Yeah she took a couple of charges early in the game.
Thanks. I thought she might have gone a game without hitting the deck.

JSU coach is working up a sweat
Bad core mass versus cooling surface ratio.
Has Warren been down on the floor tonight? I don't think she has...

I didn't pencil this in as a tough game but JSU is making up for their lack of size by speeding past our bigger slower players. Its been an effective gameplan by them
Jackson State, who won the Southwestern Athletic Conference title in 2020-21 and made a trip to the NCAA Tournament, was tabbed No.1 in the SWAC preseason coaches' poll.
JS lost at Ole Miss (7-1) by 13 and lost at Miami (4-2) by 5. (Miami only lost by 2 at #6 Indiana)
Hopefully Harmon can stay on the court for the fourth.

Jackson State has the right idea of sagging like this but you can't leave Matharu open.
True

Hopefully Moore, Hunter, and King-Hawea are back soon.
Had the big tease with Hunter hitting all those threes and then gone. SO want this team all together and see what they can do.

Warren and ebo are s l o w. But Harmon or the other guards should be able to at least be in the area. Those two jsu guards are obviously faster than anyone on our team though.
Yeah the one time Ebo was like F* it, I'm not catcher her.

Getting sick of watching teams beat us down the court.
-
Three on Harmon, a lot of fouls in this game.
-
Jack state got some ballers.
-
It's an experienced club.
Lattimore giving us some good minutes.

#14/16 Texas (4-1, 0-0 Big 12) vs Jackson State (1-2, 0-0 SWAC)
Frank Erwin Center (16, 540) – Austin, Texas
• TELEVISION: The game will be televised nationally by Longhorn Network. Alex Loeb (pxp) and Andrea Lloyd (analyst) will call the action.
• RADIO: 105.3 The Bat broadcasts every UT game on the statewide network.
Craig Way (pxp) and Kathy Harston (analyst) will call the action. Check TexasSports.com for a listing of affiliates carrying the game.
• SERIES: 2nd meeting, Texas leads 1-0
FAMILIAR FACE: Longhorn head coach Vic Schaefer will see another familiar face on Wednesday in Jackson State's Ameshya Williams. Williams, the Tigers leading scorer and rebounder (18.0 PPG/8.7 RPG) and reining SWAC Defensive Player of the Year, was recruited and played under Schaefer during his final season at Mississippi State.
This one may not be a laugher. JS lost at Ole Miss (7-1) by 13 and lost at Miami (4-2) by 5. (Miami only lost by 2 at #6 Indiana)

Only criticism of the kids tonight is we're getting killed on the glass. It's all that's keeping this from being a 20- to 25-point cakewalk.
Defense is there. Offense isn't great as others have noted, but their shot selection--and shooting--have been solid.
However, rebounding continues to be a problem. Not sure it's something one man (Disu) can fix.
This.

I know we beat them by 40 points but really impressed with Csun’s backdoor cuts, beating us down the court on offense and ball movement to find the open man. For an interim coach and largely inexperienced players that was impressive. At times they looked like a seasoned group. Gives Vic additional information about his own team as well.
Really wish we would get the hurt girls back, they need this time to get their confidence up and get integrated into the team. Never sure how long Warren is going to be available either, we need as many moving parts as we can get.

#14/16 Texas (3-1) vs California State University, Northridge - CSUN (2-2) Big West
Saturday, Nov. 27 1:00 p.m. Central
TV: LHN
Nov 7th:
It’s been 20 months since the CSUN women’s basketball team has played. Since then, the Matadors have a new head coach and a plethora of new players.
Only three players on this year’s team have significant Division I experience, but everyone has a hunger to improve.
“One thing that I really like about being on a younger team is there’s so much room to grow,” graduate student Meghann Henderson said. “And you can see the girls get better every single day.”
In addition to six true freshmen, CSUN is helmed by interim head coach Carlene Mitchell, who coached at UC Santa Barbara from 2011-2015. Mitchell became head coach in late July following the resignation of Lindsey Foster due to family reasons.
CSUN
Coach: Carlene Mitchell, first season (interim)
Records last season: 12-19 overall, 7-9 Big West
Postseason finish: Lost in opening round of Big West Tournament
Top returners: Meghann Henderson, GS, 5-10, guard, 8.9 ppg, 4.6 rpg; Jordyn Jackson, R-Jr., 5-4, guard, 8.9 ppg, 4.6 rpg
Key losses: De’Jionae Calloway, forward, 13.5 ppg, 8.4 rpg; Lauren Shymkewicz, center, 5.6 ppg, 5.8 rpg, 1.1 bpg
Newcomers to watch: Kayanna Spriggs, 6-2, forward, Mater Dei Catholic High (Chula Vista); Macy Smith, 5-10, guard, Spring Lake Park High (Minnesota); McKenzie Hudgen, 5-7, guard, Marian High (Indiana); Rochelle Fourie, 6-3, center, Manukura School (New Zealand)
Coach’s quote: “We’re a small team, we’re a young team, so we’ve got to understand how to win games, how to stay in games. And sometimes you can do that by just competing.” — Carlene Mitchell

#12 Texas at #16 Tennessee

Head Coach: Kellie Harper 2019 - present
Kellie Jolly Harper (born May 3, 1977)[1] is an American basketball coach who is currently the head women's basketball coach of the Tennessee Lady Vols. Prior to coaching at Tennessee, she served as head coach of Missouri State, NC State, and Western Carolina.

Tennessee under Coach Harper:
2019–20 21–10 Postseason not held due to COVID-19

I didn’t. Celeste is a good player but I would take all 3 of the guards we added over her.
Matharu, Harmon and Hunter are more talented.
I think this will end up being addition by subtraction by the end of the year because these young guards wouldn’t be getting as many minutes if Celeste was still here.
You are right, so far those three guards have shown serious promise especially Harmon, who appears to be a program changer. Lot's more to come from Hunter and Matharu.
I can never tell how recruits are going to work out, they look great on the recruiting boards but i have no clue if it will translate to the college level. I suck at evaluation but I guess that qualifies me to coach the football team for the past decade.... 😄

Celeste plays good defense but is a streaky shooter and not great from 3. Her Duke career this far:
8-13 (0-2 three) for 17 points and 5 rebounds
4-12 (1-3 three) for 11 points and 8 boards
2-7 (0-3 from three) for 11 points and 7 boards
7-9 (1-1 from three) for 16 points and 6 rebounds
2 great games with 2 shooting clunkers in between
So Celeste is averaging about 13.75 points per game at a .500 percentage with about 6.5 rebounds per game.
I'll take the rebounds but your right, she's shooting a lesser percentage than our better players and from three she's not good. .222
JAT needs to spend a little time on that 3 percentage as well.

I just realized that Rae Burrell is out with an injury right now for Tennessee. So that makes the game on Sunday a bit easier. She's Tennessee's best player.
We'll take all the help we can get, especially in an away game.
Surprised Hunter is injured, hopefully back soon.
Carr and Harmon = Gold

You can certainly see the difference when Rori is on the floor.
Nice to see so much of our bench get a lot of burn, I thought Gaston started to show some signs of being back but Lattimore had some freshman struggles today. I didn't think the score was representative of what was possible with so much of our bench playing, but a valuable game for us in the long run.
On to Tennessee on Sunday at noon. Two games for us on back to back Sundays on ESPN, getting some respect.
Won't see as much of this bench in Knoxville.

Obviously early season and small sample size warnings apply, but we're #2 in Massey after the win over Stanford. Sorry if that was mentioned. Moved up 23 spots in his ratings set.
https://masseyratings.com/cbw/ncaa-d1/ratings
Lots of parity this season according to his ratings. Pretty unusual for women's basketball to see so many expected losses for the top 10 teams.
Wow, I don't see us anywhere close to #2 but we'll take it. It's going to be an exciting season and we will definitely be in the conversation. Could not have hoped for a better start, I though we were done after losing Celeste.

Looks like Vic is trying to get everyone some PT. Treating it more as a practice game.
Warren on the floor only once so far. 🙄
-
Pulled Harmon quick. (?)
Ebo lost the tip. Ha!
Big girls feasting.

Against such a diminutive lineup I'm hoping Gaston/Ebo/Moore/Lattimore get some confidence to help us in tougher games going forward.

Lattimore would be another Freshman on the floor but I thought she played a good game today and showed some real potential. Her rim protection off the bench could help as long as she doesn't get bumped from the rotation when Moore gets back.
