It was a complete game really. The only thing I will be looking for is the poise and emotion being in check this season. Cotie might take a back seat to Jaloni now and that will be different for her. She nailed a few 3's last night so it looks like she's adapting already which is great. We need Taylor to just keep being Taylor, she does everything. The ball movement was excellent last night with a pivot at the foul line being a catalyst for several easy back cuts and layups. That is different from the way we attacked the last few years and having a 6'6" big player is a beautiful sight for sore eyes!Not certain am adding anything different, but seems to be a great start for the Lady Bucks. Played alot of folks, and trying to find a cohesive starting 5, plus identifying subs that can pick up the game when called upon. Certainly Jeloni balled out, loved her stat line beyond points. Hope she can maintain throughout. Taylor and Cotie have nothing to prove, except for that nebulous 'leadership' portion of their existence. Wasn't able to watch the game, but will be looking for that. Also haven't gone into the stats, but certainly will when there's an opponent closer to tOSU level. Certainly seems like Maddie will start 'running the show', but that Jeloni will be forcing herself into minutes along the way. Great start, and we'll see how well things jell before we embark upon the B10 meatgrinder. Go Bucks! PS, from what I read, the bigs looked good as well.
Wanted to say the B1G+ production was light years ahead of where they were the last time I watched it. It's like they hired people to actually do the job and the commercials weren't too intrusive. Honestly was a great watch all the way around last night.
