d3bballfollower I am going to have to agree with you when you said:
"I don't think any women basketball player in her right mind would claim that she could compete with a decent male basketball player. They are worlds apart on so many levels." Tell that to Hoopscoopmiac, she said MIAC girls could tear me apart.

NOW to Hoopscoopsmiac....
Here is the deal, I don't care that there are women posters on here who used to hoop. I could take any of them using my left hand only. I have played against many great players who played in the levels of D-3, D-2, D-1, and NBA. I also have played pick-up with WNBA players. Women cant hoop. They just can't. The girl who played in the WNBA had great handels and saw the court well but guess what, she wasnt even close to the best player on the court. I had a teammate who went to UW-Madison and played on the practice squad for the UW Women Badgers. He was not a great player but he told me the coach would allow him and some other scrubs to play 100% when she was angry at her team. When the guys played 100% they mopped the women up.
Top (Proven) reasons girls cant hoop:
1. They take that awkward step when they shoot.
2. Many have to still jump when shooting freethrows.
3. No strength, causing tons of loose balls and jump balls in every game.
4. They reach for rebounds on their tip toes instead of jumping.
5. At the highest level of womens basketball, highlights consist of slow moving lay-ups and once every couple of decades a weak weak semi dunk.
No offense to women because they can do many things better than us guys, BUT basketball will never be one of them. I wouldnt be afraid to go 1 on 1 with any women on earth!!!!!!!!

Quick WHAT?is in order after last night. Even without Lincoln, Carleton loses to SMU??? Bethel's upset of the Cobs makes more sense than the Cards coming out on top (no offense meant SS).

SS51...How does Bens get athletes? They host have 6 age-group Camps each year and in addition there is a Team Camp. The assistants help, there are many of the upperclassman, who work them, Kids get to know the campus get to enjoy it etc. , and they can be identified as a coming prospect. How many Coaches want to put themselves through this? And then in adddition, the tradition, and the coaches still get out to see the prospects they relly want to see come.

I guess I am going to elbow my way in here, since there seems to be no responses to my questions. So, I'm lighting the fire again. Back to the scheduling in the MIAC.
"Have you seen them play?" -- She_scores51
I'm not sure about the question,"Have you seen them play?" Who are you you talking about the MIAC, WIAC, or the Teams with injuries? The thing I am concerned with is the fatigue building as the schedule grinds along.

Secondly, (and someone brought this up(can't find it)) for a Conference who boasts of academics, the present schedule is to the point of being ridiculous. This, especially for those who travel the most. Those who are more than 60 miles from the Metro area spend literally days in a vehicle during a season. Those especially at the extreme ends of the Conference have 11 road trips/year. Those from the Metro area have 4 road trips/year. Now, compound those trips, by stuffing three games in each week.

As an afterthought to the schedule. It would be interesting to check with the athletic trainers across the MIAC to see if this season has produced more fatigue and injuries
this year than prior years for both the men's and women's leagues. If the statistics prove out, it would be a strong point toward more reasonable future schedules.

Some teams — SMU pops to mind quickly — need as much work as they can get fielding a competitive team.

I like Willy Wonka have many sources.
If I am the source, huh? I can only dream of owning business cards that say the following:

One would rather expect a program to create a culture of accountability whereby the player decided to commit to class.
Thoughts?

With no SMU rep on these boards, I'll throw this out there myself. The new Cards coach has very little talent to work with down bout. However, he sent out an email to the entire faculty laying out a bunch of guidelines in class for his student-athletes. The only one I specifically heard mentioned was that his players were required to sit in the first or second row of class, but the list was apparently double-digit in length.
Does any other coach in the MIAC mandate such a thing, especially for all to hear? Is this a good or a bad thing? Anyone care to speculate on what other rules he's invoked?
