Ladies open with Valley at 7:00

[She Mate Me]

This feels like a really pivotal season if we are to hang onto any shred of what Vic built here.

If they start winning, the fans are gonna show up and Purcell's got a chance to build the program back to prominence.

Team is loaded with experienced players at the guard positions. It feels like the key is finding a consistent post presence. If Jessika Carter can find her old form, problem mostly solved. If not, he's got transfers from Louisville and Miami who were highly recruited HS players.

Depth shouldn't be an issue like it was last year.

I'm interested. You can get some gauge, even vs Valley. A Vic team would beat them by 60+. I'll be disappointed if we don't win by at least 40 and put up 90+ points.

28-8 after 1Q. Powe, the frosh from Meridian started and scored 8 with 2 threes.

Shot lights out. Lots of good guards and Jessika started and played fine.

ETA 40-8 early in the 2nd. State on a 23-0 run. Feels pretty Vic-like right now.

We need him fired. This won't fly in the sec. Giving up 8 points just isn't good enough. Im done with this circus.

We are incredibly deep and talented. I know the competition is weak, but we are passing the eye test big time in the 1st half.

 

[She Mate Me]

55-18 at the half.

Shot 75% from the field. 6 of 13 from three.

All that with a single pt and 5 assists from our best player, Annie Hayes.

Smaller ball makes for better 3 point percentage

FINAL: Mississippi State 104, Mississippi Valley 47

Good start. Not quite 60 so more work to be done I guess.

Since most of the points were scored by players who weren't playing for us last year, I'll let the lapses in the 4th quarter slide.

North Alabama Friday. They're retiring Latoya Thomas's #.

Chance to get a resume win next week on the road at #23 South Dakota State, who won the WNIT last year and went to the NCAAs in 2021.

I don't want him back but must acknowledge that cohen was finally starting to figure out hiring coaches. Softball, baseball, mens and womens basketball looking good early, and even soccer and volleyball are better than in the past. Love Leach but still TBD on how good. Overall a pretty good set of coaches.

Softball he had no choice due to timing. Baseball was a second hire, womens bb was a second hire. Jans was picked for him. If I got as many second chances as Cohen, hell. I could rule the world.

That would be the most M State thing ever: the AD we lost finally figured out how to make hires and AU takes way off.
