Game is Sunday at 4. Rueck vs Graves with a full week to prepare/scheme. Even if the talent were equal I’d favor Rueck’s prep. In this instance it’s not. And I expect a 60% duck, 40% Beaver crowd at the kNight Court so the home court advantage will be largely neutralized. Last time we play in the State of Oregon as co-conference members. Time to send them down the road with an exclamation point. DONT MISS IT. |

I like your estimate on the crowd %s , I got curious, noted their attendance was 6074 for CO, 6965 for UT, 1347 for Cal, 4546 for Stanford, etc. The arena holds 12,364 max FYI. I'm guessing they will come see OSU for the last time in numbers. I want to end this rivalry on a high note badly! |

Your link was taking me back to the thread, but this should work if it’s doing the same for others: www.oregonlive.com/beavers/2024/01/is-sunday-the-last-foreseeable-womens-basketball-game-between-oregon-state-and-oregon.htmlInteresting comments from Donovyn. I wonder how many other Oregonians we’ve recruited have felt the same way. I recall her mom being a huge Oregon fan on twitter, then once OSU started showing legit interest (around her junior HS season) she seemed to be very pro-OSU. I also recall watching her as a rising junior playing for the Cal Stars (I believe she was their third string PG) and thinking “this kid could never play in the Pac-12.” The trajectory of her improvement was quite impressive and I think a lot of schools missed out on her. I certainly won’t complain. |

Kudos to Scott for never giving up on her. www.facebook.com/KDRV12/videos/donovyn-hunter-basketball-prodigy/10157515943873312/ |

Was just going to post this. Really, really interesting stuff for a weekly presser, especially from Rueck on Dono and his defensive philosophy. Really encourage everyone to check it out. |

Agreed, this is one of the better mid-week pressers in recent memory. I thought the reporters asked some really good strategy based questions to get the responses from Rueck. Often, the questions are fluffy and basic that don't lend to getting much useful information. |

Thanks for the link.
Listening to these young ladies reminds me of a quote from several years ago. If I remember correctly it was from Pat Casey. He was asked about his recruiting smart and intelligent players. His response was that it is easier to teach a smart kid something than a dumb one. Rueck has embraced this philosophy in its entirety. Year after year his players get accolades for their ability to learn whether it's in the classroom or the court.
I keep hoping every week that we don't have one of those let down games that seem to plague every program. So far so good. They are as focused as any team I've seen.
Now let's kick the quakers out of those schmucks!!!
