Boston was National player of the week but not her own conference. They gave that honor to two other players, which is fine. The numbers were much in Boston's favor however...:

Blackwell 27MPG/ 13-21 (36 pts) / 15.5 rebounds/ 1.5 AST/ 3.5 TO / .5 STL / 0 BLK

Coulibaly 38 MPG/ 19-28 (48 pts)/ 6.5 rebounds/ 1.5 AST/ 4.5 TO/ 3 STL /1.5 BLK

Boston 23 MPG/ 22-24 (50 pts)/ 15.5 rebounds/ 1.5 AST/ 0 TO/ 1 STL / 3.5 BLK

note*: I did not run those numbers, they were done by a poster on Gamecockcentral's fgf forum/thread on their WBB team (free forum)

Difference being Saban is still winning nattys on the regular. Been awhile for Geno. He just doesn't seem to be enjoying it anymore to me.

Geno was a young and hungry coach when he began his dynasty. He lived and breathed coaching. After 11 National championships, it is understandable his universe has expanded. The man is beginning to reap some of the rewards of his achievements as he gets older. He has several interests now, including his own Label wine business. I don't judge anyone living their life, and he is included especially because of his success. It was hard earned.

But yes, he is different now than when he was in the middle of that run of excellence and just lately, maybe the past 2-3 years now, we can see some of the effects of that which when coupled with the expansion of the sport and deeper talent pools has brought some parity to the game.

UConn won 4 out of 5 championships from 1999-2004. Then didn't win for 4 years.

They went Sweet Sixteen, Elite Eight, Elite Eight and Final Four.

Then they won four straight during the Stewart years.

Now they haven't won in four years but they went to the final four every time.

He keeps recruiting at the highest level. I wouldn't count on that championship drought lasting.

All facts except for the last sentence.

Can we please stop sexualizing a teenager?

I’m impressed with her 19 3s. I wonder if she is related to Kelly Kohn? She was a blonde headed deadeye shooter at KU back in the day. Believe she had a sister that could really shoot it as well.

If it really bothered me, I’d check in with the staff and photographers @womenshoopz. Perfect makeup, hair placement on jersey, jersey pose, raised leg…

you can watch Kohn shots on twitter. I would say she wasn't guarded any tighter than players in a shoot around . no defense

That’s how it was when Jaden Newman made 17. She was just dribbling around and then shooting an open 3 over and over. Wasn’t that thrilling.

When Greenwell made 16 I think it may have been in a state playoff game and was actually a competitive game.

Westbrook had two assists. Problem is, everyone else had 0. Ball is getting stuck in her hands bad. Geno gonna have to make Williams run the point

Already made two passes that caused other players to incur turnovers though. Same she used to do to our bigs. Bueckers has that innate availing to hit a player perfectly and when they’re expecting it. Evina makes some beautiful passes but they’re so flashy the other player isn’t ready at all.
