A great positive is that the Irish return 4 of 5 starters. They lose Becca Bruszewski, who was a beast in the paint and a great leader but Achonwa is ready to take her spot, I expect a great run again next year without a doubt

Yup, ND will be one of the top 3 teams in the country next year with Tennessee and Stanford.

A wild Snorlax appeared and led Texas A&M to the national championship.

LMFAO

VBroke again.

Is this your way of coaxing me into fronting you more vBucks? Not this time, me bucko. You squandered what I so graciously zapped your way before.

You are now off the dshans dole.

Feel free to re-apply at a later date.

Agreed although I believe Stanford is losing their All-American Guard in Pohlen, but they still have their twins.

UConn will compete but I think they will have a very down year (for their standards), which will be great to see. They lose their main scorer in Moore.

Off the dshans dole!

A moment of liberal enlightenment.

What next, balance the vbucks budget?



(Yes, I know this isn't the Lep Lounge but as and Independent I would have posted similarly if ACamp wandered into the other camp.)

More parsimony (and a foray into tough love) than enlightenment.

A plethora of vBucks guarantees neither happiness nor contentment.

The girls played a great game. Sometimes the other team is just making shots when you aren't, or you have an unusually bad match-up. Second in the nation is pretty good and God bless Our Lady's ladies. Coach Muffet now needs to turn this in to Kelly-like recruiting success and we'll be a power in this sport; like we have been so close to being. [Can't always have Ruth Riley].

On recruiting: coach has three players [and maybe four] coming. There is a 5'4" point guard who appears to have some offensive liabilities unfortunately, and a 6'3" post who is a bit raw offensively but a big motor, and sounds like a gem-in-the-rough. The real diamond though is a 5'11" wing player who can really jump. This girl may be a real star under Coach Muffet's training. There does not seem though to be a player to replace Bruszewski. That sort of back-down-to-no-one type of player is pure gold. Thankfully Diggins and Novosel are you-can't-beat-me types too, but I'd like a "big" like that.

Pretty cool video I found that was made before the Championship game. The uploader for this video has a lot of cool behind the scenes videos for the Women's Basketball team
