for ND in foul trouble.

Yes and ND doesn’t match up with Kiki very well I don’t think Koval can keep up with her and King is too small. She hasn’t gotten a single touch on the block that I’ve seen.

Only off oboards so far.

Niele Ivey lookin like a snack. Truly. Wow.

Agreed. She’s a gloried offensive rebounder so far for USC.

If she was being used properly, NDs entire frontline would be in foul trouble.

Gottlieb with no answers, this whole thread exists because she’s a bad coach. See first post I ever made lol.

 

[Volfan2012]

USC doesn't play inside out and someone will throw up a bad shot at any time. If they had some kind of game plan they would be winning this game. 13 turnovers and at least half their shots were shots that shouldn't have been taken.

 

[Volfan2012]

USC can still easily win this game, but if we get more of the same they will lose it. Not impressed with how they play. You have that big frontline Marshall and Iriafen and your not taking advantage of them. They could get Watkins the looks just by getting the ball inside drawing the double team and throwing it out. Sometimes you can get in to big a hurry and accomplish nothing.

 

[Volfan2012]

I wouldn't be a bit surprised if USC doesn't have the lead at the end of the third quarter. They wouldn't have to play a whole lot better to get it there.

Officials are helping them out allowing a lot of contact on the ball handlers for ND suddenly.

 

[VolBall09]

Watkins is way too casual, Hidalgo has knocked the ball away from her from behind about 8 times now. Her teammates need to talk to her as well.

USC not taking advantage of Liatu King being on the bench.

If USC loses, real discussions need to be had about Gottlieb.

She has never been a good coach. Truly. Worse than close in terms of doing less with more.

 

[Volfan2012]

To many missed layups by USC Iriafen not impressive today.

When I watch her, I don’t see that IT factor. Gotta have it especially when you have a lot of talented players.

Some on here wanted her to be hired at Tennessee.

Give me CKC everyday of the week. I know she hasn’t done anything at this level, but give me CKC.

May all the Watkins lovers take note.

This game has been intriguing. Great for the sport. Juju Watkins is a big-time player. She is playing hard and competing that’s what you ask for. USC is not a fundamentally sound team.
Hannah and Olivia have taken this game over. Coach Ivey has ND well coached.

 

[VolBall09]

Zero energy from USC the last couple minutes. They’re cooked and they know it. Just too many weapons for ND and too much execution from them.

Iriafen has not taken a shot at the rim in the second half since the first possession when she got blocked. That is coaching malfeasance.

 

[Volfan2012]

USC plays one on one terrible coached team. Notre Dame looks to have a big win on the road. USC certainly not the third best team in the country.

 

[volforlife10]

usc is just not very impressive.

They might not be top 3 in their conference if they keep this up.

UCLA, Maryland and Ohio State look better right now.

 

[LadyVol1908]

I’d hate to see a fully healthy ND team!

@DarkPhoenix you see your girls today?!

Top 10 roster top 50 play top 100 coaching.

I think even Iowa will toast them

First 5 minutes 12 seconds of the 4th, ND 14/USC 2

 

[Ladyvols4ever!]

I'd take Miles over Iriafen if I were the Sparks.

I was about to post this. Agreed!
