Hays just continues to be a total nothing when on the floor. She doesn’t need to be all-BT, just hold her own when Heiden is on the bench. She can’t do that…even against lesser competition. I think that is going to be the one glaring weakness on this team.

Well that and their defense appears to be bad.

We're getting killed anyway, I'd like to see Jan play Hays a bunch of minutes here and force her to speed up.

I was optimistic for her, but that just might be what she is. Either way you have to bring in a portal big next year.

Sounds like something that @Soda Popinski would say.

 

[Hawk24]

Made it respectable at least.

 

[Lil Scamp]

Not a terrible game for a team who is still coming together

I'm still very optimistic

 

[Creed]

How do you know where and when they come?

Ok, I'm coming around to your point of view. North Carolina looking way worse against South Carolina than Iowa did against UCONN

Would you like to see them come together

They need to just play small with Woliczko at the 5 in those minutes. The Hays minutes have been brutal.

 

[Stomper15]

What a name.

Travis’ kid hopefully
