March 10, 20241 yr This imo is what’s gonna keep us from a championship. S.Carolina isn’t unbeatable but they can score an are athletic with a good big. Not just them but most SEC teams we will see next season We have to get better
March 10, 20241 yr Vic needs a dominate athletic big!! When he was on at Miss State he had a few come through there , and he did great work with Collier.
March 10, 20241 yr We don't have enough women willing to shoot. Almost like they're playing scared. Maybe Booker, Moore and Jones can get us over the hump.
March 10, 20241 yr I do not get what we worked on for the last week. Just passing it, no one moving or trying to shoot it Would like to see us go at Papawhatever and get her out of the game and force the freshman in or Jackson who has 4
March 10, 20241 yr 1 minute ago, Gut Wagon said: Much to the chagrin of the announcers, we're suddenly playing much better. Shooting the ball leads to good things
March 10, 20241 yr I would say Kansas is pretty lucky to only be down 11. We are 8/15 from the FT line and Shaylee has missed 2 or 3 threes she normally makes.

March 10, 20241 yr Tomorrow is an off day and we play Monday against the winner of KST/WV who play in the night cap
March 10, 20241 yr Texas pulls away late and wins 76-60 Win again on Monday and we are close to locking up a 1 seed.
March 10, 20241 yr Huge fourth quarter on offense after sputtering around forever. Just a grittier effort overall. Let's carry that positive swing into Monday.
March 10, 20241 yr Game effort by the girls from Ruston. Er Lawrence. Edited March 10, 20241 yr by Pato del Muerto
March 10, 20241 yr I think we want WV on Monday. We killed them in Morgantown No difference for NET - KSU 16, WV 21. Both Q1 regardless
March 10, 20241 yr It's a shame if Vic doesn't win a coach of the year award. We're #3 in NET and might be a #1 seed with the best 2-way guard in the country injured the entire conference season.
March 10, 20241 yr Good win. Kansas was peaking at the right time winning 9 of their last 10 games in the B12. Will be tons of K-State fans there on Monday, hopefully our platoon of inside players can keep Lee in check. Edited March 10, 20241 yr by TommysTinyTowels

Vic needs to figure out how WV forced 21 turnovers bc that’s all that kept them in the game. Did manage 7 more FTs than KSU
March 10, 20241 yr OT. Clark came up big and boy Nebraska really didn’t even try to win it on that final possession
March 10, 20241 yr Nebraska really had their chances but Iowa is going to hold On and win the B1G tournament and secure a 1 seed
March 10, 20241 yr 3 minutes ago, D3zii said: So it comes down to the Stanford / USC game plus us winning for #1 seed Yep. We want Stanford to win and then of course we need to win the Big 12 tournament.

It really seemed to me that Schaefer was insisting they work the ball inside for some reason. Maybe to slow the pace of the game and save their legs for Monday/Tuesday? Maybe to draw fouls on their non-athletic centers who -- once saddled with four fouls each -- really became irrelevant and enabled our girls to penetrate and hit short jumpers/layouts? I'm not sure why -- especially when it was Holle's 8-0 run with two threes to start the fourth quarter that finally blew the game open. It was too bad West Virginia couldn't hold on -- the T-Mobile Center was PACKED with Kansas State fans. It's definitely going to be a "road game" tomorrow, especially with Iowa State and OU fans rooting against Texas.
March 10, 20241 yr USC up by 9 at half against Stanford. Stanford has a #1 seed locked so they aren't playing their best

We are going to have to win the Big 12 tournament and hope our higher NET keeps us ahead of USC. Otherwise I think we are #5

Otherwise I think we are #5 Even if NET slightly favors us, this result gives the committee the #1 seeds they wanted all along. Undefeated USCe, Tara Vandeveer, Hollywood JuJu, and Caitlyn Clark. Texas is out of the conversation if Stanford loses this one against USCe
March 10, 20241 yr I guess I’m naive, but if we win the Big 12 tournament we will have 4 losses. USC and Stanford will each have 5 losses. That should be enough for a one seed. How does it square the circle if both Stanford and USC are one seeds?
March 10, 20241 yr 7 minutes ago, D3zii said: Welp guess we gotta do it as a #2 There’s functionally not much difference between between #4 overall and #5 overall.

They made it clear that the #1 NET was going to get 2 if UCLA or USC won the PAC tournament

As it turned out, Booker, Moore and Jones did get us over the top, along with that key outburst by Holle. I'm hoping Gonzales can find her shot and the confidence to take it, as that would really help open up the floor against future opponents. We know we're heavily dependent on Booker to create. She's obviously been amazing, but in Harmon's absence we're just one rolled ankle or foul trouble away from having no reliable initiator on offense. What we could do about that I'm not sure, but getting more from Gonzales really would help.
March 11, 20241 yr Vic was interviewed during the KSU-WV game and said something like “we'll work on 3-point shooting in the summer, but, it's too late to change things this late in the season” We are winning with inside and Booker’s pull-up game so I dont see him going away from that in game #33

And that's a big if since it's basically a home game for the cats. Shaylee dropping some 3's would do wonders to help open the inside for Taylor, Aliyah and Deyona.

Though those 3 losses are by a combined 9 points. It’s not like we got blown out in any of them
March 11, 20241 yr As good as our recruiting class is, no one in it is what you'd call a long-range bomber. I really hope we can find one the portal, because every serious contender has to make 3s.

And I know who I think based on playing time
March 11, 20241 yr Sounds like the expectation is to have rori for 2 more seasons now, so that might have impacted the roster planning at the guard spot.
March 11, 20241 yr Just now, Pato del Muerto said: Sounds like the expectation is to have rori for 2 more seasons now, so that might have impacted the roster planning at the guard spot. If no one leaves next year, we have: COVID SR: Holle Jones Gaston SR: (both have extra seasons due to medical RS) Moore Harmon JR: Jak Graves Muhammad Codio SO: Boutilier Booker Maul Herron FR: Carlton Lee Preston That puts us at 16 - Graves will probably go off scholarship (we had an open one so she got it for this year), so that knocks us to the max of 15. We will need attrition if we want to find a 3 point shooter in the portal.
March 11, 20241 yr I can see where a shooter is what’s missing, but that would be a strong team with all of the experienced upper classmen plus booker.
