Defense looks really good. Can't let up, though. Tech can get back in it in a hurry.

To state the obvious, this game matters in a lot of different ways, not the least of which is the fact that this appears to be a team we can beat. They're not really bigger than us. We appear to have a slight advantage in athleticism, but they did get a full season in last year and appear to be more...

Chelsie Hall --Louisville: She's off to a good start, playing 27 minutes per game and averaging 8 points and 3 assists. She's the starting point guard for a team that's likely to finish in the top 10 nationally. Chelsie got a little bit of a break because coach Jeff Walz decided to install a new of...

Saylor is a great player and great kid. She's a great teammate and really liked by the ret of the team. Very coachable. She is a top level shooter regularly scoring from the logo. She entered school in January and played in about 6 games. She shot poorly and it was discovered she had a hairline fra...

How about swinging by and giving us the scoop on Saylor Poffenbarger. I know she is in the portal from UConn. I know she's a very talented 6'2 freshman. I know she's a shooter. I know she has a foot/leg injury right now. I know Shea Ralph was one of her main recruiters. Roster wise, right now we hav...

Just can't score.

I think we've reached our quota of Smith 20 footers for the night

Just saw Cheesman in uniform during timeout. Weird. This game seems ready made for her.

During basketball season, ESPN+ is the best bargain in the world.

Cheesman must be sick or something.

Flournoy in the game. Haven't seen much of her.

Hate to admit it, but she (Ciera Toomey) even looks a bit like Breanna Stewart. Some times life ain't fair.

That sounds like what I expect from a Rick Insell team, other than the international flavor. Maybe he's always relied on international talent, but it's not something I associated with the program. I have to admit I'm not very confident at all, but it would be a big win if we can pull it off. I'm st...

Kinda heart hurt this morning. First of all, Emma Risch, a ’23 Florida guard I really thought we’d have a good chance at based on schools who offered her, announced her commitment to Notre Dame. That’s the school I thought would be our biggest competition. She’s a bit like Ashlyn Shade without the p...

S'mya Nichols out of Kansas has Vandy among her final eight for the class of '23. She is listed as ESPN's #34 player for her class. Her group of finalists: Vandy, Tennessee, UCLA, Mississippi State, Wisconsin, Missouri, West Virginia and Kansas. She's 6'0 tall and plays on the wing. In addition to t...

Watched most of MTSU's eight-point win at VCU. It was really not that close. The Raiders led by 25 in the third quarter, and eight was as close as VCU ever got. The most impressive thing was that MTSU held them to 11 points in the first half while taking a 22-point lead. They're tough on defense. Th...

Three freshmen on the floor at the end of the third. I like it.

Something we're really going to like: Iyana Moore can shoot it. She hit 45 percent from three her senior year and 43 percent her junior year. Not too shabby.
