    Twister Sister Summary - big plays, defense end Baylor streak

    So, so happy for the women's team. They had some great successes and some heartbreaking losses, but this is truly the way to end the regular season for a team with a lot of heart. Well done and congratulations.

    ***Big 12 Wrestling Thread***

    What do you expect? Good heavens, man. He is an elite wrestler who is injured (we do not know how badly) who wants to stay as healthy as possible for nationals.

    Wrestling Facilities at ISU

    Cornell has a sole purpose wrestling building. The Friedman Wrestling Center was built in 2002, I think, so was the first of its kind in US college wrestling. It is a lot smaller than OSU, seating only 900 fans, but its strength is as a practice facility (pardon the very weak pun).

    Percentage of Women Coaches Drops

    Yours is a good question, and I suspect different professions take a different approach. But in some professions - and the young woman I referred to is in academia - awards and national and international stature are very big deals. But that is a very specific situation. However, I do not think...

    Percentage of Women Coaches Drops

    To those who suggest that teams simply hire the best candidate miss what I humbly suggest are two very important considerations. First, when women compete with men for a coaching spot, they are judged differently. So, it is impossible to line up a group of male and female candidates and expect...

    Thank you Twister Sisters

    I am a huge Bridget fan, and have enjoyed watching her develop as a player, a leader and a person for all 4 years. I have even posted that people should make a special effort to attend senior night just to see the end of an era. However, as much as Bridget meant to this team and its success...

    WBB All Big 12 Awards will be announced..

    Getting really tired of the hacks at the coach and a few players. I think some people who hide behind their anonymous name think it is perfectly acceptable to say whatever they want about whoever they want. Sorry, but for some of us, if you wouldn't say it to someone's face, you should say it...

    I didn't. I admit I blew it. I removed it. Now I say goodbye to CF. Won't be back until I learn to read:(

    Oops. Guess I can't criticize the team's performance when I woof like that. Sorry Woody. Seemed out of character. I think I'll slither into the bushes for about a month - or longer.

    I can verify that. Total class all the way.

    WBB All Big 12 Awards will be announced..

    I am glad that Alexa got Honorable Mention, but thought she should be solid member of 2nd Team All Big12. Really glad the Kristin got 2nd team; we'll be hearing more about her in the future - Joens too. But while Bridget deserves every and all credit for our success this year, I really think...

    Monday is senior night. Be there to see the end of an era

    I knew they had applied for a waiver but did not know that they would not recognize her tonight. It would be absolutely delightful if she did get another year. Her improvement over the course of this season has been so fun to watch. It would be a big plus to have her back next year, especially...

    Where would you rank Prohm far as big 12 coaches go.

    Then I am sorry that I misunderstood you. My bad.

    Where would you rank Prohm far as big 12 coaches go.

    I can't believe what you wrote. That the development of the players was due to their own effort (which of cource was essential) and not due to Prohm's contribution. But LW's struggle may be due to the coach. I guess if you don't like a coach, any argument will work to prove you are right.

    You said it well. And you said it better than I could. Thank you.

    Monday is senior night. Be there to see the end of an era

    Another reason to attend tomorrow night is they will recognize BF's 500th win. Pretty cool.

    ***Official Texas postgame thread***

    I may be missing your point and apologize if I am, but support for the Twister Sisters runs deep. Attendance is 3rd in the country and last year averaged close to 10K, and last year was not a good year. So, I do not think that WBB is a bandwagon sport; there is strong support, even in years...
