We moved up a spot in the RPI after winning (#28).

We still have 2 good games left - RPI #2 Baylor (road) and RPI #10 ISU (home).  

We currently have 1 top-30 RPI win (@ ISU).  TCU makes it 2 top-50 wins.  Otherwise, what a shitty resume we have for a 20-5 team.   2 top 50 wins but also three losses to teams in the 50-100 rankings (KSU, Tenn, WV).  The other 2 losses are obviously to top 10 teams (Baylor and Miss St). 

  •  Win out in all games except Baylor in reg. season and conf. tournament to finish 26-7 - most likely a 5 seed, maybe 6 depending on how it shakes up (we'd need to hope we get ISU or TCU once more in the Big 12 tournament for an RPI boost)
  •  Win out in all games except Baylor BUT split with them (either road game or conf. tournament) to finish 27-6 - could slide into the last #4 seed as long as Baylor is not the #1 overall (because then you're looking at a 1 vs. 4 Sweet 16 game versus Baylor for the 4th matchup of the season - blah)
  •  Win out period to finish 28-5 - maybe work our way to a #3 seed (and monkeys might fly out of my ass, we ain't winning out by beating Baylor twice)

Really looks like we'll be on the road for NCAAT play.  Hopefully somewhere not too far - last Bracketology had us in Iowa City BUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT there's an off-chance we could end up hosting as a non-top 4 - if matched up in SC's regional, they currently cannot host due to the men's tournament (building conflict).  The #6 seed would host unless SC can find a suitable venue within 50 miles AND they have to cover the extra costs.

  • Yeah maybe just a little naive...  Texas Women's Basketball has some BIG political hurdles that CDC will have to overcome to get rid of Karen.  Plonsky moving to the side was one of CDC's first c

  • How about lazy, out of shape for bigs. My description starts there.

    Or, she just wasn’t good enough to get minutes.

Also, fuck Hannah Gusters' mom.  Her daughter got ruled ineligible for transferring for athletic purposes, so she goes scorched Earth on Cathy? 

I know we're recruiting Gusters, but maybe we back off now.  Mom seems like a bitch. 

Did Kyler Murray live in Plano East and go to Allen? UIL was notably silent.

All the best programs in football and basketball are recruiting players. 

Definitely reads like the UIL picked an easy target. "Hey, Cathy is retiring anyhow. Let's get her!"

UIL looks like a joke when they let schools like Allen get away with the shit they do in football. I don't really care but let's be real. All these big schools are recruiting players.

Katy is just as guilty in Houston. Allen is big as fuck at least so the talent pool makes sense but Katy is one of the smaller 6As and they always get the best players

Mizzou upset #5 Miss St. unexpected 

I hope we can beat the juggernaut that is KSU today lol 

JFC this team is our kyrptonite. Trailing 26-27 at half. 

The 1-3-1 zone fucks Aston so hard 

Lol stretch out less to 14, now it’s 1. No killer instinct. 

This team looks pretty stupid.  They can’t seem to get that you have to pass the ball against this zone.  Couple that with terrible rebounding and you got yourself an L.  

We have 2 halfwits coaching in the Erwin center. Great recruiters and god awful in game coaches. Congrats Karen, 4th Big 12 loss with top 10 talent. 

1,000 internet points to the Aston and Shaka “Dumb and Dumber” photoshop

Garbage coaching. Carey must be concussed still Bc this “offense” she coaches is trash

embarrassing. We're one of 3 teams with 4 conference losses and we still have to play Baylor again. We could finish as low as 4th in the Big 12 this season.

We still have ISU at home and Baylor in Waco.

This team COULD finish with 6 conference losses.

23-7 would be shitty.

22-8 would be AWFUL. 

2020-21 and 2021-22 home/home scheduled with UConn - first year @ UConn and then in Austin. 

Baylor clinched their 10th straight conference title.

Fuck you Karen.

Instead of closing the gap with Baylor we’ve fallen back closer to the rest of the field 

But we beat Baylor that one time.  Average margin of defeat: 12.8 points.  1-14 record versus Baylor under Karen.

New sheriff in town!!!!

Bi-annual Baylor butt raping tonight!

Woot woot. 

I haven't paid too much attention to Ladies hoops since Aston took over. Has there been any scuttlebutt about CDC's opinion of her performance?

Constantly ranked 

4 straight Sweet 16s

Meh. Unless we’re getting Walz, Muffett or Geno, she’s staying 

We won’t fire her but JFC that was pathetic. 

We need to throw CASH at whoever is running Notre Dame or UConn’s offense. 

Aston was a step up from Coach G but damn I thought we would at the least be competing better than this for a big 12 title. Hows the recruiting class look for next year? I thought by now we would have depth and high 4 and 5 stars I don't think getting ass fucked by 30 would be happening. I hate kim Mulkey but shes a good coach.

A really good get in Celeste Taylor out of Long Island.

Couple of Aussies - 6'4 post/center and a PG.

Thats the difference.  She consistently has her team better prepared and ready to go.  She uses any slight that she can find.   Shes a master motivator.  

The talent discrepancy isnt that big anymore if theres even is one.  CDC needs to ask himself if Aston is going to beat Mulkey consistentently.  If the answer is no and it appears to be she needs to go.

Scheme + coaching > talent any day

There are few teams that we go up against where we don't have a talent advantage - UConn, ND, Tennessee, Stanford, Miss State, Baylor, Oregon.  And yet, not only do we have losses to 4 losses to that group this season, throw in a loss to WV and getting SWEPT by KSU.

Last year we watched ND lose what felt like half their team to ACL injuries and win the title.

We lose Higgs 3 months ago and we got curb stomped by Baylor. 

YEa Aston has the feel of 4-5 losses every year and never beating baylor or UConn or top teams, making it to the sweet 16 and losing or that random year we make it to the elite 8 and lose but it's almost like this is as good as it gets with Aston.

Senior day is going....

LOL down 12 in Q1

LMAO 10-27 after 1. 

I’m fucking done with this coach. She’s awful 

Wow sloppy, sloppy ball.  Anyone have any idea what we are trying to do offensively?  I sure don’t.  Defense lazy ass.  

Offense has regressed as the Season has gone along for Ladyhorns.  With Higgs injury, No other real scoring threats have been developed on this team.  Post play is much worse than it should be.... they don't do anything well except get in foul trouble constantly.

Not sure what Karen has tried to do in practices to help this team, but they are not coached well, they have regressed and continue to make too many mental errors.  With the talent on this Ladyhorns team, Aston gets a coaching grade of a real big fat....

Either she goes or staff overhaul. This is as bad as Shaka. 

She needs to refuse TO mic.  Shows what a fraud of a coach she really is.  

So Brookie was kind of a one-woman offense and coach on the floor.  With an assist from Ariel?

 

 

Exactly. And Higgs just made her own shot. 

On a positive note... Much better effort in 3rd qtr by Ladyhorns.  They need to watch a video from Coach Wooden on how important using the backboard is on shots inside 10 feet....

So many short shots missed

Unlike Big 12 mens basketball, the Big 12 womens basketball conference is weak as shit. This loss pretty much means we'll finish no better than 3rd place in conference which is....terrible for the talent we have. Recruiting is going to get harder for Aston in the coming years if she isn't fired

 Nell Fortner seems to care more about this game than some of the Texas 🏀 players....

Yup. Dunno what happened but she’s lost it. Uncompetitive, unprepared and uninspired. 

Three Texas post players in foul trouble.... SHOCKER
