Isn't that the reason the UT coach stepped down? Not making the tourney the past 2 seasons?? :thinking:

[injuredinmelee]

that was one of the reasons. She had been there FOREVER. Might be time for soem new blood.

the lady bears play tonight in the second round....gotta beat NC State in North Carolina to get to the sweet 16 for the 4th straight year, gonna be tuff but hopefully they can do it....at Baylor we know about the women's bracket, unfortunately that is what happens when your men's team sucks....

Real bracket? :rolleyes: he is only saying that cause the lady horns arent in it, its like the aggies a couple years ago..baylor wins a national championship in women's basketball and they say "its just women's basketball no one cares" which may be true for them until they swept us this year, I sure didnt get the impression from the aggies that no one cared then....just like i didnt get the impression from the horns that women's basketball wasn't "real" until these past 2 years....its an easy sport to disreguard if ur not doing well casue of the stigma of women's sports, however winning a national championship in women's bball is pretty much behind only football and men's basketball in prestige in college sports, i would say baseball follows closely in 4th....

btw, Bears lose to NC State in OT at NC State's gym...that is something that is messed up about college basketball, somehow you can host a NCAA game in the tourney, talk about an unfair advantage....

[Cameron Crazy]

Yeah, maybe next year they will be good! Duke girls will win it all!

#1 boys high school team would roll past the women's national champions...

I guarantee you Duncanville would destroy any D-1 college womens team

all major programs practice against men for now....i know there was a title IX lawsuit about this earlier this year where someone was suing trying to make the women use female practice players...at Baylor the coaches actually watch the later rounds of the intramural tourney from what i have heard to find players to practice with...
