Running 2023-24 NCAA Basketball Thread

I think coaches tend to get too much credit for success….

…but there’s a reason we’re about to get Geno vs Staley in the final.

 

I am not a Geno fan. But he is a great coach.

 

Clark should drive to the basket every time.

 

Iowa should be down by 20 after a half like that. Hawkeyes very fortunate to only be down 6 at half.

 

Iowa kept trying that long pass from the in bounds to catch a quick fast break. But UCONN has had two players back each time. That’s great coaching. Iowa really has been off all night against this defense.

 

UCONN has been streaky and committed some dumb fouls. But yeah, Iowa has not been great offensively tonight.

 

UConn only up six when Clark was shut down as she was? I like Iowa's chances.

 

A few buckets off Clark passes have to happen for Iowa to have a chance.

And yes, Clark needs to drive more. Her passing will continue to make a difference that way, too.

 

Too much hero ball from Clark. But yeah, if she makes three of those in a row, it's a whole other ball game.

 

Or pull up from 40

 

Normally I loathe the preening for the camera, but if it blocks white guy with white man rhythm, I’m all for it
