Didn't Cohen set a state record in high school in the high jump or something like that.

She really hasn't played well when given chances. I'm sure she is frustrated, big change from high school ball.


I agree that she has not played well. But Richards has not shown me much lately, either, yet continues to get playing time. She can't really shoot very well.


I think Richards gets more playing time because of her defense and rebounding. Also a good passer.

Cohen had a great game, liked it when Morris went in early, helped on offense and especially on defense, Nat was excellent, Wally helped once she settled down. Mulkey mentioned the seniors and their positive role, she was not satisfied with the game Brown and Cox had. The team was sleep walking at the start of the game, but they put together a nice win.

Would love to hear Coale's post game presser. It is so obvious that she despises Kim.

Here ya go. Not much talk about Baylor. You can definitely hear that practice for her seniors won't be fun this week.

She did not want to talk about Baylor what so ever. She deflected them trying to poach her to talk more about BU or even situations.

Where have you been? She never gives Mulk or us any credit. Sherri is new Sharpe of OU and the times have passed her.

Missed the first half. Tuned in just in time to see the Lady Bears put on a clinic in the second half. We just beat the **** out of them in every phase of the game. I especially loved the way we beat them down the floor for some easy baskets that just sucked the life out of them. And there's no other Big 12 coach who I enjoy watching get beat by the Lady Bears than Sherrie Coales. There were no buttons she could push, no complaining to the refs that would have made any difference. She had to sit there helplessly and eat what we were serving.

I think the difference is Didi has made herself valuable with rebounding and defense. I have been surprise at her lack of a decent jumpshot, but if she can add that in the offseason, she can be great player for us.

I still look for great things from Moon, but coming in, many observed that she was less polished than the others in the class, even though her athleticism is undeniable. Much like Cox and Juicy, I think when she steps on the floor as a sophomore, we will see major strides.

Baylor has a 15-1 record. Among the 15 victories, the 22 point margin of victory in Norman was the smallest. Just dominant.
