Wow. 6 out 11 on the squad foreign players! Should be a good physical match up for the Ags.

I think that we have a very new weapon in Shorts. We have not had an effective slasher driver in D1 times. This adds a dimension that cannot be overstated at this point. Chima knows it will only make him better and he gave a big shout out to Shorts about that. Great times for aggie BB; men and woman both of course.

Still think it weird that slac is left out. Were they asked? Did they ask?

Cal just lost to St. Mary’s who lost wash st. So we’ve are doing ok. Maybe with Chima les can break into the Australian recruiting market. The aussies play a very good physical game of basketball.

Tj shorts was just amazing. We have not had a point like this in decades. Changes the whole dimension on how we are defended.

Pacific with 7 foreign players. Ditto cal. Us 2. Not good.

Beer at Hamilton court?

Keeping everything in perspective, cal woman’s BB (#24) just beat Seattle at home 87-67 which SFChron called a “blowout.” Ags beat Seattle 79-53 away-no news. Absolutely minimal coverage of this outstanding team by bee, chronicle DE or anyone for that matter. For once I wish Stanford was on the schedule because I think we would beat them this year and get some media attention. With this rant I feel much better.

The last time I looked an FCS school had to average 15,000 fans for two years to even qualify for FBS status. Our stadium does not even have that capacity much less the attendance. Next there’s the scholarship money issue: 22 more schlarships for FBS. Next there’s the TIX issues- woman’s sports expenditures will have to equal the men’s sclarships increase. Next there’s the operational expenses issue: at least 4-5 million dollars in new coaches, travel, equipment, etc. etc. . . I believe only Liberty was able to do this recently and they fill their 19,000+ stadium every game. So, Cal UCLA are the least of the worries. CSN just a lot of blah, blah, blah for its readers and no helpful insight at all.

Yes the hornets were very energized for this one. Ags not so much but good enough. I thought some calls against the ag were -/- but who cares at this point. The best news for me is that dani is back and strong. Also very impressed with Kourtney a lot of minutes out there under pressure an she excelled. Cierra and Nina very good in their roles. Also, do not try and press the Ags they are way too good for that stuff. Good game.

Something seriously wrong with the audio. I am getting game from Hawaii with this stream.

It’s money thing. Anyone who saw the stream form Washington on Pac12 stream could see the difference in plain sight. Night and day from BW stream of even BSky stream both of which were terrible. Don’t know if the money is there for the fix.

Double-triple teaming Chima has to allow for some very good outside shooting. We did not do that tonight. We will see a lot more of that as the season goes on. BW teams will take a very long look at this game. lucky win for us

Wrestling dad? Who was he? I think he even was an alum. If he’s watching we are watching to see his Next move!!!

I think one of the things that is going somewhat unnoticed is that the Aggies can now substitute in two very formidable players in Nina and Cierra and give Pele, Dani and Rachael a needed rest. The height they bring and the width they play just sets a new tone that the opposition has not seen. Tough to coach against that.

Wasn’t there a parent of a rower that sued the university for removing rowing? That has to be 8+ years ago, but maybe he would step up a help fund the new program if that what he wanted to do back in the day. I cannot remember his name but he was over the top pissed that this sport got the chopping block. If not your daughter, maybe someone else’s daughter???

Well what do you know? UC Davis still has a sizable woman’s rowing team as a club sport and has a website for recruiting and news. So, the boats are there, the interested woman are there, the facilities are there, but it costs a whomping $600 a quarter to join. And møßt interesting is that they have had some very good teams rowing against big schools with scholarships. No brainer four me. It will be woman’s rowing. These are big teams with a lot of members which Title IX will demand. Probably will not provide much in the way of scholarships, but that’s OK for starters.

Poor sac must be very upset with this. Have they ever tried for BW membership? Their travel cost must be off the charts.

Mean but true.

Or maybe nini is just stepping up>
