Still getting my head around that, I'd lost track of that until the announcers talked about it. Medical redshirt plus COVID year so she has that 6th year. She'll be 24 this summer. She'd have a masters by end of next year if she wanted that.
I'll be glad when this COVID year is done for after next season. I never thought that it was necessary, well intended and all but dumb. Hoping the Hawk's Clark goes pro, otherwise the whole national record thing (scoring/assists) will be turned upside down and unassailable like our own ISU school scoring record.
Syracuse isn't a bad loss as they're one of the stronger teams in a good ACC, but I think we could beat Vandy if we played them a second time.....regardless, proud of the team's effort to get back into NCAA tournament conversation and now solidifying a spot in the big dance after that rough patch during conference play
it helps that Mulkey is no longer there......she's really the one that made me hate Baylor.....and yeah, in women's basketball, I still don't care for Baylor but Nicki is much more likable than Kim
Question for those that were more in tune with the ladies last night (I was at Hilton and only saw what was on the video board).
I saw a brief mention here of Audi in foul trouble. Can someone fill in the gaps, How serious was it? Did she sit because of it? Were they good calls or questionable fouls?
Thanks for any added info

She picked up her third early and had to sit most of that quarter. Picked up her fourth in the fourth and had to again sit for a while. Lee also picked up her fourth and that allowed some drives at the hoop since she couldn’t risk fouling.
It should of only been for players who got covid and missed a significant amount of time. Feels like just because the tourney's were cancelled in 2020 they just gave this extra year to make up for it.
Just adding to Macs response, I thought Audi’s first was cheap but she earned the other three. I’m not sure what she was thinking on the fourth where she was running down the court and lowered her shoulder into Lee without the ball! In typical Audi fashion, she decked Ayoka, then helped her up with a smile.
The NET ain't perfect and that's why it is just one of about 10 factors the committee considers in selecting and seeding. There are always some curious NET outliers. Last year, IIRC, I thought the Sooners were rated too high all year and this year they look to be underrated considering how they have played in conference. I think our own team number is a pretty fair overall season assessment.
Oklahoma's non-conference was ugly (6-5), including a loss to Southern in Norman. They beat an overrated Ole Miss team early, but have no great non-conference wins.
Their NC schedule is holding them back.
wait......OU lost to Southern? Like the Southern Jaguars? What the hell?!

After all of the doom and gloom by some with the transfers this year, this year has been a great coaching job by Bill and his staff. Overall effort and execution by the team has certainly exceeded expectations. The future could not be brighter for this young Cyclone squad.

This was the dreaded Christmas getaway game - guessing the Sooners were half way home mentally during this game.
Yes. Pretty sure coaching is in her future and maybe some pro ball. Ryan may take one more season with her mentor (Bill) and cast, then strike out at a different school to pick up on different coaching philosophies or styles and work through the ranks. And if she stays on track and does not get all sidetracked as Lacey did
. As they say, "If you can't play anymore you might as well coach." I made that last line up.
