slot canyon 1,333 Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 I watched roughly the first half of our game vs Ol' Miss last night. AU ended up losing by 32 points, 79 - 47. They were down by 16 at half. Did not make a 3 point shot the entire game. Overall made 25% of shots from field and 61% of free throws. Out rebounded 53 - 37. I did not know we were picked to finish next to last in the conference in the coaches poll. Ole Miss was picked middle of the pack. We were 2 - 14 in conference play last year. Not sure what success would look like for this team but winning 4 conference games would be big improvement. I have tried to be a fan of AU WBB but it has its challenges. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUGoo 2,662 Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 Sounds like our Men’s shooting percentages. Do they practice together or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey 16,578 Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Lost again today but at least the team was competitive. Another of those players Coach Flo ran off played a lot today. Lauren Hanson didn't score much but she's been averaging 19 points a game recently and plays a solid floor game. Coach Flo put together her best recruiting class, then ran several of them off because they "didn't fit her system". A good coach designs the system to fit the players,not the opposite. Another one she ran off went to Kentucky hurt us last year. I believe a third left AU for Florida State. Oh well, Flo is gone now. Extending Flo's contract was Greene's second biggest mistake, right behind hiring Harsin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuburnNTexas 7,140 Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 (edited) In both games our starting PG was out. In the second game we lost coach moved our starting SG to PG and it helped but still to many turnovers.. In todays game the PG is key to a teams success. Even with starting PG we would have lost first game but it would have been closer with starting PG in second game we probably could have won as she makes everybody around her better.

Mikey 16,578 Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Coach Harris must have read this board and decided something had to change or it would be changed for her. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe some of it is due to a couple of key players getting healthy. I noticed Levy was not with the team last night and apparently injury related. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akillshot 294 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Girls up by 13 on Florida in the 4th with 4:52 left in game. While they are long way from the talent of the top teams in the country, they are improving. While some don't see the improvement with Coach Harris, I do. Defense is pretty good and they play hard. As @slot canyonpointed out, key players were out for several games (Coulibaly and Scott-Grayson in particular). It will take some time to overcome the last several years of ruining the AU Women basketball name in terms of getting top talent . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These last games with the players returned from injury have been better. We still have a long way to go. Coach Flo left a mess but it's now time for this team to step up to being a mid-level SEC team. Maybe we can make it this season, maybe not but next year is a must.

At beginning of SEC season when we got blown out by all those teams we had key players out due to injury. With most key players healthy now we are playing at mid-sec level. Because of early injuries our record won't show that but recent play does. We still need a big talent infusion to both be able to handle injuries and to move up to top of mid-level SEC teams. I do believe we are headed in the right direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUBwins 10,075 Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Oh my goodness. Auburn should have extended the win streak to 4 games today. I only saw the final 90 seconds. Unreal at the momentum swings in that short time. Auburn loses by 3 in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUBwins 10,075 Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Auburn tied at 51 with 40 sec left. Then in back to back to back plays, Aub gets rebound as falling down. She passes the ball before fully falling but called for travel anyways. then ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUBwins 10,075 Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Ark drives lane and they call an Auburn foul (despite perfect defense and all ball, no foul). Ark only makes 1 and Aub calls timeout to advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
