  1. Nah, reg season only
  2. Doing it one time isnt an accomplishment. Doing 10 of 12 yrs is. They were single digit seeds every yr during that period. Made multiple sweet 16s and Elite 8s. Obviously they had more success when they had a singular talent like CC but again they werent some upstart program with no history of success. They had the national POY in Megan Gustafson just a couple yrs before CC got there. Using "only when Stewart was in college" or what she said as some metric is silly. First off, CC didnt play while Stewart was in college so it has nothing to do with anything. More importantly, those players won titles when Stewart wasnt in college, just like CC played when Stewart wasnt in college and didn't. And FTR, I'm not saying CC isnt great without a title. Those UConn teams were absolutely STACKED. They had 8 other players that are playing in the W right now including all-stars and MVP level players. Stewart was clearly the best of those teams but those teams win at least two titles without her.
  3. Not totally true. While Iowa wasn't as deep as say South Carolina, they had multiple 4 star rated players and one teammate who was drafted as well. They had also played together multiple yrs so they had good chemistry. She wasn't just playing with whoever showed up that day. The Iowa program made the tournament 10 out of 12 yrs before CC got there. They aren't UConn or SC but they were not some complete unknown program that never accomplished anything either.
  4. Yes, Griner was on the undefeated 2012 Baylor team and avg'd 23/9.5 and 5 blks/gm that season. Odyssey Sims was on that team as well. A'ja won a title as well in 2017 with South Carolina. Arike won one in 2018 at Notre Dame. Hayley Jones and Cam Brink won at Stanford in 2021. UConn hasnt won a title in the 8 yrs (7 seasons, taking out 2020 as there wasnt a tourney/champ that yr) since Stewart left. I'm not trying to knock CC because she obviously was incredible in college but plenty of other big time players managed to win a title in college. Its definitely much more top heavy in WCBB than other sports but its not an impossible task.
  5. 3rd worst
  6. Yeah that's pretty wild. Dont know his family situation but I'm guessing having a job where he can basically be in one place all the time without being on his phone 24 hrs/day is the idea
  7. Talk about a Woj bomb
  8. Shaq hated on Dwight Howard for yrs among the many players he's hated on over the yrs. There are plenty of examples of old heads hating new school players. Its not just a woman thing. Its a bitch thing. I can't even dismiss Swoopes' shit as anything else but hating now just like I don't dismiss Shaq's bitchassness as anything but hating. And yes the MJ/Isiah thing is a prime example of a decades long beef.
  9. Total points record going down this season. Total rebound record already down and total assist record will as well. Its great to see records falling but this is the 2nd season with 40 gms moving from the previous 32.
  10. Interesting. Look at the date Carrington tweeted that
  11. This is nuts
  12. Thing is you should be able to like both. There is nothing wrong with that. I hate that people feel the need to bash one to prop the other. Its not just with these two unfortunately. Its become the nature of all sports discussion and it fucking sucks. Fuck Whitlock a million times over.
  13. Yeah they were still trying to play it on the low but they were seen multiple times walking a few steps behind one another. Lady put them on blast though LOL Their kid could be the best defensive player this world has ever seen LOL
  14. She passes infinitely better than Steph. Steph is considered a PG just because he is the shortest guy on the team but he's really a SG. Never the full time playmaker
