I guess USF is staying, regardless if Memphis goes or stays. Was, false news then.

I'm seeing a lot of stuff having USF staying put. Nothing solid from like ESPN but lots of chatter.

If ACC is now pursuing Memphis (again just rumors) Memphis is 100% taking that offer..

ACC would be smart to add USF and Memphis now to be honest.

If for no other reason than bolster their ranks in case FSU ad Clemson thing goes south.

Plot thickens boys.

If ACC is actually making a push for Memphis (geographically makes sense) Memphis 100% would take that over anything PAC could offer.

Good, analysis. I, also think Aaliyah Alexander was a good pick-up for us. As, she is more athletic and can drive to the basket than
Alyssia Durazo-Frescas was. Is Lott, 100 percent healthy? I, think she would be close to it.
Meadow Roland, is a RS Freshmen. As, she will have to learn the system and have some growing pains, as most freshmen do.
She, is the most intrigued Lady Rebel, I am looking foward to play.

Our, size in the frontcourt will be kinda small 6'2", 6'1" and 6'1". Hopefully, 6'3" Erica Collins can contibute more to the depth of the team.
She, needs this JR year to be the best year of her career.

Kenadee was cleared for contact towards the end of summer so, in theory, she should be 100%. Don't know about Jasmyn's status at this point but remember she was, what, 2.5-3 months behind Kenadee on the injury? Also, don't know how the damage in each player's knee compared. Both were said to be ACL but that doesn't mean that was the only thing in each so we'll see.

I hope Erica can get more time as well. I think the challenge is that she's a different kind of big for the offense that is run. I think it's definitely possible that this could be the best year yet for her.

Meadow was here all last season so she knows how things are done and I look forward to see her shine in this system.

I hope this team makes it so conference games need to be moved to T&M to accommodate the crowd size. Been waiting for that for a minute but this is as close as it's been ever.

I guess I just have to trust Lindy in this. I'm not sure how our forwards will do. I wish we had more height up front. I hope we get Kennedy Winfrey back. She is good on defense and can shoot well from the outside. I hope we see the new lady's early ie. Teagan and Elli. Overall, I'm not sure I got a feel how we will look without Young so I'm more anxious than nervous. I'm looking forward to getting this thing going.

With, Kenadee Winfrey only playing 2 games last year. And, after getting surgery. She, will be a redshirt JR, in the 2024/25 season.
I, assume she should be ready to go and healthy. I, hope she has her best year, so far as a Rebel. Her, experience can help us.
I, can see Teagan Colvin, backing-up Kiara and Amarachi at PG. Whenever, they need a spell.

Also, saw we have 4 Non-con games at the Thomas & Mack this year. NAU, Oklahoma, UCF and E. Carolina.
Probably, will get an additional 2 to 3 conference games at the T&M to.

I saw Meadow play during Desert Reign this summer as well as newcomer Aaliyah Alexander (EWU xfer), Kiara, Macy Spencer, Macie James, McKinna, Amarachi & AB. Also former Lady Rebs Sequoia Holmes, Jordyn Bell, Essence Booker and Ashley Scoggin. It's basically four pick-up games with no more than 2 current Lady Rebels on a team and then other players from around town. Some were former college and others were former HS players. Given the format it's tough to tell since nobody really knows each other too well and there's no real structure to take advantage of skill sets.

Meadow showed no issues with the shoulder. I thought she played OK. She didn't dominate but was pretty good. Aaliyah seemed like a very nice add, scoring from many different places on the floor. Key and AB played as one might expect as did Rachi & James. I thought Spencer had some real bright spots shooting and McKinna is going to be fun to watch. AB, McKinna and Meadow will be a tough group to deal with.

The non-conference schedule definitely is a gauntlet but will be a better prep for conference and, hopefully, NCAA tournament. I'm hoping Jasmyn Lott can come back. I think she would have helped a lot against Creighton. Regardless, I'm looking forward to it.

I noticed that 3-0 James Madison is up 53-21 over 3-0 North Carolina at the half - That is a lot of offense.

In my six degrees of separation post, James Madison is up 53-21 over North Carolina at the half; North Carolina beat 2-1 Minnesota 19-17; Minnesota beat unr 27-0.

So how many points would James Madison be up at the half over unr?

Toledo and NIU will be two other G5 teams to keep an eye on. They play this year so will basically eliminate one of them. Both have big P4 road wins. NIU over Notre Dame. Toledo absolutely curb stomped Miss State on the road.

I think a 1 loss UNLV or Boise or Fresno would get the nod over them.

No because they all play terrible schedules. That's where it hurts them. The CFP rankings are going to kill teams NIU, Liberty, Memphis, James Madison etc due to scheduling and weak conferences.

Dude that's what I've been saying about it not being great if UNLV gets boxed out of the PAC12. We end up in a weaker conference (MWC 2.0, CUSA) UNLV would have to really schedule up in OOC to compensate.

Tough to say. They beat Gardner Webb by a whopping score of 13-6, so who knows.

I, think Meadow Roland has big shoes to fill. It, will not be easy to fill the role of, 1 of the 25 greatest women players in MW history.
Also, I hope Meadow's shoulder, is completely healed and doesn't effect her motion, in anyway. We, need her in an important role.
In, 5 year's of Lindy's coaching. This, non-conference schedule is the best at UNLV.
Games, against Arizona, Oklahoma, Baylor, UCF, DePaul and Northwestern. Are, exciting and competition will be tough for our PG Kiara Jackson.

What, are your thoughts on the Lady Rebel season?

Article covers Utah State but brings out much more than just them. Some interesting things mentioned in this article like UNLV and AF staying in the MWC with unequal revenue sharing as an enticement. Also, mentions some possible targets of acquisition for the MWC.

Utah State is reportedly a target for Pac-12 expansion

Utah State has been viewed as a long shot when it comes to membership in the latest version of the Pac-12 Conference, but the Aggies are reportedly not out of the running yet.

I swear to God if Utah State got in over us.

Some rumbling on twitterverse (no actual reports) Memphis negotiations may have hit snag.
