Caitlin Clark declared war on Australia it was close until she switched into a different gear

At this point nothing that Caitlin Clark does can surprise me. She wore the Superwoman cape time and time again for Iowa last year. Just an uncanny ability to find another gear.

Citron, Betts, and Verhulst also looking impressive to me.

How did this kid’s career get so far off track? I really hope she is happy at Ark PB but she could do so much better.

I keep wondering about her knee ? Did it ever heal properly? She was just a sub at aTm , and I didn’t see the speed she had at UT her freshman year ….. For her to leave aTm ……
there must have been a discussion of some sort ? 🤷‍♂️

She has had some tweets which really make you scratch your head if you get my drift.

I think Amihere will be the most improved player in the SEC. her play in the Americup and Olympics support that. She’s now healthy and playing under control and her star looks like it’s rising again.

You cant be the most improved if your playing time is limited and with the number of post players they have, all of their P.T. will be limited. J.S. Adding Cardoso to go along with Boston and Saxton its gonna be tough to find many more minutes Amihere. With that said, they will also have to sit the freshman Sania Feagin as well. Some 5-star athletes don't handle that well and the last thing Dawn wants is the transfer portal to get busy with players leaving.

Sure you can! She could easily average more points in the same amount of playing time she got last season which was about 17 mpg. Boston or Cardoso minutes will have no bearing on her other than the fact that she won’t play the 5 as much anymore with Cardoso. Her play this summer against professional players showed me that she will reach the next level in her game this year and will be really improved. I highly doubt she’ll get less minutes this year if her play keeps trending upward. She’s going to be a tough matchup for anyone.

I`m a TN fan but i keep it real and call it like it is. The proof is in the pudding when it comes to this SC team it`s loaded and will be very tough to beat in the SEC this year. For a team to beat them in the SEC this year will need to matched them position by position i think. Key can hold her own against a post in the country and her defensive ability will keep TN in a lot of games.

They should have been unbeatable last year in the SEC and still lost 2 games. Anyone in the SEC can lose on any given night if they don't play their best basketball. SEC championships come down to consistency every day!

And Dak1219: You are 100% correct in your post, LSU, GA, Ole Miss, Miss ST, KY, A&M, will be in the mix. Mizzou will find a way to stay it the hunt i think.

Eh, idk….they’ve reloaded TREMENDOUSLY! That new class AND Cardosa will make them TOUGHER than last year.

I have faith in our girls though! Next year should be exciting but I have a feeling it’s South Carolina, Connecticut, Stanford and everyone else.

I think folks thought it would be impossible to beat them last year, but we did.
