Re: 2023-24 Season

This team is way better and has more potential than any Sharon Dawley team, even including the ones with Cierra Dillard

Re: 2023-24 Season

It has been easy to be down on this team this year. That said, Tory's first year was 9-21 overall, 3-13 in conference. That was with only 5 basketball players + Megan Burke from the soccer team. I do think there are ways to get more than 3 conference wins.

Re: 2023-24 Season

The team is still learning to play with each other, IMO. From what I have heard, there are some injuries that people should recover from before conference play. There may also be a potential academic eligibility issue and I know that someone on their 2nd transfer was denied a waiver. The team has po...

Re: 2023-24 Season

Women's Media day is tomorrow, October 26th.

Should be interesting to see where other coaches think we stack up against the conference. Also interested to see if Kulesza or anyone can get preseason honors.

Re: 2023-24 Season

Considering what they lost, I think your expectations are a bit high. I very much hope to be proven wrong. Just to clarify, I said what I thought a good season would be, not what I expect. Kulesza is a very solid player and I've liked what I have seen from Williams in terms of fewer turnovers. Lily...

Re: 2023-24 Season

Today, men's basketball preseason rankings announced. Am very interested to see tomorrow's release of the women's, usually it is one day later. I don't have much to go on honestly except some of the clips they have been showing. I think a good season for Leflar to start would be a .500 conference re...

Re: 2023-24 Season

Sydd to Louisville. I was partially right, she goes to the ACC but thought she would go to Pitt. Louisville is better than Pitt

Re: 2023-24 Season

Ber’Nyah Mayo confirmed to St. John's https://twitter.com/bmayo_23/status/1648441825827639298 She had left the door open to come back, but that's now firmly closed. Good for her, definitely a step up. I think Sydd to Pitt but I'm kind of at a loss as to where the others go. I don't see others makin...

Re: Coach Tory Verdi

First, I would say thank you to Tory for his time at UMass. He put WBB back on the map and gave us a great run the last three years. I have been season tickets for about 15 years and the passion and excitement from fans that he brought to the program was lovely. My personal feelings about it is that...

Trust my source 100% on this that Taylor would leave. Will elaborate when we know either way.

I would assume Taylor follows and probably the DE player of the year commit.

Re: Coach Tory Verdi

Please note, his first five seasons at Umass his in conference record was 32 wins and 44 losses and had to be on a short list to be fired and our school stood by him. If you look at previous season threads, a lot of people were calling for his job after every loss. I hope he stays but can't blame h...

Re: Sam Breen

If the last couple of games in the 21 - 22 season did not get cancelled then Haley Lidel would have broken Sue Peters scoring record and then Sam Breen would have broken Haley's record. Lets not forget what she did for our program. Agree fully with Hailey -- IIRC we were waiting to see if we would ...
