This article is from January, but it mentions AA and OSU: "Oregon State signee Andrea Aquino was eligible to play after sitting out 30 days due to transfer rules. Aquino is 6 feet 9 inches, making her the tallest female high school player in the nation." I actually wonder if there is any taller player in the collegiate ranks at this point either. Go Beavers!

Assuming she comes to campus early summer like most freshmen have when can the s&c coach start working with them? She and PM can both benefit from some bulking up.

When I was a freshman at OSU, I took a weightlifting class. At the start of the class I weighed 135 pounds and could bench press 130 pounds. We were supposed to show improvement by the end of the term. At the end of the term, I weighed 135 pounds and could bench press 130 pounds. So S&C doesn't always do any good. I dare say I had more testosterone in my system than these ladies, so don't get your hopes up.

You should be ashamed of yourselves! As far as you know, I could be in tears right now due to your insensitivity!

Everyone assumes that if you tell a personal story about how basically weak you are, you are OK with a little ribbing about it.

That would also help explain his weak predictions re: $uck$ women's hoops. Hmmm, I really shouldn't have to explain my logic again. The "ducks" didn't lose: The "ducks MINUS Bando" lost. It's simple logic, and I should know since I got a B in Algebra I: Ducks - Bando < Ducks, assuming "Bando" is a positive quantity. And the Patriots didn't lose the Superbowl, either. The "Patriots - Cooks" lost. It's simple math: Patriots - Cooks < Patriots, by the same reasoning. Am I the only one in the world with such astoundingly good reasoning skills?

B- To be honest, I was predicting the Yucks would run the table based on their talent, but they have underperformed. With players like Hebard, Sabally, Maguire, Ionescu, Cazorla, and Bando, I figured they would dominate. I don't LIKE the Yucks, but I figured I'd have to live with their dominance. Losing Bando hurt them, and that may have been the difference in their 2 losses (to OSU and Stanford). Let me reiterate: I want nothing but disgrace and humiliation for the ugly birds down south. Next year, with Slocum and Jazz and a couple bigs, along with all our current outside shooting and experience, I truly expect that WE could run the table in the Pac-12, depending mostly on how fast our bigs can emulate Marie Gulich (which is a tall order, but there ARE 2 of them).

NOBODY in the Pac-12 will be having undefeated conference seasons and that was the major fallacy of your prediction to begin with. Not this year, not next year, not the year after .... it just won't happen. Now THAT is an outrageous prediction! You are asserting with absolute certainty that the Pac-12 will NEVER have a team in the same class as UCONN. Yup, that's a huge stretch.

Too much balance in this conference. Not so much in UConn's. Stanford, Oregon, and UCLA are the big players at this time. Next year, UCLA will have been decimated by graduation, so their younger players, even if talented, won't be nearly as good early. Stanford is 19-8 and Oregon is 23-4: Hardly world-class and definitely consistently beatable by a team the caliber of UCONN. The other teams are definitely beatable, so your claim resolves to an assertion that OSU can't beat UO and Stanford twice each and handle the lesser teams, too, next year, or the year after, or the year after. THAT is a stretch.

THAT is a stretch. No. Your logic is simply ignorant. Much like your run the table predictions. Ad hominem! Ad hominem! Where is the justice here? Oh, the humanity! Oh, wait. You said thickhead's logic, not thickhead himself, is ignorant, in defiance his own self-deprication. That would not qualify as Ad Hominem, especially since my logic is not a person. Sneaky wording on your part to be in strict compliance with board guidelines!
