I'll never reproach her. She played the entire ballgame and growing urgency drove much of what happened with her. It was extremely unfortunate. I hurt for her because I know she's the type who owns it. But the world needs more people who take on accountability.
She's never shot well when given a chance. We all want her to be a knockdown shooter, but she just isn't. I guess Dawn gave her a shot because Fletcher was such a disaster. So Thompson came in instead of Fletcher and Zia moved over to point. Unfortunately, the lineup wasn't much of an improvement.
At this point in the season, Dawn should have been shrinking her rotation, not expanding it. Look at the minutes played by LSU yesterday.
Maybe yes, maybe no. We have a 10 player roster that will be one of the 3 or 4 most talented rosters in the country next year.
She's the only one that I can see maybe coming back but I think she'll move on as well
And just like Indiana State, lost in the final. Devastating. The Hawkeyes have had the same starting lineup for 3 straight years. This was their chance to get that ring.

I do too.#7 way too early
I like the spot. It would be nice to surprise some people for a change.
UConn back on top in Way-Too-Early Top 25 for 2023-24
The 2022-23 season is in the books. Where will Iowa and LSU start off next season? South Carolina is ready to reload, but UConn is the early favorite.

They are the National Champions. SC has a large lead in returning talent and had the #2 recruiting class. Until they beat us, the SEC will still go through South Carolina. I was at the game just now and in one of her on-court interviews, Mulkey stated is that it take talent and a little bit of luck and their luck was that they avoided a second matchup with South Carolina. We are not relinquishing anything.
Your perspective is the realistic one right now. I hope it doesn't develop this way, but appearances are that the SEC torch has been passed. With respect to the coaches involved, we had every reason to believe that Dawn would catch Mulkey in national championships this weekend. Instead of that, the Dime Store Queen has Dawn doubled up. It's a gut-punch and not what we anticipated or wanted.
Yes, but Aliyah couldn't be Aliyah with the bad calls. She was second guessing herself and she wasn't allowed to be her dominant self. The team responded well but when our best player is pushed out the game it changes everything else for the team, especially on the defensive end.
I don't disagree with you that Aliyah playing 10 minutes is worth 4 points. I'm only saying that even with her missing those minutes we still could have won.
No idea what she means but I would assume she knows she has things to improve upon. Whatever the reason I’m just glad she’s coming back!
Perhaps there is some type of announcement video or they are finalizing information with their agents for the pros.
The deadline is 48 hours after their last game day. So whatever their decision was at 12:00 am Apr 3rd is finalized but we the public still don't what their decision was. Considering there has been no birdie tweet I just assume no one is staying but honestly who knows.
