I would literally rather eat a Coronavirus popsicle than to have NCAA tournament games played without fans.

Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero-- Seize the day, trust as little as possible in tomorrow.
- When my team isn’t shooting well, my dad always says “they just need to see some shots go in.” So I bought a pop-a-shot for our shooting stations at practice today. Can’t hurt right? 🤷🏽♂️
00:00 - When you’re busy watching recruits but have to take time to fist bump the back to back NBA Finals MVP.
00:00 - I’m all for sportsmanship, but can we please let female athletes have the same passion/intensity that we allow from male players. @MizzouWBB plays with a chip on their shoulder. That’s probably part of the reason they have been so successful despite many doubters.Please do not disrespect "The Summitt." Thank you.
00:00 - When you go watch a recruit play and they pick up 2 fouls in the first 4 minutes and their coach sits them all half.
- We do March Madness a little differently around our house. Coaches let me know about this 2032 recruit!
00:00 - Some say Serena making this a women’s rights issue a stretch- but not me. I had a player get a T in an intense game for saying “And 1”. When we penalize women for being fiercely competitive, we’re telling them that they are softer than their male counterparts. And that’s wrong.
- Dang I must have missed Geno’s call. I mean we held Caitlin Clark to 13 points back in 2020. 😂😂 Granted, she had a triple double and beat us by like 30. But just saying.From today's Geno Auriemma transcript. Q. How do you plan on stopping Caitlin Clark? "We don't. We don't plan on stopping her. Because I tried calling all the other coaches that have stopped her, and none of them answer the phone. So we're going to have to find a different way
- Me to the refs after I get warned for “yelling at them across the court.”
- I hear a lot of people talk about how big of an advantage the SD teams have playing our tournament in Sioux Falls. While that might be true, I’m pretty sure this year @SDCoyotesWBB and @GoJacksWBB would meet in the finals even if I hosted the tourney in my driveway. #TheyGood
- Unpopular opinion (amongst DI basketball coaches): We need the 1 time transfer rule. Players should be able to transfer once without having to sit. It’s so hypocritical that we as coaches can switch jobs with no repercussions, but we make young people sit out an entire season.
- New rule proposal- the winners of the DII National Championship for men’s and women’s basketball get a spot in the NCAA DI tourney. Let them play the 12 seeds in a play in game. A lot of people would be surprised how well they compete.
- Them: “Why does SDSU get to host every WNIT game??” Me: 👇🏽Let’s go @GoJacksWBB!!! This is what the support looks like for women’s athletics at SDSU! #GoJacks 🐰
