I thought I’d heard that about Sam. Hope so. And I think I heard that about Dale too? But not sure, and I haven’t heard anything at all about the rest. Cam Taylor would be the most important one, but it’s also just about having enough bodies.

As I look at that it’s also worth noting that we have zero frontcourt players outside of the upperclassmen. Mox has some roster balancing ahead of her.
That’s a big hole in the front court. Which shouldn’t be surprising considering the depth and size issues the team has had this year. But seeing it laid out I’d love to see Mox land a transfer big to get some balance in there. The ACC has played big the past few seasons and there are a few bigs graduating, but I’m guessing the Hoos are gonna need some size.
Yeesh, 22 points at halftime. We desperately need to get Sam back. Pitt is just denying the interior and daring us to shoot threes… and without Sam we have no one who’s good at that.
Lost our last 7 in a row, 10 of our last 11. Obviously things have kind of fallen off the rails after a great start with injuries/roster issues, but we’ve had second-half leads in several of these games.
#22 NC State today, then #9 Duke up next.
Coach will have to find a way to put a positive spin on things for the returners next year, because it’s going to be tough in conference again. Need some leadership from the guard position to settle things down when we have those late leads, imo— frenetic pace seems by design, but need a different gear when we are already in control of a game, not more variability.
I know everyone loses track of the schedule, so… we’re playing right now if you’re interested. ACCNX (or MASN if you’re in the blackout area). Currently leading NC State 10-7, late first quarter.
And Dragon we’re as frenetic and chaotic as ever lol
We’re up by 4 at the half. Compare to the last time we played State, when we were down 11 at the half on the way to a 25-point defeat. And since then we’ve lost 2 of our 3 best players! Really seeing a total team effort here.
