This was the worst game I've ever seen by the Ladydawgs. I want to support Coach Abe, but this doesn't make her look good at all. She has some players that she might ask to move on and try to seek some players who are not looking for NIL but playing time. 16 points in the first half and just 10 in the second. Totally embarrassing on the SEC National game. There is going to be some rumblings by some of the bigger Boosters. You have some players scoring individually 26 points a game. Texas plays good defense but they are not that good. I am telling you, Texas might not make the final four let alone win the National Championship. You have five Freshmen coming in, but you will still need a leader. Tonight makes me ready to see the season come to an end.

I saw later tonight on ESPN that the points tied the record for the lowest in UGA history. This had to be in the seventies before Landers because I would have remembered something like this if Landers was coaching. You can't make excuses for tonight. Coach Abe is going to have to figure out somehow to get a leader from somewhere with experience. She can't afford another season like these last two years. I know that she was left with a bad situation, but she has to show growth next year. Nobody wants to hear excuses next year. Next year's freshmen will be freshmen. Coach Abe needs to go to Josh Brooks for NIL help to get one good forward that can score next year are she might be looking for a job. We have some players that just aren't talented enough for the SEC. She is getting some talent, but the question is how much longer will need to right the ship.

Our best scorer barely played last night due to the flu. The other girls could not ring the basket. The very tall girls on the Texas team intimidated our players causing them take circus shots which leads to mostly missed shots. I was very proud that we were only behind four points at half time. I hope some of the girls coming in next year are very tall. It's hard to be patient. But its necessary in our situation.

I watched most of the first half on demand. Once they got past playing the number one team, they competed.

Not watching the ugly second half.

We need to give Coach ABE two more years. With the talent we have coming in and the talent we are recruiting, we will do better. Changing coaches before that will set us back once again.

The low score doesn't bother me as much considering we were trying to take the air out of the ball and score at the end of the shot clock. It worked in the first half. Our point total matched a game against Auburn in 2015.

Our team struggled with pressure against one of the best defensive teams in the country, but hopefully, this prepares us for Auburn who is also going to pressure us hard, but doesn't have quite the size and length.

I agree with you guys, I don't want to see Coach Abe not getting a couple more years. She has got to find another scorer next season to turn this thing around. Now Jocelyn can play offense, Meghan Yarnevich will definitely get a lot of playing time because she stretch the defense with her jump shot. She won't be as polished on defense as Zhen Craft. But I definitely see Zhen playing a lot because she can defend without fouling and she knows how to get to the rim. I like Aubrey Beckham game because she is going to give us our biggest point guard since Teresa Edwards at 5'11". She will be great with Trinity and Harissoum Coulibaly plus the twins. Coach Abe will have to figure out how to mix them together. Now Jocelyn can play three positions that will help us. I am hoping that she and Harissoum will score for us which could help us become a winning program again. One person that we need to play is Savannah, her three point shot at 6'3" could open up the floor. We have talent, we need to win more games and get to the NCAAs.
