The shooting has been absolutely atrocious since they returned from the Covid shutdown. Have to find the shooting touch again before UCF. The good news is that the defense and rebounding have all been solid. 

Believe we were o fer 8 or 9 before hitting our first 3.  Just don't know how we replace Mununga and Leveritt next year.  They control the boards.  Both are tenacious.

The teams mindset is certainly stronger. The effort is there. Got to get back to the 35% 3 point shooting we saw before the break.

Give it to Jose for that pep talk going into the fourth. Totally different game in the fourth. I think it was a 15-0 run right? A win's a win. I'm not blaming the covid pause or anything, but it shows you they're fighting through it.

Alvarez has struggled mightily since the return. She is 3 for 17 in the last 3 games, and her minutes have almost dropped in half. We need her 3 point shooting.

Not sure if it was the pep talk or the law of averages.  Some shots had to drop.  But agree about the fight in this team.

Good for the Lady Bulls to fight through these games and play well in 4th quarter to get the wins.

However, we got 3 though games coming up in a row to finish the regular season, Houston, and 2 in a row against the Knats.  Both pretty **** good teams.

If we don't figure it out soon and play back to our capabilities for a full 40 minutes, we could easily get beat.  

Jose will do everything he can do to get them going.  Maybe the shooting percentages will come back up now and we got this out of our system (law of averages).

Houston is a big game for us today.  Its gonna be tough one.  They are 3rd in the Conference standings and are 11-4 in conference and 14-5 overall.  We need to win this one to have a realistic shot at winning the regular season championship.  Win today, and even split with ucf and we get the #1 seed.  Lose today, then we will have to sweep ucf.

May have been clairvoyant. The ladies look flatter than flat today. Better tighten up in the second half.
