Yes. It would also mean a bye in the conference tournament (only 1 & 2 get byes and GW gets the 2 seed with a win) as well as a guaranteed bid in the NIT.

DeSmetBilliken Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Starting OT now. Apparently Stipanovich banked in a trey late to tie it. UD leads 61-56 with 3:30 to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SluSignGuy Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Did not know the women's game had the "advance" rule with the time out. SLU ball, 65-50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeSmetBilliken Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Based on what was said on the telecast, apparently UD couldn't buy a bucket in the 4th quarter. SLU somewhat returned the favor in OT. UD won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pistol Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 So maybe not on the advance rule, but I think they will be experimenting with quarters in certain tournaments next season. Too tired to look anything up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too tired to look anything up. I read in this year's NIT after 4 team fouls the fouled team shoots 2 FTs on the next foul, no one and ones, and they'll reset team fouls at the 10-minute mark of each half. Seems dumb. http://deadspin.com/ncaa-to-experiment-with-playing-quarter-rules-while-sti-1792311454 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willie Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 I think the advance rule is stupid. I imagine coach Stone agrees after losing in the NIT because of it. Why should you get an offensive advantage because you called timeout? Yes I know the NBA does it,but the NBA does a lot of stupid things.

Cowboy Posted February 23, 2017 Author Share Posted February 23, 2017 -I saw a clip on the news of our last shot attempt in regulation, seemed like it was all Jackie, hey kid go do your thing, no thought of a screen and perhaps not enough time for a pass, defense was right with her -I'll try to be there on Sunday to cheer the Ladies past round 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams all clog the middle on her now to cut off her drives. I was surprised they didn't have a play keyed off her driving and drawing defenders.

hsmith19 Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Pretty amazing that Kemph has won a second CPOY as a junior, especially considering she was having an off season by her standards until recently. Hard to imagine her not winning a third one next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If SLU fails to win the A10 tourney and misses the NCAA again, does it become a problem that Stone has had the A10 POY two years in a row but has been unable to capitalize on that? I understand where that program has come from and I think she has done a really nice job here. But two straight years of terribly soft scheduling has been quite the error for her. Of course winning the A10 tournament would put an end to that line of discussion, although the scheduling really should be much stronger than 254 SOS.

hsmith19 Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 There has been a pretty big dropoff in recruiting classes the last couple years, but they should still be pretty good next year with Kemph/McMahan/Vliet/Franz/Gits. As far as scheduling goes, I can understand it's tough to get home games considering SLU's tack record as a program. But it should be easy enough to play more road games against better opponents if that's what it takes not to have such a dismal SOS. There were six non-con road games this year, but most of them were against mediocre local-ish schools. On the other hand, they also lost a couple of those road games, so maybe scheduling more and tougher ones wouldn't have worked out so hot.
