    Two straight Final Fours....

    Wow. Unless you are one of the very few traditional powers that is very hard to do. Outstanding job by the coaches and players.

    Amazing the shape these starters must be in. They play full out all the time and all of them play 35+ minutes. We basically get no bench scoring at all against quality competition.

    Can't believe we made it this far with all his dumb ass decisions** credit to you though, when we lose next week it will be because he ran em to hard and you will come thumping your chest.

    Holmes is a pretty good sub. Don't know how many she scored tonight but it was >0. Danberry looks pretty good at times too.

    While Holmes, Danberry and Bibby can spell the starters for a few minutes none of them are really scoring threats. BIG dropoff in the scoring department when they are in. Holmes is the best sub we have and helps give Morgan a break but we play our starters to death because we have to.

    Danberry is maybe the most athletic player on our team. She should get better and Coach Schaefer is really depending on her for next season.

    Yes, she's athletic but she doesn't make perimeter shots. What makes our team so tough to deal with this year is that we have four starters around Big T that you can't back off of because they can all make perimeter shots. Holmes, Danberry and Bibby are all pretty low percentage shooters unless they are right at the basket.

    Dude, Bibby can shoot. They see her shoot everyday. Danberry is a slasher and can get to the rack. The PG we redshirted can do it all and is a shooter. Don't worry about Jazz

    We will be a lot taller team next year....and I expect a lot of improvement from Bibby and Danberry.

    Bibby is a 41% shooter and is 33.3% from behind the arc. Try again.

    I guess there's no better time than now to start questioning Vic's decision making skills***

    Hopefully you don't ever make legitimate decisions as concerns our WBB program

    Bibby makes a lot of shots. I've seen Holmes make quite a few jump shots (TBF, i haven't seen her statistics), and agreed on Danberry overall.

    I think they could accomplish more if we relied on them more but those seniors demand minutes and usually do damn well with them.

    The 96 men’s team had little quality depth.

    Yes, this team very much reminds me of our 96 men's team as far as the rotations. Just hope our women's team doesn't fall off next year anything like our men's team did after losing all of those starters from the 96 Final Four team.

    When was the last time we had two straight Omaha runs (1990’s), two straight BCS playoffs, or two straight men’s final-4s?

    An incredibly impressive accomplishment

    It was still a very successful season. We got more national recognition out of that than anything MSU athletics has ever done, till we hit #1 in football. The only other thing that comes close was beating UCONN last year.

    Thats great. But we've had very successful seasons for a while now, its time to get a ring.

    You could say this is the case in all of the big 3. Except mens hoops but we are getting there
