All the Hype of Women's NCAA Basketball grabbed me this year & I bought Tickets...

...how disappointed I was! These players can shoot a three successfully about 37% of the time, can shoot Foul Shots @ a 78% pace...AND shoot lay-ups at a successful rate of 14%!!!

  • The last time I saw players miss so many lay-ups or "put backs" was when I was coaching Jason's 6th grade Team!
I thought I was watching the "creme-de-la-creme" of Women's Basketball tonight when I watched Notre Dame U. take on Maya Moore U., er U Conn! U Conn...the #1 TEAM in the Country & every player (other than Maya) was afraid to take a shot!
  • The best High School Boys Team in Phila would beat either of these NCAA semi-final Teams by at least 30 points!!!
So....what do you think of That Analysis....Ms Patty Dornisch Beck!  Former NCAA Women's College Player?

I'm afraid I have to agree...while I can appreciate the effort, I think the "product" is poor...rarely do I see really great players...it's disappointing.

These new women can't compete with the 1995 Uconn team led by my hero (at the time) Rebecca Lobo!!!

So...what does Patty Dornisch Beck, who I believe played in the 80's have to say?

Let's face the facts, the reason you won't hear from Ms.Beck is that she too agrees, yes, she had game, but too often the other nine on the court had "no game".

Excuse me Pea but the irrepressible Patty D was a junior in 1991 and a senior in 1992. Four year letter winner and scored 8 points in her first game as a Frosh. Boy could she shoot. Some have said it was in the genetics.

Humble Gay...I was with 2 BM's tonite & they both asked me why do I think Patty D has not responded to the Question...I could only say, "she is the Mother of 4 & is very Bizzy"
