Dear University of Oklahoma Board of Regents, President and Athletic Director: I realize this specific forum is where one can state their opinion on any given number of topics regarding the Oklahoma Women's Basketball program. I'm asking the university principals to review the standards set...

I’ve been in observation mode for several months and the following are just a few opinions based on those observations: 1. It appears to be some cost cutting measures taking place in WBB. JRoss is no longer on the website and I assume no longer on the staff. 2. CCoale is still on the...

I just shake my head every time I see that "3" on her jersey. She has improved since last year, but now she's ready to compete at the DIII level with some success. And it's not her fault. She is put in that position and is not ready for it...and will not be next year, or the year after. I'm...

I am a firm believer in helping with the problem if I talk about the problem. Feel free to add your own suggestions to the “OU WBB Fan Version of a 5-Year Strategic Plan” . We have some extra time on our hands since there is at least one team we won’t be watching in the Big XII tourney or NCAA...

I think that we all can agree that the current team lacks the skill set to successfully compete in the Big XII. Most of them would be great mid to low DI players and there are a few NAIA's and JC's on the team. I haven't seen all of the games this year, but the ones that I have were absent...

Where is the follow-up to this story on soonersports.com? Surely it would be a good read for recruits. http://www.soonersports.com/ViewArticle.dbml?SPSID=750397&SPID=127261&DB_OEM_ID=31000&ATCLID=211768689 Anything? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jpJJ4qV95eI...

She has returned to the Big XII as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator. http://www.star-telegram.com/sports/college/big-12/texas-christian-university/article210483769.html

Interesting article! http://newsok.com/article/5589177/why-geno-auriemmas-words-from-2002-still-resonate-with-sherri-coale A few points: 1. “You think this is how it's supposed to be all the time now,” Coale remembers Auriemma telling her fresh off of his third national championship and second...

Saw this news report while at a tournament and during a discussion about it, none of us could remember if she ever had an injury that kept her out of a game. http://www.excellesports.com/news/courtney-paris-dallas-wings-injury/

NOTE: SC in the title header is for South Carolina! Congrats to Coach Dawn Staley as she was named the new coach to the Women's US Olympic team. She doesn't plan to try to fix what is not broke. Imagine that! She continued: “We have to have the participation of the players in order for us...

I may have missed this topic along the way. If so, forgive me and refer me to the thread. If not, can someone help me to understand why NMulkey starts the game to give a POTENTIAL advantage to possession of the first play (jump ball) versus VPLouis? Maybe I'm missing something.

CParis - Turkey/Hatay Looks like CP has not forgotten the Stanford Sweet 16 game of 2006. She and Newlin are still going at it. http://www.eurobasket.com/boxScores/Turkey/2016/1221_7715_15633.asp?women=1 AThompson - Romania/Liga Nationala Had a great game today...

This article is quite interesting! Bosworth made some pretty bold statements as an alum. It would be interesting to hear the opinions of WBB alums from years past. It's thought provoking to say the least when I view this article, substituting WBB for FB. We as forum contributors have our...

Seems like a good idea! With today's technology (Facetime, Skype, etc) it should be easy enough. Wisdom, hindsight and experience to share...priceless. "Each player also learned which former player would serve as the “In Her Shoes”, someone they could count on for advice on and off the court...

This is a very interesting article that every student-athlete from middle school through high school should read...along with their parents and coaches. My opinion...college coaches adhere to this from one extreme to another...0-100%. “He is a great talent, he certainly has the skills...
