The two discuss the perpetually increasing dominance of Baylor’s Kalani Brown, along with how her evolving skills dovetail with the growth of Lauren Cox alongside her, both scoring the ball and facilitating one another with the high-low passing game. Joyner Holmes and the state of her return to last season’s effectiveness also comes up, while whether Baylor should be getting more respect among the bracketologists is also addressed.
Then Lobo delves into whether she sees Connecticut or Mississippi State as the true number one team in the country right now. Plus, a dissection of precisely how ESPN managed to get Rebecca Lobo into a box during the Maryland-Ohio State game. SPOILER ALERT: she is not in an actual box.
Enjoy this episode, with plenty of efficiency stats, behind-the-scenes looks at how ESPN incorporates footage of Beth Mowins and Debbie Antonelli dribbling while holding coffee cups, and much more.
