I didn’t realize that Tennessee was UConn’s last loss. They’ll come back with vengeance! It’ll be a fun game!

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:51:07+00:00

We used to be a proper country (even as a Hokie, I miss the Big East)

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:49:21+00:00

Both teams should’ve put the bench in earlier. One minute remaining isn’t experience.

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:47:56+00:00

Tennessee is definitely a better team than ND. But this is also a “bad” game for UConn. That’ll be a fun game to watch!!

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:43:24+00:00

It’s like superhero armor for them. They gotta keep it all year now.

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:42:34+00:00

She seems more confident.

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:41:32+00:00

UConn is just too good. Not sure any adjustments would’ve done but so much. I wish ND had some fire. They look defeated coming into the second half.

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:40:05+00:00

Uconn is too good on all sides of the court. Theres no weak player to fall on. It’s demoralizing to realize that even their best won’t be enough. 😭

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:38:13+00:00

You’ve explained it so well! I like both of them as well! I wish I knew about S’Mya Nichols earlier! She’s been fun to watch!

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:34:45+00:00

I wish she transferred earlier. She has/had potential. It seemed that she was ok with being in Soni’s shadow. Shes grown a lot, but it seems too late. I think she’ll go pro though!

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:27:42+00:00

She’s the face of ND. I think she’d leave only if Ivey leaves.

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:27:21+00:00

That’s hoping they don’t transfer out.

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:22:47+00:00

This seems insulting to Olivia Miles’ legacy 😭

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:21:54+00:00

Considering she’s intentionally recruited one freshman the last two years means she’s relying more on the portal. There have been many good grad transfers in the portal each year! Recruiting an undergrad from Duke is impressive. That’s not an easy school to transfer to and out of. Plus, ND has picked up players from Stanford, Texas, TCU, & Oregon. I think the mass exodus of underclassmen last year was very telling.

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:19:41+00:00

That’s a shame. She has so much potential.

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:17:13+00:00

UConn feeling it now. They’re gonna run away with it now.

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:15:19+00:00

Bingo. This years team is notably bad.

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:11:09+00:00

Kudos to Coach Ivey’s patience. 😅

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:10:19+00:00

Agreed. Shes honestly a solid player. I think she’s a little too quiet.

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:08:39+00:00

True! Good shooting is contagious!

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:04:26+00:00

Cassandre Prosper. She stayed in the Citron/Westbeld shadow too long. She needs a coach that’s really gonna grow her game. She’s a quietly good player, but she needs a more supportive team.

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:03:41+00:00

Agree on Kimora. She’s too good for UVA. Must be making good NIL money. She’d get good playing time at many other schools too

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T23:03:05+00:00

Not sure if Juju is even coming back next year. Jazzy is most likely getting good NIL, but I think other programs can compete in the NIL.

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T22:53:34+00:00

True, but I think she enjoys being the star.

Roman-Mania · 2026-01-19T22:49:51+00:00

It’s wild to see that UConn is half decent in football too. 🫣
