ND vs UConn on ESPN now in the Big East Conference Championship game.
 
Good game. I haven't seen Stanford this year, but it's hard to imagine that they are any better than ND. ND has improved a lot since the lost to Baylor early in the year.
 
My boo, Skylar Diggins, did work, and ND took UConn down for the third straight time this season. I love that Geno made his players stay on the bench (it was probably for the awards, but nonetheless, it was still great).

Stanford is not better than ND, in my opinion. Everything goes through Chiney Ogwumike at Stanford, and when she is out (as evidenced by the Pac 12 championship game), their team tends to crumble. I'm not sure Stanford will make it to the Final Four this year. If they meet the wrong team in the round of 8 (perhaps Iowa State), they could get knocked out.

Diggins is a great player, I wonder if they meet in the final four if ND can take down Uconn 4 times in a season that's hard to do.
 
Muffet may be the best in the game. She takes a much smaller team and gives teams fits because they really play brilliantly together. They may be too small for Griner, but they can give anyone fits.

Notice the threads right now: Geno vs Muffet, Pat Summit vs Geno, and Sherri becomes the USA coach along with the coach of Marist who we all respect.

Why isn't Kim mentioned for these positions? What do you think Pat would think of Kim? If she thinks Geno is bad for the sport, I can't imagine what she thinks of Kim.

I'm not exactly seeing that in the article. Pat says nothing, and she is a part of a coaching fraternity that tends to say nothing in public. Even the comments about Geno are subdued. She is never specific about what he did.

What he did pales in comparison.

The article says they are friends. I really don't know so I took it at face value.
 
Friends? Really? You don't think it is more of a colleague type thing?

I've been told that Sherri is still friends with Kim so I don't have a hard time believing Pat may be as well.

Kim and Sherri were close back in the day when Sherri was a new head coach and Kim was an assistant at LaTech and they were both on the recruiting trail with small children, but those days are long gone. I don't think it's possible for Kim to be friends with any coach she really competes with. And Kim has disrespected OU players, and really all the other conference players often enough that I don't see how Sherri or any other coach in the conference would feel very friendly towards her.

Having Skyler Diggins sure does help, doesn't it?

I'm just telling you what I was told by someone I know who works in the athletic program and that is, they are still friends.

Maybe "Kim" does not want to. She's busy RECRUITING!

I would tend to agree that they are "friendly"...maybe not besties or hanging out during the dead period. It ain't personal, it's a business and I'm sure "Pat, Kim, Sherri, Geno, Muffet, et al" understand that.
 
After ND stole the ball at the end of the game none of the UConn players tried to get back on defense. It was as if they didn't think ND had enough time to get a shot off. It looked like a couple of them tried to foul but the refs didn't call it or Diggins avoided them.

Diggins made a great play to steal the ball but what was outstanding was her not rushing and getting careless but rather using the time on the clock and finding the open girl under the basket. ND will miss Diggins a great deal.
