Yeah, I think she brought in something like 8 new players. 4 or 5 commits she had at Drury followed her to LU. Drury always has great women’s basketball so if she has 4-5 of them, they will probably be better sooner than later. Might not be this year, but I expect them to be a thorn in our side going forward. Lindenwood is doing a lot right in their programs. I went to their football game last week, big crowd, lot of tailgating. They had a section for the tailgate with all their athletes. They are generating a lot of buzz.

I can see them becoming a Belmont like school one day. I’m just hoping we can become a Murray State like school and rival them.

Fun night and a pretty decent crowd, too.

My expectations for this season is to at the very least make the 8 team conference championship. My hope is to finish top 4 and get a first round bye. I think we brought in more than we lost so I think we should win more conference games this season. Having 2 point guards that look to be very good should ensure us of better finishing of games…..which we gave away multiple games last season by turnovers in the closing minutes. Imo, we have the horses this year to be top 4 if we play to our potential. I don’t see any way we should be outside the top 8 with who we have. Ready for the game Monday to see all the new ladies play.

Game day is finally here. I will be there tonight but I’m afraid the crowd will be smaller than usual because the USI men play at the same time and many will stay home to watch it on livestream. Also,UE men are playing their home opener tonight and those that go to both schools will likely choose the UE men’s game. I am anxious to watch our ladies play because I believe this year will be an improvement over last season. I think we have a great chance to be 1-0 if we play to our potential tonight. Go USI.

Pretty sparce crowd. USI women are up 34 - 27 going into 3Q. Trying to watch one game live and then the men's game on my phone is a bit difficult.

Pretty sparce crowd. USI women are up 34 - 27 going into 3Q. Trying to watch one game live and then the men's game on my phone is a bit difficult. I was there and was surprised how many were there actually. The men were playing so lots stayed home to watch that game and UE men played at home so those that go to both probably went to that game. And women’s games without the men playing after are usually small crowds. We have some talent, but folded at the end to let them back in the game. We had a 15 point lead at one point. The officials were really sad tonight….both ways,but worse against us.
