Non-Lady Vol Basketball News 2024-25

I’m excited to watch. Do believe it will be a 15-20 pt victory for you all. Suspect Duke will have problems guarding inside. Just not enough size. Also won’t be able to score much in the paint. Dodson is athletic but she cannot score over either Boston or Cardoso.

Duke will need to hit at least 12 3 to make it a good game is my take.

Maya Dodson plays Notre Dame. Duke's best post player is 6'5 Jade Williams and she's very similar to UConn's ONO.

My bad! Same applies Williams is even less of a factor than Dodson would be lol

 

[VolBall09]

Going to be a very long night for Duke if some shots don’t start to fall.

First 5 minutes the glaring deficit is their inside play. Williams is banging defensively but a total non-factor on offense. Mostly running a 5 out motion look and taking bad 3s. Not getting very good looks so far.

 

[VolBall09]

Duke getting spanked at the moment. Not applying any pressure to SC defensively. Not getting back, not boxing out. Minimal effort first few minutes. Kara is about to light them up.

Somebody wake me up when this slog fest is over.

 

[VolBall09]

Muffet’s analysis of Duke was right on the money. Potential is there, but their guards are going to have to want it offensively.

Duke out rebounded 24-8 in first half, they are not ready for prime time yet.

Duke is getting no home cooking.

42-31 headed to the fourth qtr.

 

[NoBackBoard]

SC pretty patient on the offensive end.

LSU has a sixty burger working on Alcorn State, 97-33, two minutes.

Hunnerd-36, final at Baton Rouge.

South Carolina played like absolute **** that 2nd half. Duke played well defensively but boy did we miss Henderson this game.

Yep! First 5 minutes were looking good. Then the offense hit a brick wall as the Duke defense picked up.

Sounds like Henderson will be available soon. If she still out for y’all’s Stanford game it makes an interesting matchup. Two forward playing the point.

Cooke for SC was 3 of 17 overall, 1 of 9 from 3. Terrible shooting game. Against a better opponent, she could have shot SC to a loss.

Has been known to do that now and then

Don’t pretend to be a UT fan. You’re clearly a UCONN troll. The disclosure literally said it was a pre-existing, previously undisclosed tear. Which means she’s been playing on it, and that’s the point.

From the Hartford Courant article.

"The operation repaired the anterior tibial plateau fracture and a previously unannounced lateral meniscus tear that Bueckers sustained during UConn’s win against Notre Dame on Dec. 5."

The fracture and the tear happened at the same time.

UGA versus NCSU tonight, should tell us more about the dawgs this season.

 

[gule]

go Dawgs!

UGA versus NCSU tonight, should tell us more about the dawgs this season.

I think they are going to get beatdown. NCState has been getting better and better every game since the SC loss. Diamond Johnson is a stud.

 

[Rickster]

I expect NCSU will school them as well.
