🏀 UVA women's basketball 2023- 2024

Seems like our perimeter rotation is well stocked with talent with Mo, Yonta, O, Clark, etc. Need our tall folks to be effective/healthy.

Yeah agreed. Her going full hero ball at the start of possessions would’ve been a bit easier to stomach if she didn’t miss so many relatively easy layups. Mo I think is gonna be a revelation for the offense much in the way that LP was when he arrived as a 1st year for TB.

Backcourt projects to be much stronger. I can’t wait to see what role O carves out on this team. 6’3" guard that can create a lot of matchup problems. Watched her play a bunch for Louisa. My hometown plus my Cousin’s daughter played on the state championship team.

who is that GIF

Jk nice piece

I think the improvements to depth and the backcourt are going to be huge. PGs who can initiate offense and control a game will be a big difference. Also having shot makers on the perimeter will be a massive asset.

Agreed all around.

And lol thanks Dragon. Been too long. Realized I needed to check some of my own takes about the men’s team, and there’s no better place to do so haha

Any chance Jay’s sister Mia Woolfolk comes here? She’s a top 100 in the 24 class. 6’3” post player.

At the, surprisingly, urging of my wife we just picked up season tickets for the women’s games. I knew they were inexpensive but even so was genuinely shocked at how cheap they were.

What were they if you don’t mind me asking? I got lower bowl tickets for when the women’s team comes to Atlanta for 7 bucks a piece i was shocked

I think my season tickets were $75. For general-admission seating (which at women’s games is still great), they were like $50. I’ll spend more than that on concessions.

$80/seat and that’s because we splurged on good seats.

During Ryan’s waning days, I took the girls and one of their friends to see a women’s game (well, a bunch of them). One time, for an ACC game, we had a chance to get the seats along the court right next to the hoop. Was a little terrifying sitting there with 3 little kids but it worked out great and we got to hand out of bounds balls back to the refs a bunch which was fun… By far the best seats I’ve ever bought for a sporting event (I threw out the first pitch at. uVA baseball game one time but that was different) and it was $20/seat.

Agree on the baseline thing! Last year I got baseline seats for one game when my wife and daughter wanted to go. It was so fun sitting that close! (My daughter got to throw one loose ball back. A small thing but it’s cool.) A great thing to do at least once, especially with your kids.

Yeah, absolutely. Totally different world. Like, you can see the players sweating and hear them yelling to each other, you can really see how tall and fast they are, and even hear some of what the coach is telling the players during time-outs. Amazing experience, would highly recommend.

We took the kids this year to the first day of the ACC tournament in Greensboro for $1 a ticket and sat first row mid court on the floor. That was for the full day session. My boys remarked multiple times how big the guys were.
Any time you have a chance to get to the first day it’s really cool the access you have … got to chat with Cory Alexander too in between games.

I’m seeing it show up on the ESPN app, both on my phone and on AppleTV. Maybe when 4 o’clock rolls around I’ll get an error message but for now I’m crossing my fingers I’ll be able to stream it.
