Kristy Curry is a very good coach. Davis is freaking unconscious. Use it all up tonight Bama.

I think Joni Taylor is suffering from bad Karma for stealing Gary Blair's COY award last year.

Shouldn’t the karma fall on the folks who voted for her?

Definitely. A pox on all their houses.

Georgia has really been weird this year, and mostly disappointing. Also our game against them was the day the music died when Keyen went down and 18-1 started slipping away. Something hanging over them!

I read an article a while ago that explained that some great athletes can't coach the less than great. They have a fundamental misunderstanding of why a less than great player can't make the plays that were normal to the great player. Instead of designing a system for their players, they don't understand why their players can't succeed in their system. It's a system over personnel approach that is designed to fail.

Interesting. Kind of could explain the Comets big 3 in their coaching careers.

Perhaps you meant "immeasurable" rather than "unmeasureable". Your use of unmeasureable adds nothing to bolster your argument of Boston's value to the team.

Btw, here's the difference:
"Unmeasurable: refers to something that can't be measured, and this could be due to any number of reasons.
Immeasurable: also refers to something that can't be measured, but for one reason, size. The
immenseness or boundlessness of something makes it impossible to measure."

Unmeasurable is defined as not able to be measured objectively. Boston's intimidation factor certainly qualifies.

The difference between the two terms is that "unmeasureable" can't be measured because of unknown factors. It could be that those factors were too small to be measured.
"Immeasurable" , by definition, can't be measured because those factors are too great. No need for you to come to the aid of your fellow chicken. It's simple, they chose the less accurate word.

Alabama looking stellar against Georgia. They are doing to them what they did to us: Drive right past the defenders for easy layups. They are up by 17 with under 5 minutes left. Amazing given they had to play yesterday unlike UGA. We can hope they are worn out by our game.

It’s a terrific strategy if you have quick, confident and proficient ball-handlers, especially against a team worrying about getting into foul trouble. Curry figures chances are far better that they’ll either score or get fouled than they are to get called for an offensive foul or turn it over.

For anyone looking for the VT/NC game, here in Florida I can’t get on ESPN App, but I can get on Bally Sports Florida which is included in my Directv Stream package. Bally Sports in other areas has it, too. 🙂

Virginia Tech likely going to lose today. Something wrong with Kitley’s shoulder and I don’t think she’s gonna be able to go. Not sure if she dislocated it and they put it back in or what. She went out and tried to return but was in tears after the first couple plays. Big blow for them. Was really hoping to see them knock UNC out today.

Charlie Turner Thorne has retired after 25 years. She was a great coach at Az State. With the right hire they could be very competitive again.

Seemed Charlie really didn’t like how the recruiting landscape was changing with NIL. Not surprised to see her stepping back at this time.

Six point game and that difference is offensive rebound putbacks. If Kitley can return Tech may have a chance. I don't see it otherwise she prevents a lot of those second chance points that NC is getting.

I don't like the NIL either especially the way it is designed with no cap on earnings. I like to see college athletes get money but some of the money is just ridiculous for these players. I saw where Tess Darby and Jordan Walker got a Nil deal with Krystal wonder what that is all the burgers and fries you can eat.
