I recall that the 6-on-6, no one crosses half-court is the way Pat Summit played HS ball. I also think that she either initiated or was a key figure in a lawsuit to change that to allow HS players to play the same game the boys were playing. I don't think that rule was changed until after she finis...

I remember the type of basketball "specifically tailored" to women. In high school in Florida, it was six-on-six with nobody crossing the center line. I've read about women's basketball played in this fashion, but never seen a live game. I went to high school in Memphis in the mid-60's, a...

Yes, very good article. Interesting to realize that I was in/around Chapel Hill around the same time as her mom. I remember the type of basketball "specifically tailored" to women. In high school in Florida, it was six-on-six with nobody crossing the center line. Around the time I graduate...

My guess if Gardner is not on the bench Is that she is redshirting since she was considered somewhat of a project. I also guess Cheesman is out due to sickness or injury. Pearl I think I remember is hurt. I do not think Taylor or LaChance will play this year. Thanks - I was wondering what are your ...

3 minutes left, and I think we are playing well. Improvement needed of course, but I love our aggressiveness. I too am puzzled by Cheesman's absence. Injured, in the doghouse, or simply no longer a part of the rotation? My guess if Gardner is not on the bench Is that she is redshirting since she wa...

Jacksonville cut the lead to 2 points, but Vandy held and leads by 8 at 60-52 with 6:35 left in the 4th.

JSU closes a bit, 34-29 at the half. Ten TOs, not good. Alexander leads scoring with 12.

TIght game in Q1, Big Vandy 11-0 run to take a 32-21 run with 4 min left.

Yes, fun video! I know we're not 100% sure of the quality of the competition, but still I'm feeling very encouraged by last night's game. I'm very pleased about the different ways we scored, with different players doing it. Not to overlook Jacksonville State on Sunday, but our Thanksgiving tournamen...

And so we did! 75-55 VU win. 50% FG%, 40% 3pt%,16 assists, 14 TOs, 4 players in double figures. Very encouraging!

Halftime score 34-20, Vandy with 8 TOs and 9 assists -- I like! Also shooting 52% from the field (I like) with TTU shooting 36%. I'm still seeing more point-blank missed shots than I'd like, but it sure looks better so far!

So far so good, 5 min left in Q1, Vandy leading 23-9, with Vandy on an 18-0 run!

I just reminded myself it's an early start time!

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 mor...

Jordyn Cambridge was a bright spot with 19 points on 6/9 from the field, 1/1 from 3pt, 6/7 from the line with 9 rebounds. Six TOs isn't good, but given our offensive woes, her scoring is encouraging.

Amauri Williams, one of our signees, is 6'4.

So to start the third, some deja vu - starting the half by digging into another 9-point hole.

27-24 MTSU at halftime. Could be worse, esp since we're only shooting 24% from the field. That, plus the 3 assists to 10 TOs, are stats I'd really like to see improve.

Cambridge ties it again and after the TO will shoot a FT for the chance to give Vandy the lead. I really am impressed that they've kept their composure to come back and make this a very competitive game.

… but then you have to pay separately for Hulu, Netflix, Apple TV, Disney plus, Paramount Plus, Fox Sports, CBS Sports, blah, blah, blah. I don’t know if one of those includes regular old ESPN; I use my inlaws’ login. My daughter and SIL use an antenna plus some streaming subscriptions. I haven't f...
