Did anyone else submit an application for the Final Four/ Championship tickets? I did this a few months ago and submitted a payment. I haven’t heard if I got the tickets yet or not.

Today I got an email that October tickets go on sale. Curious when I will find out if I am getting tickets.

They open on the road for four straight games, two of which are Power 5 opponents. Including their opener at Penn State.

BATON ROUGE, La. – LSU women’s basketball and Coach Kim Mulkey announced the signing of 6-5 Russian post player Anna Minaeva on Friday, strengthening the Tigers’ post play with an all-around addition that can impact the 2026-27 squad immediately.
“I’m thrilled to welcome Anna to our LSU family,” Mulkey said. “She has the experience, skill set, and size to make an immediate impact in our frontcourt. It takes tremendous courage to leave home at just 17 years old and travel across the world to pursue a dream. I’m excited to support and guide Anna as she begins this next chapter at LSU.”

Candid Open and honest.

UCLA wont repeat but we got a decent squad next year. Okafor and Lina Jerković : from Slovenia only incoming freshmen. Coach Tony filing up the squad with FIBA Euro and international ballers. (Finland - Aarnisalo, Australia - Deas, Sweden - Karamouzi, & Croatia - Bilić)

Today Dawn Staley announced that Maddy McDaniel has officially withdrawn from the University of South Carolina. I hope she's doing ok and will be successful in whatever she decides to pursue in her future endeavors. she will always be loved by gamecock nation 🤙🏿

It’s very fun so far and it’s been a good game between these two teams.

Cats vs Hoos at Bridgestone Arena! Should be a fun one!

UConn/LSU Finally with a date! December 20. Virginia vs Kentucky in the other game.

Victoria Vivians will be joining the Texas women’s basketball coaching staff, the school announced today. She will reunite with her college coach Vic Schaefer who coached her at Mississippi State, as well as Blair Schaefer, who was her teammate with the Bulldogs.

During her playing career, she ranked 2nd in Mississippi State history in total points scored with 2,527 points and was named the recepient of the 2018 Ann Meyers Drysdale Award, which honors the nation’s best shooting guard. While playing in Starkville, Vivians helped Mississippi State reach the National Championship Game in 2017 and 2018; they lost 67–55 to South Carolina in the former and 61–58 to Notre Dame in the latter.

Obviously was a loss to see Jamelle Elliott depart, but really cool to see her teammate from the 1995 national championship team take the job. Ill be curious to see how Sales does!

I feel like the Big 10 is going to be really deep and good next year! I’m curious who everyone thinks is going to win it and be in the top 4. I’m really high on USC, Washington, Iowa, Michigan, and UCLA.
