Will state that am impressed that Elsa has grown from last to this year. Still hasn't got that 'mean streak' in her, but she's trying. Hobbs can give her a blow, but uncomfortable with Hobbs in during a comeback etc. Kitts seems to 'fill in the cracks' well on the glass. Don't know who's the bigs coach, but wish they'd work with Elsa on facing the basket. Other than the occasional 3, when she faces, she doesn't drive. Hey, if she's on the free throw line, pop one or two, so the D big doesn't sag in the middle. (Took me more than a few years to do that, but my back to the basket game was pretty solid)....

Sweep, Baby! That's 11 in a row for the team. Both teams down their five best players, so it was an even match.

Twelve current or former Buckeyes are playing in the women's tournament in Milan. For their coach, "it’s going to be tough to choose who I’m cheering for."

Wow, what great publicity for the program. Build that woman her god dawned arena, Slapshot.

I’m too lazy to go find it, but curious the game splits of Mitchell and Harden on court together?

Probably hard to implement Game 1, but there should really never be a scenario in a game where one of them is off the court…..in a competitive game.

If the money is right Deion will take flight.

Figured it would be a weird first game, but didn't expect them to need a come-from-behind win. Apparently Harden wasn't even allowed to participate in a practice before the game due to league rules for completion of the trade. He could watch and listen, but that was it. Hopefully we will see continuous improvement from here forward.

Biennial rant about how shitty the NBC coverage is. Announcers can’t muster even the slightest bit of excitement for non-Americans. Cutting away from coverage of an event before it’s done.

I just cant get into these for some reason, hard enuf just cuz its the winter ones .
Oh well bring on the super bowl

Tight ends seems a little steep or no? I could probably be convinced but I’m a little off with that grade. I thought the group was super consistent throughout the season and was more on the B or B+ side of things unless run blocking scores just wrecked them?

Kid is football fast too. I've seen him run guys down on defense that he had no business being close too.

BTW some of these run measurements were done when he was 190lbs+ - the speed will follow him as he puts on more muscle.

Kind of sounds like a Parris Campbell to me, is that a good comparison? I sure hope so for our sake.

I was screaming at the TV as soon as he got the takedown. I told my wife Ryan heard me and decided to challenge. She very emphatically stated she didn't think so. She's such a Negative Nancy

Kind of infuriating he even had to throw the brick, but refs are humans and they got it right. Really great roll we're on, hopefully our guys that are banged up enjoy the golden singlets and are ready for the gauntlet once the PSU dual is over.

Wow. Have to give him props Harden took over in the 4th and won this game. Definitely need more Defense but they can score 130 per game imo.

If the defense was supposed to be better…it isn’t.

Can't wait to watch him in S&G

There’s at least 35 fans at the game tonight…maybe 40

And the Bucks get the sweep over Minny, 2-1!!

Holy shit Harden comes out dishing the rock in this first quarter.

Yeah, and the BD spent the entire second quarter saying “the ball needs to move and I don’t like this 1-on1 stuff”
