Too busy being woke to give a shit about basketball
Her wokeness can go pound sand with sloppy joe. Cohen needs to join them.
A loaded roster, yet somewhat young, and they play without a pulse. That is strictly coaching. The air has been completely sucked out of our women's basketball program. Hopefully, she can get up from her chair next game.
Yea, not sure about our team but our HC should be well rested after this game. Nobody is asking for a tirade up and down the sideline but it would be nice to show some interest in what's going on by standing up and exhorting your team.Quote:

Is it the coach, or the team members, or both?Quote:

This approach does not instill confidence. JoMo was quoted as saying pretty much the exact same thing and his difficulties, broadly speaking, can be boiled down to that exact point. Coachspeak or not, it's sets a bad precedent and won't fly in the SEC. It doesn't matter what you want or don't want to do. You do what the game/team/program demands.
No coach wants to have to coach effort.Quote:

Even if her players did give more effort I'm questioning if they have a clue what she wants from them on either end of the floor? A lot of times, in any sport, when you are unsure what you are supposed to be doing it appears as a lack of effort but in reality its just uncertainty in what your job is supposed to be in the scheme you are attempting to run. I just sort of observe that our players are a bit lost in whatever NMP is trying to run as opposed to what they have done in the past under Vic.Quote:

You demand effort or sit their ass. The bench makes people hungry
Yep, that is what Vic did; it works.Quote:

Obviously we don't.
Amen! Playing time(or lack of)is the best motivator a coach has.Quote:

Here's the story: Vic is a basketball god and Blair is his little angel.Quote:

Final
Miss. State 41
Texas A&M 69
Myah Taylor 14 pts
Madison Hayes and Jessika Carter...both with 8 rebounds each, followed by Aliyah Matharu with 5 rebounds.

Jordan Danberry...another veteranQuote:

Also, need the coacihng staff on it's A game.
The 2 spots vacated by Jordan Danberry and Chloe Bibby are the bigger holes...glaring issues at these 2 positions right now. JaMya Mingo-Young appears to have hit a wall (back as far as several games ago). Madison Hayes has gotten the last 2 starts with 8 rebounds last game...the freshman is continuing to progress. Aliyah Matharu (started against Alabama) in the mix as well. Not getting overly much (though some intangibles she brings) out of Sidney Cooks at the 4 spot. (Note) Coach McCray Penson has indicated that she is limited due to her knees.
Not going to question the team's heart.
