Actually was funny as the play they broke down showed her traveling with the ball before the pass in a major way. Went from foul line area to standing in opposite direction with feet at the top of the key. Don't know what it would take for her to not have protection from moving screens, fouls and travels but it sure would change the complexion of a game. <br />Might not happen until the WNBA but they are not really doing her any favors in the long run.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-41430794253548410162014-03-18T23:21:42.105-04:002014-03-18T23:21:42.105-04:00I found this is an informative and interesting pos...I found this is an informative and interesting post so i think so it is very useful and knowledgeable.<br />Unique Computer Caseshttp://www.innovativecases.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-10361515701952952462014-03-18T19:09:05.687-04:002014-03-18T19:09:05.687-04:00I believe that Pat Summit, Muffet McGraw and Tara ...I believe that Pat Summit, Muffet McGraw and Tara V. have a few national championships on their resume.

I...Interesting comment about the male coach thing. I don't know if I agree that the teams landed where they did due to the gender of the coaches. That said you are 100% right that the subject of male coaches in WCBB is a big political issue. <br /><br />There is a significant subset of female coaches and athletic administrators that definitely feel male coaches are becoming "overrepresented" in WCBB. They are particularly irritated with the ongoing success of Auriemma & UConn and his unwillingness to maintain politically correct positions on how he views the sport. This same group of folks also had a big problem when USA Basketball recently asked him to coach our national team for another four years. <br /><br />I was never much of a Geno fan but he's such a hellava coach and administrator that it's impossible not to admire what he has done. Before he retires he will be the all time greatest coach in the history of WCBB. I'll be surprised if he doesn't end up with a dozen or more national championships. I'll also betcha that as the elder statesman for USA Basketball he had something to do with Walz getting a chance to coach at the national team level.<br /><br />If anyone is interested here is an interesting column / interview with Auriemma that discusses women coaches in WCBB. It's pretty interesting that in spite of his pedigree this didn't get any national sports media attention.<br /><br />http://www.courant.com/sports/uconn-womens-basketball/hc-jacobs-column-1222-20131221,0,5477211.columnBurnBrotherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04591664997592114722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-79252366811503245042014-03-18T17:37:45.529-04:002014-03-18T17:37:45.529-04:00I am not sure this is simple disrespect. There is...I am not sure this is simple disrespect. There is another subplot going on. There are a lot of people in WCB that do not want more than one male coach at the Final Four, and last year having two male coaches defeat two female coaches was not good for the image of female coaches. This is not discussed openly but it is whispered about. I have heard it before from coaches in years past, but it seems to be coming up again.<br /><br />UWV got the 2 seed but got a tougher road to the final four than any other top four seeded team. UWV also has a male coach. If both Louisville and UWV survive their subregionals, then they will play each other and that will eliminate one. Then Tennessee is supposed to eliminate the other, but last year Baylor did not get the job done. <br /><br />In the end seeding cannot produce a desired result, so it is still open competition and that is what makes the tournament great. You are going to have to beat good teams no matter where you are seeded, and teams that look too hard for an easy path generally do not make it very far.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-35105997151922554802014-03-18T16:17:41.280-04:002014-03-18T16:17:41.280-04:00Yup, they can win this bracket.Yup, they can win this bracket.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-13729284418782917802014-03-18T16:06:24.738-04:002014-03-18T16:06:24.738-04:00Um... looking at the bracket we are in a very good...Um... looking at the bracket we are in a very good position to make a legit run, I'm not upset at all at the seeding.--Umatilla23Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-72139114692111936912014-03-18T15:37:51.998-04:002014-03-18T15:37:51.998-04:00I LOVE this clip and will add it to the Right Side...I LOVE this clip and will add it to the Right Side of the Site for permanent viewing!

We beat them on our home court, UT lost to them on UT's home court. <br /><br />If anything our loss to UK really came back to haunt us. Had we pulled that game out and ended the season with only three losses all to UConn then we'd be a 1 seed. We got hurt because the other ranked teams we beat didn't stand up well throughout the season and UK pretty much did. No wonder Walz was more than unhappy after that loss.<br /><br />I agree that there isn't much difference between a 2 and a 3 seed. We're just going to have to win out. Based upon what I've seen from our ballers since the seeding they're ready to go and don't really care who they play. We chased UT out of the tourney last year and I'm sure we can do it again this year.<br /><br />Going to have to get hot to do anything at all, but we can get there.BurnBrotherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04591664997592114722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-61839061589833351192014-03-18T11:57:01.038-04:002014-03-18T11:57:01.038-04:00Plain and simple disrespect.

Motivation to make a point...again.<br /><br />I'm more upset about Tenn getting the #1 line when they suffered some pretty bad losses...the same logic that was used last year to knock us down a seed line or two and now all of a sudden that logic doesn't apply to them?

I know nothing about Iowa -- just looked at their schedule and they do show three double-digit home court losses to Penn State, Michigan State and Nebraska. Would you rather play them on their home court or LSU on their home court?<br /><br />Hopefully Cardinals can prove that they're better than WVU on the court in a couple weeks.Mike Dnoreply@blogger.com
