By way of adding context. We have numerous SC fans who post regularly here, which is fine and a couple of them are really great posters. But this is a LV site and we get a regular diet of how perfect Dawn Staley is yada, yada, yada. This obviously gets tiresome for LV fans. So, yes, we can admit she is a decent coach but we probably won’t be sending her a birthday card.

Again who is asking anyone to do so. For fans that get tired of hearing about her sure do like bringing her up. Not just by the SC fans. And especially saying she pulled the race card. Only ones that get upset by that are the ones that know it’s probably some truth to it. And with 2 Natties some might argue a lil bit better than decent.

You can tell Carly Thibault-DuDonis spent time on Vic Schaefers bench. Her team does not care that Indiana is the higher seed. They are flat getting after it and headed downhill, toward the basket. If you don’t get in front they are gonna shoot a layup and they are confident.

Fairfield gave Indiana a fight for two quarters but Indiana ended up blowing them out.

Just out of curiosity, is one of the ref's from the Wisc GB - Lady Vols game also ref'ing the UTC - NCState game? Interestingly, ESPN game stats on the latter game only name 2 refs. Did they need a replacement?

They are quite good. Bigs inside and some solid players who can shoot the 3 ball. Five players avg double figures scoring. Maybe not as fast, quick and athletic as some of the teams that caused us issues during the season, but they play pretty good D. Noted they had 2 first team All ACC and one second teamer. Noted they only lost at home this season to VaTech and ND. We get to see Mimi Collins again (always like her game, sorry she departed LV's)

Add in playing on their home court and their crowd and it will take an intelligent, strong effort to beat them on their home court.

WaTCH Stanford got more than one true center
But Crooks 40 Points 90 FG% WASN'T that a first?
Or if that's the right Player

90% FG on 40 Points is fine shoting for a volume shooter

No it’s incredible. Astounding even. Loveeeee Crooks! Cant teach BULK AND SIZE. Also helps she has sweet touch. (Y I pray we get Merkle)

Not even volume thats efficiency and terrible coaching by Freese to allow it. Even without a post

Another 6/11 close game, w possible upset. Arizona leading Syracuse 45-39 midway 3rd qtr.

Would be funny if yet another often mentioned Kellie replacement, Leggit-Jack, gets sent home early.

I love smesko from FGCU but his style wouldn’t fly in the SEC… maybe they want OUs coach who we beat?

Let me lowkey defend Coach HLJ for a second. She’s only on year 2 of Syracuse but the school is already WAY improved over what they were like before her (also the overall culture is MUCH improved). I definitely think it will be interesting to see if she can keep building the program back up successfully. I think she’s someone to keep an eye on but she needs to prove it a little more for sure.
