Why does Rikea Jackson wear one blue and one green shoe?
Halftime
Miss. State. 38
Florida 27
Jessika Carter 11 pts, 9 rbs
Rickea Jackson 9 pts
Would hoped we would be farther ahead.
Way to not fight for your team coach. Bullshit
I know it’s a small sample only 8 games. And I have watched very little
But McCray better recruit better than Vic.. or this hire won’t go or end well...
It's getting a little too close toward the end. Only ahead by 7 with 2:38 to go, and that sort of lead can evaporate in a hurry.
We finally hit a 3.
I don't know a thing about playing or coaching basketbal, but the girls don't seem to do "the weave" like they did under Vic. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing, but they looked more organized to me when they did it.
Final
Miss. State 68
Florida 56
Jessika Carter 25 pts, 16, rbs, 2 blks, 2 stls
Rickea Jackson 16 pts, 5 assists, 4 rbs, 4 stls
(Notes) Aliyah Matharu took a hard fall in the game, best to her. Miss. State with 10 steals in the game. Team forced Florida into 16 turnovers. Held Florida to 14.3% from 3 point range (2-14). Also, they out rebounded Florida 40 to 34.
Lots of talk (and just so) about Rickea Jackson, but...keep an eye on Jessika Carter, starting to emerge into an SEC Player Of The Year type candidate as well.
Didn?t watch the game but I would never be mad or upset about winning especially on the road. Yes Coaches can be upset about how they played, but that is what watching tape and going over mistakes can help improve.
I think it too early to know ho McCray-Pinson will be as our HC.
I also think some had us rated way to high, just saying.
The intensity and defense just is not there like it was in the past. Pinson may be a defensive coach but she doesn’t demand defense.
The previous coach wouldn't put up with the crap we're seeing.
Vic was 8-2 around this time last year in terms of games played. Nikki is 7-2... It hasn't been this huge gap that some try to make it sound. Who knows if Nikki was the best hire, its way too early to know. But winning on that road at Florida who had a 7-3 record coming in isn't a bad win at all.
If we lose Matharu for an extended period we are in trouble
?T he previous coach wouldn't put up with the crap we're seeing.?
In fairness the whole team except three or four players were late for shoot around last season and he didn?t bench any of them. Many wouldn?t do the sign in roster he required. The issues Coach McCray-Penson is dealing with are the same ones Coach Schaefer dealt with last season.
She better not lose Sunday...
