Agreed.DCZards wrote:closg00 wrote:Do you guys have think Bruno is one-and-done?
Bruno is a sophomore. So it would be two-and-done. And, yes, I expect him to enter the NBA draft. He initially entered the draft after last season but then decided against it. He's projected to be a top 15-20 pick so I think he'll come out this year.

Personally, I'm not even mad.
This was always going to be a transition year.
This team had some weaknesses.
Lack of depth in the frontcourt And a big time pg.
Won't have any of those issues next season.
Could be our most talented team since the championship team.
Basically, just chill out and you'll see.
PS: Google these four names and you'll get it.
Ashley Owusu, Zoe Young, Diamond Miller & Faith Masonius.
Yeah......

As for the men, I'm hearing Jalen Smith is gone and that his parents wanted him to go pro out of HS, if that was possible (and they do have some $$$). He's good but he's not that good. His performance in the tournament may have gotten him into the first round.

From what I read, it sounds like they just ran into a very good UCLA team that was more talented than MD.

According to the article I read, offensive rebounding is what got UCLA to where they were - all season long - 3rd in the entire nation in offensive rebounding. They're supposedly a long and athletic team that doesn't shoot well, so they get lots O rebounds. Doesn't sound like it's any shame to lose by 5 to them.
The men's team - they're pretty much dead for next season, imo.

I've been watching Maryland women lose to teams like Louisville and UConn for years.I've seen players like Lexie Brown come and go.
Brenda Frese is from Iowa and she's never going to be wrong in some people's eyes. Blonde hair? If she were black she'd be scrutinized a bunch IMO.
Rebounding is about effort but also it is about substituting and fresh bodies. Just like she did with another white girl before her Taylor Mikesell was Brenda favorite player minutes wise and shot selection. Green light all the way. White might just be a coincidence but this player plays a lot of minutes and took a horrible shot at the end of the game as a freshman.
You guys don't like me anyway in some way so I'm just going to be honest I think Brenda is a half-ass coach who treats people badly but she recruits extremely well
The mothers of a couple former players cannot stand Brenda.Wizardspride wrote:Chocolate City Jordanaire wrote:Truth.80sballboy wrote:That was one of the worst defensive rebounding performances I've seen in all my years of watching basketball.

You might get what you want: Tennessee is interested in Brenda and it's mutual.
Stay tuned....
Mean to players. Never coaches up defensively. Played a short bench despite good depth.Ruzious wrote:I don't follow MD women much - never watched a game, but... Frese did win a National Championship ahd has finished in 1st place in the Big Ten 4 of the last 5 seasons going 18-0, 16-2, 15-1, 12-4 (2nd place), and 15-3, made it to the NCAA final 4 in 2014 and 2015, and she's 457-123 for her MD career. Not perfect - certainly not Pat Summit - but seems like she's done alright.

That championship was 2007. Tolliver, Coleman, Langhorne, and Harper won as freshmen and sophomores but didn't get better over their college career.
