Because it's incorrect? If you pay attention to them then you don't call them that, it's more respectful of the team.

As long as we don't draw Iowa and aren't a 16 seed, I'll be happy. We need the focus to be on us and not Caitlin Clark. The women deserve their moment in the sun.

I didn't quite know what to think about the mindfulness activities they've been doing the whole year. There's something to be said for composure in a game with stakes that high. I'll take a team that knows how to manage emotions every day.

Pretty neat he's made it to the final 5 for consideration.

Yeah I think PT is 5 years, but I have no idea if the 5th year is more intense, requires more focus, etc. That could be a factor as well.

I mean, team identity isn't about political correctness, it's about respecting the team you support imo.

Roy, the problem here is not that 05 is offended, it's that the team is quite literally no longer called the Lady Billikens. It would be like calling the Anaheim Ducks the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim or the Rays the Devil Rays. This team goes by SLU Women's Basketball as the men go by SLU Men's Basketball.

I'll take an essentially 28% to make the final. This feels like a team who'll get to the semis and everything is up in the air from there.

Yeah the way things turned around mid-season after a disappointing end to the Stone era really should have cemented it. Hindsight, bringing the team to the NCAA for the first time (I don't know if it's like the NHL where it's reg season only) should have made her a lock.

This is mind-boggling.

I know Julia has eligibility, but has she indicated she's coming back? Her appearance at the senior night post-game ceremony made me think otherwise.

Depending on who we draw, hopefully she can add 3 or 4 more to climb that list. I think she is probably the greatest defensive player in SLU WBB history.

No worries. I'm hoping it's not against Iowa so we have an outside shot.

Huh? It has us in Iowa City playing Iowa.

Yeah, it's weird. I think I want her drawing fouls when the game is on the line, though.

I'd believe it

Julia Martinez went Tramaine Isabell on this tournament, she couldn't be contained.

I was there and I, also, am without words.

I'd take a rematch against UMass. I think we can beat them on neutral court.

They're playing to their full potential. They just need to capitalize on the momentum today. UMass has had their way with the conference most of the season; let's get in their way.

Gameday. Let's go get that trophy.

Internal strife doesn't just extend to the basketball program.

I'm gonna say nah to one and eh to the other.

Absolutely more physical than the St. Joe's game. The officiating was weird for sure.

I thought we were DOA after that.
