I like Mox butā¦. the time is coming for us to look less like a disorganized mess. Weāre in year three. Iāve still got some optimism left but the same problems continuing to plague the team year after year is something that makes you just start to wonder about the coaching.
Iāll happily give her till the end of next year and be a positive supporter. But uhā¦ itās time to take a step.
Haha. Those are rookie numbers. In a couple of the early season games, the teams combined for 50+.
Yeah. My younger daughter was at the game with friends, and said it was rough. If they havenāt taken a step forward by next season, itāll be time for some serious reassessment. Itād be HER squad at that point, and, barring a ton of portal action not a particularly young or new group.
I could see CTE, Mox and Sanchez all on the hot seat at the same time.
Itās interesting how people feel about Sanchez because disorganization and turnovers ā¦. That has been Mox for her entire tenureā¦ I do like her excitementā¦ but execution has to be the norm not the exception.
Yeah, but the TOs were part of the trade off for a fast paced, up and down type of game. But 28 pointsā¦ā¦ā¦? I had high hopes for Mox and she is a 180 from what preceded, but not seeing even glimpses of an NCAA tournament quality team, which is a shame because Kymora would be fantastic on that quality of team.
Yeah, I think we all expected there to be that trade off as she switched the team to a faster paced transition-oriented offense. Naturally players who hadnāt played that way before might struggle at first and itād take a year or two to install the system and find players that fit it well. So didnāt stress me out at first. But now it doesnāt really feel like things are meaningfully improving. It just feels like a mess a lot of the time.
The optimal # of turnovers is not 0, as Tony seemed at times to believe, but itās also not (checks box score) 22, yeesh. (Although BC had 21, so.) We have to play smarter than that.
I think Mox has been given more leeway due to being compared to Tina Thompson, which was a completely unmitigated disaster as opposed to Sanchez vs. TB where it was more of a slow decline.
But some uncomfortable questions are gonna have to start to be asked about Mox if the play doesnāt turn around this season, weāre still pretty young and thin in the frontcourt but weāre not playing up to our capabilities with how much talent is on this roster. This should be a surefire NIT team with an outside shot at the NCAAT.
This doesnāt include the initial turnover, but shows the rest of that sequence:
And thanking you Serena!
Kidding. Thats awesome
Ohanian, a UVA alumnus, has committed a multi-year gift which is the second largest gift to womenās athletics in UVA history.
What do we think #1 was?
Proly the Griffins track n field?
Also ESPN story about it.
For all the sh$t talking about the UVa athletic program it just secured several million in additional funding in a 10 day period not bad
This is awesome. I wanna see Mox spending that money the same way her team plays basketball ā outta control 
More talent is always good, but short of a front court spot, Iām not sure I see a glaring talent problem with this current teamā¦
Not basketball specific but this is really well done
Agreed. Thatās not Dawn doing the voiceover, is it?
Itās Dawn
