lol don’t shoot the messenger I’m just going by what the ladies said. They said their first “official” game is against UConn. So I assume they will have an exhibition type game before then and head to UConn for the start of the season.
In the Baylor post-game presser after winning the Big 12 Tourney championship, Vic said "that game today, ya'll, was won in August and September on the track. I believe it, I've always believed it, [and] my teams have typically played well this time of year because of it . . . " Funny thing is, I thought this was a picture taken before today's run. But the pics posted to the official WBB account make it clear that they were actually running when it was still a little dark. So this is actually an after-the-run pic.
It must be an after the shower pic too, because not one of the girls has a single bead of sweat on her.
The only indication I got that it was a post-run photo was the redness of Shaylee's face. A clear sign that Zilner has done a good job (again) this offseason.
That's what I thought was happening. I could very easily be wrong though.
Couple of other thoughts: (1). He singled out Kyndall as having a great summer as well, so all the signs of hard work from her that we've seen on social media isn't just bluster. The coach is noticing; (2). He was really excited about bringing in "54 PTs and 27 RBs" in transfers from the portal. That really is amazing when you put it that way. I'm looking forward to his first presser towards the end of September when he'll have more time to elaborate on things (like Jordana's status). You would think the asst. coach issue will be resolved by then as well.
South Carolina's schedule does not include Texas:
Well that's ok. We might see them in the Final4 if things go the way we hope for anyway. Also, Stanford is slowly putting their non-conf. schedule out. If there's any hope to see us play them in Austin this year, both programs have a gap in their schedules right now between 12/3 and 12/17. So that weekend of 12/10-11 is open and ripe for a nationally televised matchup of likely Top 5 programs:
I saw that the other day. Stanford doesn't have games listed for the first 2 weeks of the season (starting November 7). There's a slim chance they could come to Austin the first week of the season, but that wouldn't necessarily fly with our players saying their first official game of the season is at UConn on the 14th (which is still odd to me).
Yeah... I've been wondering about that first game not being until Nov 14. I'm wondering if that's our first official game as it stands NOW, and perhaps the schedule leading up to that date is still being finalized??? I sure hope that's the case.
It is expensive but I’ll go to both games and since I live in Dallas it will end up being a lot cheaper than when I go to Austin for home games (is how I justified it lol)
