Kolek planning to go pro
UCONN is terrifying. Caitlin Clark was the hottest player in the tourney and they’ve largely neutralize her. Bueckers is heading towards a triple double and she’s not even the 2nd leading scorer for UCONN right now
And they are a young team - only going to reload and be much better next season with more highly rated recruits coming in.
Aari McDonald, is such a dynamic fun player, 31, 5, 2, six 3's, does it at both ends of the floor. First ever Elite 8 for Arizona. Big time baller. https://twitter.com/ncaawbb/status/1375996295366631428?s=19
I've been so impressed with coach Adia Barnes at Arizona - she's done a great job at her alma mater. That game and the Indiana-NC State game were fun ones to watch last night. Indiana as a 4 seed knocked off 1 seed NC State to make their first ever Elite 8 also. And this means there will be at least one team make the F4 for the first time ever then. That also assures at least there won't be all 1 seeds at the F4.Buzz Williams sighting on TV last night - they showed him in the stands supporting Texas A&M and talked about the good relationship he has with A&M Coach Gary Blair. Texas A&M had barely escaped their first two tourney games but Arizona made sure this one wasn't close.Looking forward to watching a lot of Men's and Women's Basketball today. Although most of the Women's games look to have strong blowout potential - the 2 Louisville and 6 Oregon match-up looks to have the best potential to be close.
I know that much of the fanbase is different, but it seems a shame to run the women's tournament concurrently with the men's.
UCONN just went on a 17-0 run in the 3rd into the 4th and Bueckers is BALLIN.
I thought the foul called on the previous Baylor offensive possession was non-existent so not a surprise they swallowed the whistle on the final possession.
Bueckers should have been called for a trip of the ballhandler out near the top of the key a couple seconds earlier in the play you're talking about. Agree that the final result of that possession was a phantom foul -- perhaps a makeup call for missing the trip.Gotta call the foul in the final seconds. She was clobbered.I watched most of the second half. The officiating was quite poor, and those teams deserved better.
That’s sort of why Im struggling to be too aggrieved by that call. They were BRUTAL down the stretch for both teams. Both teams deserved better with how good that game was otherwise
Good transfer news - Purdue grad transfer Karissa McLaughlin is coming to Marquette:https://twitter.com/Kmclaughlin12/status/1377356561207631872I haven't had the chance to look up her stats but messageboard chatter says she's a good 3 point shooter which is something MU really needs.
