    I did not understand Shrews rotation in the last minute of the game. Having Koehler come in for defense and Towt come in on offense. I would think you would want to do it the other way around. Towt would seem to offer next to nothing on offense in a late game situation except for rebounding...

    Watched some highlights, but did not get a good feel for the game. But a win is a win. If the Irish had been able to take care of business against Georgia tech and California, they would be vying for a double bye. We'll see how they do Sunday against Virginia.

    I agree. The growth trajectory has been remarkably slow. Time is running out on her to hit that growth spurt. And you may be right, that she is too nice of a person to be a college head coach.

    I would also say that while benching a player is your best option to get to a player to improve, we unfortunately have not had that luxury. There was really no one behind Miles to play her. The fact of the matter is that Ivey's roster management has been her biggest downfall to date. I can't...

    Right. Certainly, the issue between Hannah and Olivia was a catalyst to some of the dysfunction that persisted in the team. But I suspect it was more than that. It was no secret that both Olivia and Maddy were playing awful defense most of the season. Maybe the separation had more to do with...

    The social media post from Hannah occurred during the summer I believe in the off season. Who's to say Ivey did not address the situation and Miles and Westbeld just did not want to get over it?

    Fair. And that problem is hopefully fixed with the hire of Garrity.

    I’m guessing Ivey’s seat is far from hot. If they were going to fire her it would have been in the off season with her terrible roster management. She has that problem fixed with the recruiting class and based on the transfers football got, I can imagine it will be easier for the women’s team as...

    I think Hannah will come back for her senior year. She has already talked about her excitement for the incoming freshman.

    If this roster was being coached by prime Mike Brey, we would be a top 25 team. We have the shooters and talent to make some noise. However, this roster is stuck with a coach who does not have any functional offense. And you can see that the team has given up on defense. Oh, and I can't...

    Watched the highlights. Defense looked on point today. Looks like it will be a continual jekyl and hyde for the rest of the season. We have no shot against UCONN, will be interesting to see how we fare against louisville.

    The Shrewsberry's are the very definition of entitlement. He thinks fans should flock in droves just because he and his son are part of the team. He could care less about connecting with fans. We just moved Brian Kelly to men's basketball. The program is not in a good place right now. You...

    I was only able to watch the highlights, but the defensive effort looked poor. One of the worst defensive performances I can remember from an ND women's basketball team. It's hard for me to imagine conditioning being the reasoning as they have not had a lot of games due to finals and the...

    I don't understand how a college coach making millions of dollars can't run a functional offense. Like how is the gameplan to isolate Haralson all the time. We have the shooters to run something much better.

    Agreed. He was very poor yesterday. However, your only true point guard right now is Imes. But strong athletic defenders can make life difficult for him. So you need help between Harrelson and Mohammed until Burton gets back. Unless Zackary somehow gets up to speed and can be another...

    This was the first men's game I attended in years. We played down to the competition. Harrelson looked lost most of the time. Scored mostly on his natural ability but I am not confident he is a point guard that can effectively run a team and its offense. Mohammed was even worse. Certa is...

    Did not get to watch the game, but great win for the program. We will see if this generates momentum.
