NCAA Tournament: South Carolina

Re: NCAA Tournament: South Carolina

Will struggles in the tournament lead AJ to consider offers to move to a BCS school? I would guess his success at SDSU has his name on the radar? I know he turned down the Green Bay job a few years ago. Not intended as smack.

He's a guy with a family now so his rejection of GB is hard to put into context since his personal life has changed so much. He's proven he can coach. I hope he wants to retire here. He's so good at his job.

All around shooting from the arch is improving. So our current model of spot up shooters is getting lost in the speedy, athletic girl that now can shoot.

Re: NCAA Tournament: South Carolina

well that sucked. to answer hairball. colleges just like pros want to hire coaches that win in the post season. getting there is fine but win. a big nock on Marty Shottenheimer (sp) I believe when he was hired as coach at San Diego Chargers was he couldn't win in the playoffs after all his success in the reg season.

I was thinking the exact same thing today. No one knows but AJ and family is my guess. If he is anything like me, I would expect a move before his kid(s) get into school if it is going to happen.

IMO, it would have to be a HUGE jump to be considered.

Filbert - I can't believe you just posted that! Isn't that blasphemy in your house?

Jacks should be much tougher in the next 2 years. I see something special coming from Waytashek.

Great season ladies. Walk with your heads up and be proud of your season and in some cases - Eide, Lingle, Dietel great careers. Thanks for being a Jackrabbit. The teams our seniors have beaten and the places they have been is simply amazing. Congrats ladies.

Re: NCAA Tournament: South Carolina

Look at the games we play in conference, then look at the teams that SC play's all year long.....when we get to the NCAA'S we already have bad habits established,you can't get SEC ready in less than a week.

I wouldn't neccessarily say bad habits more like a lack of being pushed on a nightly basis. It is hard for a team to take the next step when the next best team they play is the second 5 in practice.

Re: NCAA Tournament: South Carolina

We need a tougher conference,so we can play against better athlete's other than early in the season, by the time the Ncaa's roll around, we are too conditioned to slow,etc.....we just can't adapt in less than a week to prepare.....SC stay's sharp all season long.....they are way more prepared than we are,just by virtue of that fact alone.

Liberty,marist,most mid majors have this disadvantage,although Creighton overcame this today and won....but all the stars have to align and you need to hit shots.....that never materialized for us today.

For me to feel we have a shot come tournament time,we'd have to blow all the Summit teams out of the water by 20 or more, the way BCS schools would(and the 2008-2009 team did),where i'd feel comfortable, not losing two games and winning others by less than 5 pts.These are high rpi teams,BCS schools wouldn't even have to break a sweat against them.

South Carolina had the top six rebounders in the game.

9, 7, 7, 6, 5, 4, we had three girls with 4.

What hurts is we were supposed to limit their rebounding,harder to do than say i guess.They did play some less athletic ,but none the less tall (6'3) women

Re: NCAA Tournament: South Carolina

like the general consensus is the Jacks will not succeed in the tournament until the quality of the other Summit teams improve.

Good game and good luck next season. I think this was one of the better games we played this season.

Lesson in post play, offensive rebounds, and desire to hustle on defense. Ouch. Tentative after muscled.
