Bye bye Brink again. Sorry but she has huge bust written all over her in the WNBA.
I'd be surprised if she's there longer than a year. Not as many roster spots there, they won't hesitate to cut her if she doesn't work.

Completely different officiating in the Stanford game tonight. Just night and day what they are whistling in this one as opposed to basically letting both teams do whatever they wanted the other night in Palo Alto.

Yeah I agree with that view, Super thin just don't see where she'll have the strength to be a force in the WNBA. At least Clark has shooting range and passing ability. I still think she may be undersized but I don't watch that much WNBA to make a good assessment.

South Carolina is the best team in the country. They're not untouchable, though, and I'm not sure if they will win it all.
South Carolina fell in love with shooting the three instead of going inside where they were dominating the game.

Watching the game, there were times when they had their big lead that they looked bored on the floor.

Me neither, but they are my pick.

No Dee Kantner, no Jesse Dickerson on the crew. Odd how that works out, isn't it?

Jesse's on the Texas/Gonzaga game, with Brian Garland.

It's really incredible how many Big 12 regulars get assigned late-round tournament games. They're supposed to be the best of the best?!? yikes.

I was already almost there to begin with, but our men being a 2 seed and in the Sweet 16 kept me a tinge more excited for the men’s tournament. But damn the Sweet 16 that was supposed to be so good was one giant wet fart. I am way more intrigued by the women’s tournament the rest of the way. The men’s tournament has been really boring for the most part.

Think the "names" in WBB help that out for watching teams that aren't your own. MBB lacks the star power big names, they all go NBA before they become the names like we had decades ago. No MBB players outside of ISU I'll tune in just to see. Just today we get JuJu, Clark, Bueckers and Reese, one each for the four games.
