Guess Cleo must be spending more time at BJ tables in Vegas than getting her team ready...

Also Shaq's daughter never saw the floor.

I don't think she was a highly regarded recruit. Her younger sister (Me'Arah) on the other hand already has a bunch of programs scouting. She is super tall and can already almost dunk, and she's like 13 or 14


I just googled, she is 6'4

In the name of fairness, the casinos are probably closed since Nevada is on lockdown.

And Shaq's daughter really wasn't expected to be much of a contributor. She wasn't a highly ranked prospect.

That having been said...

Same shitty stale offense. Same shitty 3-point shooting. Same shitty 3-point defense. And a bunch of very average players that no power programs wanted.

Did you watch the stream? I didn't want to pay 10 dollars, I didn't understand why they were shooting so many 3's.


3-18 from 3

I watched. BYU is known as a good defensive team. They only allowed like 53 a game last year. They have some huge girls...6'5 and 6'7. They got the 6'7 girl in foul trouble the whole game but still struggled on the inside

The going was rough on the interior. Trasi made some nice moves early. Aifuwa missed an arse-load of shots closer than 4 feet.

BYU packed in their zone and dared LSU to shoot 3's....and 3-18 ensued. And they were just about all wide open looks.

BYU has good shooters. LSU does not. End of story.

I appreciate it


Its disappointing. I will always support the athletes, its not their fault if they aren't good enough but this is 100% on the coaches.

We are in year 10 and nothing has changed. Frustrating as a fan. All Nikki thinks about is defense and she hasn't recruited a shooter worth a damn in years. Nothing is going to change.

I was kinda expecting more from T. Young but she doesn't seem to have much confidence in her shot. This team simply does not have very much talent outside a few kids but those kids all don't show up every night.

So time to stop paying NV all that money. She should be the next coach at LSU to go.

Not sure but doesn't fargus make like 800,000 a year? In 10 years comes out, I think, to a cool 8mil. Maybe another 10 years she may win a regional or get to the top 8.

Rabs is worse than Guilbeau at writing articles. Cleo is a terrible coach, but that headline shouldn’t been released. Best team?!?
