WBB: General All-NCAA Thread - Not Team Cyclones Stuff

[CloneSt8]

South Dakota State just won the WNIT over Seton Hall by about 30 points! Impressive win. This is the same Jackrabbit team that the Twister Sisters dispatched by 19 points back in November.

Not precisely the "same" team as they didn't have Myah Selland back yet when we played. She was last years Summit League POY. They should have been in the NCAA's over some of the rather pedestrian P6 teams that got in. BS that they weren't in.

Gophers just lost Sara Scalia on the transfer portal but I don't think she's what we need

ISU recruited her out of high school - would be a great get IMO. Assume she's tired of losing.

She’d be an outstanding addition. Many here are too sentimental when this is the time to “go for it”! Hey, MEM has been my favorite lady Cyclone since she arrived in Ames. Sara S. would theoretically supplant MEM for playing time and I’m all for it if it makes the team better! Iron sharpens iron! MEM and Aubrey can rise to the challenge or take it elsewhere- you can’t have too many good players!

The Whalen/Gopher dumpster fire continues.

Gophers women’s basketball roster down to three players

Sophomore point guard Alexia Smith is the sixth of Lindsay Whalen’s players to enter the NCAA transfer portal this season.

It's amazing how many Big 12 regulars get assigned to officiate the women's final four/championship. They're supposed to be the best of the best?

S. Carolina gets good size leads then they start doing stupid stuff and allowing UCONN to get back in the game.

Destanni Henderson has the answer though

Destanni Henderson has the answer though

Do I remember correctly that she’s about 5’3”?

Do I remember correctly that she’s about 5’3”?

I think she is listed at 5’7”. Looks shorter though.

You know I just don't care much for D Staley. Terrific coach and all and am not watching this game but just not a favorite of mine.......

Good for South Carolina.

Do ESPN's announcers ever know that them yelling doesn't make something more interesting?

That was funny:

PBP guy is from New York, which probably explains most of it.

So who won the CF women's tournament challenge? I can't find the link anymore.

 

[Tornado man]

OMG Holly Rowe...

It's hard to dislike Aliyah Boston - she appears to be a genuinely nice young lady...

Don't ask any Hawk fans though.

When I think of the differences between Clark and Boston they are interesting. Boston isn’t needed to score 25 per game on her team or she easily could. That is an indicator of more talent on the entire team. What Boston does that makes a major impact is rebound at the rate of a dozen per game. That’s a hard work, positioning, hustle type of stat. Not as flashy as chucking up mid court three's but probably more impactful on the success of the team.
