    It was a great year. 35 wins. Forever to be known as “The Final Four team of 2025.” Thank you Vic and staff. Thank you ladies. Much appreciated.

Beat LSU at home and a #1 seed has to be close to locked up. 

May already be, to be honest. This would be our 10th Q1 win 

LOL a review of an oob for a 22pt spread with under 2 to play. 

Enjoy watching this team play. Even when they struggle they are still in the game playing solid defense .

Texas wins 67-49. Held a top 10 team under 50

Off tomorrow, LSU prep Saturday. 

big game (again) Sunday! 

I already know the game Sunday is going to be a complete ref show with Morrow, our bigs, and Mulkey acting like she does on the sideline. 

Hopefully, they don't ruin a good game. 

0 for Strack

14 for Amoore on an inefficient 5/16 

Held UK to 3-15 BTA.

+17 on the glass and 20 offensive boards

Such a Vic gameplan 

Booker is a monster. She will play in the W.

Hell to the yes. We are for real (kinda goes without saying, but still). We’re picking up momentum at the right time.

Decisive win. Amoore is a great player, but she was totally shut down both in scoring and assisting. Imagine what a rout this would have been has any Longhorn but Booker made shots from outside 10 feet.

A fully healthy Harmon and Preston, who now has 4 months of NCAA game experience, is a fantastic defensive duo. The lack of dropoff from Jones to Oldacre and Harmon to Preston is why Texas is a contender. 

I want a rematch with ND

This is a tough team to beat because we dominate on the boards and are one of the best teams in the country in terms of turnover margin.

We just get so many more possessions than other teams because of rebounds and turnovers. We controlled two top 10 teams and I don't think we even got spectacular games out of Harmon or Booker. Both can play much better.

I don't watch Texas a lot (or any college women's ball). I'm assuming she's playing a different role this season? Similar stats as last year but less assists and turnovers - more boards. Shooting #s are better

She ran point most of the year (as a freshman!!) when Rori went down with the ACL. She’s back to her natural SF position.  And she still took us to the Elite 8

Who do we have to give Smiley breaks next year?

TBD. They’ll pursue another big via the portal though. There shouldn’t be any issue landing one with all the positive press Vic is getting due to Oldacre’s development. If the pairing ends up being anything like Jones and Oldacre this season, this team will be even better next year.

Any chance we'll see any "twin towers" play packages?

Probably not. That’s so antiquated. Vic talks a lot about how basketball is moving to 4 guard lineups and how they’re more efficient than the traditional 3 guard, 1 forward, 1 post lineups

Yeah. Just having fond memories of Olajuwon/Sampson.

#1 UCLA vs #6 USC just started. When Watkins is hot, she’s unstoppable! Good game, on Peacock.

This is the game of transfers 

Betts, Barker, Iriafen, Gardiner, von Oelhoffen

And UCLA is in trouble, down 10 after 1

USC just keeps answering right back. Juju is so fun to watch! 

She is putting on a show! 

Oh oh here comes the Bruins. 4 point game 

Does USC winning jeopardize our 1 seed status?

Tough to say. Texas would still have 10 Q1 wins to USC’s 7

We’d need that LSU game to solidify our spot. 

Was 38-35 USC at half. 45-38 UCLA now

Not inconceivable in a special case, such as having to score a putback on an intentional FT miss. But as noted, seems unlikely otherwise. Probably a 3-second call just waiting to happen. 

This is not sustainable against most teams. 17 made FG - 12 are JuJu. A better defensive coach (cough, Vic) could figure out how to slow her down and force her teammates to put the ball in the hole. They are 5-28

Are we better off with ucla winning and pushing usc further back, vs usc winning and possibly jumping us while ucla stays ahead?

This game should be a selling point for Chavez.

Played almost an entire half with 4 guards and a center. 

If Chavez isn’t convinced that Texas is the place to be, she never will be….people in Lubbock are generally not fans of UT.  Hopefully, we get her to Austin.

And continues to be. What a player she is.

UCLA/USCw/USCe/Notre Dame/Texas are all fighting for a 1 seed. If USCw holds on and beats UCLA, its difficult to rank these teams 1 thru 5, and obviously #5 would be a 2 seed.

Come home to see an 18 point road win against a top 10 team.  Pretty pretty pretty good.

I dont know shit about shit so ridicule incoming … but make it make sense…. from a pOv….. why is Vic not the mens coach for about 7m a yr

I’d say our argument for the 1 seed is 10 Q1 wins (so far) and we can get as many as 12. We also have better losses - both of our losses are top 5 NET teams. USC lost to Iowa.

SoCar is still 1 in NET - it’s a better win that UCLA (5 in NET)

I dont know shit about shit so ridicule incoming … but make it make sense…. from a pOv….. why is Vic not the mens coach for about 7m a yr

It is like night and day and watching the effort, execution, and discipline of both squads. I don’t think our dudes could handle the accountability that comes with Vic.

Takeaways from watching USC/UCLA

- Janiah Barker would have thrived in Vic’s system

- Betts can be slowed down with a team with 2 pretty dominant bigs (oh what I know of a team like that!)

- Juju is all USC has. Her teammates defer to her so if you can slow her down a little, you force them to make plays. UCLA didn’t do that - they played more of a “let Juju get hers and force the other players to beat them” but Juju was able to beat UCLA on their own

- Close is still an abysmal coach. Horrible job protecting the ball and I think they had 4 or 5 shot clock violations 

- I don’t think Gottleib is much better. I’m not sure she will ever win a title, but she’d be one in a long line of meh coaches who couldn’t win it all with a #1 ranked class

- Juju has at least turned USC games into Lakers games - star power galore. Galen was rocking
