St. Solid PG play in William. A legit scorer that can get you 30 plus easily in Vivians. Dillingham is a good defender and has been scoring better lately. And Vic Shaffer has championship pedigree as an assistant on the Texas A&M team that won it in 2011. Not saying they can beat UConn, but I think they're the best team that no one has been really talking about all season Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15412382148154635855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-3030577276221168122017-02-16T09:15:58.853-05:002017-02-16T09:15:58.853-05:00Ionescue has had an incredible freshman year.

Ionescue has four TRIPLE doubles and two other freshman are making big contributions and only getting better every game. One reason Maryland is having more success than the Cards this year is how quickly they filled the hole at pg with the freshman Slocum whern Lexie Brown left Last year you knew MD couldn't get to the final four because they had no pg. When you get freshman like Ionescue and Slocum that improve your team right away you are really fortunate.

I know the beating that UConn put on them in Connecticut was embarrassing and painful but it was a night when nothing seemed to work. <br /><br />Beware the "four foreigners" as I like to call them. Laska (Lativa), Jespersen (Denmark), Pujol (Spain) and Flores (Spain) are all qualtiy and experienced players. Jose has nine internationals on his 15 player squad and what they do on "team dinner night" is anyone's guess but I like this team and have seen several of their home games this year, including when Louisville visited. I'll go watch them play Temple and UConn in the SunDome also. <br /><br />Also, a bit of sad news. Delores' mom passed away Sunday. She was 73 and had been in good health until January. She caught pneumonia and just couldn't beat it. <br /><br />-- The Real Joe Hill -- Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-88344677315046917062017-02-15T10:47:17.927-05:002017-02-15T10:47:17.927-05:00I agree Paulie Pack 12 is week IMHO.

She just needs to tighten up the defense to get more playing time. <br /><br />Having had back spasms in the past, I honestly hope BJ can beat them but one bad movement or tweak and you are in a world of pain. As much as BJ flies around the court, I don't see a good prognosis here but I hope I am wrong. <br /><br />Blue LouAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-7677349497745516132017-02-15T10:41:26.899-05:002017-02-15T10:41:26.899-05:00Kelsey Plum could be UofL Volleyball's Lyndsay...Kelsey Plum could be UofL Volleyball's Lyndsay Palmer's sister.

Non conference losses to Kansas St. and LSU in the Paradise Jam in the Virgin Islands early on can be rationalized as well. Early season. Losing at Tulane is interesting. Spencer, Mathurin, Nelson, Williams and Wilson give them a very solid attack and I expect they'll be a challenge to whoever is unlucky enough to get them in the first and second rounds in the Big Dance, Paulie. <br /><br />I think the PAC 12 could have some impact as well in the Big Dance. Washington, Stanford, Oregon State, Oregon, UCLA, Cal and USC have shots at getting bids. I wouldn't want to face any of them in the first or second rounds. Who beats UConn? I'll take a shot and say Maryland.
