I think Iowas State and WVU have the toughest match ups. KState is playing well can take FSU and Tech is in a good position to beat FGC ksu is playing well? They are on a 4 match losing streak. oops…I meant to say “When” K State is ….

Don't underestimate how tough Kansas State's schedule was in the 2nd half of the conference season.

Nice seasons for Iowa State, KState, Tech and WVU.

Considering Coach Elliot recently plucked some 2023 elite recruits out of SEC country (Missouri - 1; Kentucky - 2; Florida - 1), I think Texas will just be fine playing in the SEC. I think you’re missing the point. I’m not saying he’s going to stop recruiting well, he certainly will. I’m saying Florida and Kentucky are far better recruiters than any other Big 12 program. And they get girls from Texas that are better than what other Big 12 recruiters are getting. There’s just such a massive talent gap between Texas every time they step on the court against a Big 12 opponent (Baylor excluded, but they are like half transfers I believe). I’m not saying he’s going to fail, but I think it’s fair to say the coaching approach can be different when you’re training girls to play to their established demonstrated potential as opposed to figuring out how to beat a team like Kentucky who’s arguably more athletic. I guess Elliott won't need to spend all his waking moments this week on figuring out how to beat Kentucky.

Ugh.
