  • Bertsch drafted by the Dallas Wings
    I had read a little about Morgan looking to the pro ranks but there wasn’t much buzz. And honestly I didn’t know the draft was happening until I got an espn update. Seems odd that they have the draft less than a week after the ncaa championship.

    Regarding the recruiting help, here's a brief clip from one of the incoming recruits...she certainly has a lot of the same attributes as Morgan.

    Awesome news. Congrats to Morgan! Great news for the program too

    yeah he missed the big west tournament for the birth of his first born. He’s going to be an imposing lawyer.

    I liked Monson and thought his game could take another step forward his senior year. But he had already graduated and decided to go to law school in Utah (forget where). Les does favor the perimeter players, and seems to always have at least one stretch 4/5, but also knows he has to have some bulk for defense and rebounds. JT and Goode are prime examples of the big guys that Les likes.

    I don't believe we've ever had a graduate transfer. Not sure if Coach Les isn't a fan of it, or if he just has never found the right match. Certainly seems like this would be the year to get some big experienced player in here to fill the hole in the middle.

    Thanks for the links! Can not wait to watch these guys, along with the other new recruits, play for the Ags! Certainly seem like high quality individuals and we will definitely need their contributions next year. With the 5 seniors, and at least 1 transfer out, there are a lot of minutes to be had. Coach Les doesn't really rely on true freshman too often, but that may change next year.

    Per verbal commits Gio Nelson is transferring. Not too surprising considering he got very little run this year. Good luck to the young man wherever he ends up.

    Not that we need to post every offer out there, but verbal commits (via twitter) says we offered 2019 PG Kolton Mitchell out of Florida. I would have thought that with Squire and incoming commit Ezra Manjon, we'd be set at PG for a couple of years. 2020 I could see, but 2019 just feels odd. I guess we'll see what happens...

    That's interesting. He would be a solid addition to another mid-major team, or even a Pac-12 squad. Seems strange to want to transfer given that UCI will be the favorite again next year.

    Yeah I saw that, too. It was down at the Honda Center. Wonder if Joe gave him some hints on any dead spots on the court?

    In case anyone is interested, Joe Mooney's brother, Matt, is a starting guard for Texas Tech, who will play Michigan State in the final four on Saturday. He had 17/5/2 in their win over #1 seed Gonzaga last weekend.

    Totally agree on the bright future. We have some holes, of course, but I do think we have replacement talent, whether it comes from the current bench players, or new recruits. You mentioned two players that I'm excited to see develop. Stobbart is already a strong defender and rebounder and the Stanford game showed she has offensive skills that she can develop. And Konrad showed this year that she is a smart and energetic player. She'll need to work on her shot but that's very doable.

    All I know for sure is that this Coach Gross and the coaching staff will get the most out of the talent, and if I had to place money on who wins both the BW regular season and Tournament, it's got to be the Ags.

    Well, rough ending to a wonderful season. Yesterday's game just shows you the difference in size and athleticism between mid-majors and the top tier teams. I know that in quarters 2-4 we played them within about 10 points, but honestly, I think Stanford could have won by whatever point total they wanted. They have a classy coaching staff and clearly didn't want to embarrass the Ags. Nice to see a little glimpse of next year with Stobbart. And it was a pretty good showing by the Aggie fan base.

    Congratulations to the 3 great seniors. I will miss watching them play!

    Iowa pulled it out, 66-61. Saves the upset spotlight solely for UCD

    The rest of the BW is really going to need to step up next year. Both Hazzard and Leonard are Juniors.

    I know there is a financial incentive for us to root for other BW teams in the tourney, but above that, it's nice to see the big west getting some national recognition.
  • MBB Big West Conference Tounament March 14-16
    I missed most of the game, but it sounds like UCI was able to handle the tough K St defense. Way to go!
  • MBB Signs 3 New Players
    JUCO PF Luka Barišić (6-9, -, 2★) committed to UTSA. We'll need height from somewhere else.
