    From what I have heard, Jones’ strength is as a great defensive player with a huge wingspan. Lily will score a lot of points. We move Stobbart to a wing and let her fire away from the 3! Remember, we get Nina back next year as well. What a line up!

    Stobbart is now becoming the biggest headache for our opponents for the rest of conference play. How can you stop a 5 on the perimeter that can.knock down the 3?. No way. OK leave the paint open. Let Konrad and friends pound in the paint. Good gsme Aggies.
  • Morgan Bertsch signing with Dallas wings....
    My home town girl (Santa Rosa HS) best Aggie ever. Maybe she can come to Davis and teach the fake left-right back spin to basket to our new bigs. It is an impossible shot to defend. It apparently worked in Russia. Maybe our government should look into this as a defensive ploy?

    Regarding Dixon’s return into the Aggie mantle, I have some observations that are a bit more credible since my dear brother is a Fresneck. Tedford was a great coach, but his best attribute as a coach was his incredible charisma as a recruiter and motivater. Even as his health began to fail sometime back, he was always there with his players even as his assistants really took over the main coaching duties for FS. He would recall about sleeping on an air mattress in his office at cal when he worked so late he did not have the energy to go home. So, there you have it as to why Dixon may have gone to FS. With Tedford gone FS is just a very different place. Also, UC Davis is a much better place for a quality person like Dixon IMHO.

    Great night for the Ags. I will sleep very well tonight.

    Why don’t we go back to using a fullback? Hawk was a fullback. The Niners use Kyle Juszczyk very effectively at that position.

    I don’t want to get paranoid, but can we hang on to Ambagsheer? He had a lot of interest and he is a beast. Now only a verbal commit so I think he could change his mind.

    Just an observation. There are probably are not a lot of UC Davis alums in Hi, but there are some significant ones. I am distantly related to one of the big ranching families on Kauai. This family has sent most if not all of their boys to Davis; their girls mostly went to either Oxford or Cambridge. Most recently to my knowledge it was a Greenwell grand daughter that came to Davis by the name of Katy Dollar a few years back. A very impressive gal. Hey, they could be in the stands tonight? Short Inter island flight- no problemo. Go Ags!

    Well, I hope we get them both.

    Wow. These are very big guys. 310-320 range. Mermea seems very astute and acts like an Aggie. Schasa is probably bigger, but no interview or size on record that I can see. So, I dont know how we are now getting these guys now. I hope the Tucker episode wont effect this. We will see.

    I think we have been very lucky over the past few seasons in avoiding injuries; certainly season ending injuries have been zero. But they are a fact of life and the rule of averages may now be coming to haunt us. Also, we have been on a very long winning run with the twins and Morgan and that cannot go on forever. So I view this as a rebuilding year. But i love to see the gals win every time and I’ll be rooting for them tonight.

    I’m in my 70’s and just had meniscus surgery 3 months ago and I am 100% fine now. It is a very minor outpatient arthroscopic procedure that takes about 30 minutes. Great signing and he will be a great RB for us. Big and fast. No worries on that injury.
  • Aggies have a new Defensive Coordinator???
    Chidera Uzo Diribe seems a very good hire at DL. We will see and hope. . .
  • Aggies have a new Defensive Coordinator???
    So as I see it, there are five other defensive coaches still on staff: Huppert, Eisenstadt, Brown, Brady, and Hicks. Do they go as well? Aggiebro. . . ?
  • Aggies have a new Defensive Coordinator???
    Aggiebro- no ruffled feathers here. You just have presented some very startling news which is somewhat hard to absorb. Apparently you do have good sources. Tucker is leaving, so you have some good cred here. Keep on it!
  • Aggies have a new Defensive Coordinator???
    Still, to pin all of these worse numbers on the coaching staff is problematical. Could equally be personnel deficiencies or harder schedule which no one would argue were not a factor in the last season. We will see. Tucker has been with Hawk forever so still a big surprise.
  • Aggies have a new Defensive Coordinator???
    “This last year was an eyeopener. We got out coached in a lot of games”? To my knowledge this is the first time this issue has come up. No player, coach, commentator, or sports writer has even suggested this was a problem this year. Loss of Doss, injuries, ineligible player yes! Coaching NO! Also if Tucker left voluntarily how is this evidence that he was a poor coach? Aggiebrother, with all due respect, allegations like this need to be supported with facts or be better left unsaid IMHO.

    Which is where I am now: flu. . . . Not bad but close!

    This was a good game to watch after the fact so that you can concentrate on details. And i did that with Diane and others. I think Diane is an outlier in the BWC. He is so overwhelmingly more physically gifted than any other Mid Major big that I am aware of and certainly i n the BWC. But for the commentators to say this man is NBA material at this point I do not agree. He is big and long, but he is also not disciplined, perhaps poorly coached and pouty to boot. No charm there. He is no Chima IMHO. But the ESPN guys got it right when they commented that the UC Davis Frosh players, Pepper, Manjon, etc. were the most impressive players on the court today. Good game for the Ags away!! Is Fuller injured?
