We knew it was going to be a long, tough year for Coach White and the team. I was hoping that her excellent performance against Duquesne meant that Jasmine Whitney’s extreme inconsistency might be behind her, but then she shoots 0 for 10 from the floor in this game.

Course Pitt was playing another top 10 team (though one missing their top scorer). Hopefully Pitt can compete with the bottom half of the ACC...

Go Pitt.

Sunday will tell us a lot in that regard. I would actually guess that we'd be a small favorite at home over BC if there were actually a line on the game. They need to shoot the ball a lot better though.

Again same ole, same ole. Nothing new with this. The better women teams
in the ACC are on a whole different level than Pitt's women. As for Whitney.
she has and will have a decent game on occasion, but she is nowhere
the talent one would see on upper half of the ACC teams. She appears to me
to be a better than average athlete, but just an average Bball player.
Again, this a mid level talent wise team. We could compete in the
Atlantic 10. I watched St. Francis against us and they were terrible. We did
beat them in a very close game, and IMO they were terrible. Two other very
good athletes are Walsh and Bradley, but both are not above average Bball
players. I really like Walsh's hustle and ability to hit the three. Neither would see
significant floor time on a decent ACC team.
I may seem overly critical, but I'm just being realistic. I do see some very
good coaching here, but you still have to have some talent. The answer
will be in the recruiting. It'll take a few years.
