We are giving up wide open layups. No exaggeration.

ESPN isn't going to show many women's highlights tonight/tomorrow. They will all be from this game if DePaul hits 100.
see previous comment. not if, but when.
on the bright side at least KB is staying put? too soon?

Defense has been simply insufficient. *Shrug*

that is deceivingly low because when they do miss on the first shot they are getting second attempts 100% of the time.
We're SECOND in the nation in rebounding and even that has been abyssmal

Wow. We are the 7th best FG defense in the country. Our conference must have some lousy shooters. We'll regroup in the 2nd half, but I think today's outcome has already been determined.

Perhaps the first time on this board that a team's performance hasn't been exaggerated.
This sucks. I hate the one and done. What would JMU have to do to get to higher than an 8 seed next year? Go undefeated?

ESPN announcers cracking jokes during the halftime show:
"We're at the half and I think DePaul just scored 12 more points"

I have it on mute because I just can't take the wise crack commentary anymore.

RE: #11 Lady Dukes vs #6 Depaul Friday @Noon
This is just embarrassing. I thought they had a little run in them but I was obviously mistaken. They aren't hitting shots and they aren't closing out when DePaul has wide open looks. Not a recipe for success. Great season though! Next year should be fun!

I love Kenny Brooks but the one negative about his tenure has been we only have 1 NCAA Tournament win in his time as coach. We think that the committee underseeded us every year and then we go out and prove them right each time.

Two years ago we "upset" fellow mid major Gonzaga as an #11 seed. Obviously getting blow out this year sucks but last year the ladies lost by 10 points to a number 5. It would be nice to see how we would fair in an 8/9 matchup but shy of going undefeated, I don't we will ever see a single digit seed.
Many people believed Depaul was also underseeded this year. Hopefully they keep winning.

The girls look so amateur compared to depaul. falling for pump fakes every time they just go flying past the shot.
terribly embarrassing.

Just awful to watch...
Switching over to watch VCU-Oregon State game or former Duke, Charles Cooke, in the Dayton-Syracuse match-up instead.

Humiliating.
Three straight trips to the NCAAT is to be celebrated, but how is it that kind of experience didn't prepare this team to play better? Surely the team shouldn't have been tight.
Today's poor post play, poor outside shooting, poor rebounding, poor match-up defense at the 3 pt. line, and inability to finish layups = an ugly, ugly loss.
For any JMU fan worried about KB moving on, I think today's effort negates any need for concern. Lots of work to do if the program is to take the next step. The sooner the new Convo and a change concerning the COA decision is made the sooner KB can begin to recruit the next level of athlete the program needs to progress.

Honest question: do you think we all got so wrapped up in how this team ran through the CAA, that we didn't take a realistic look at how good this year's team actually was? We didn't shoot the ball particularly well all year, and it nearly cost us a few games during CAA play. In hindsight, it appears that we ran through a "meh" CAA and ran into a very good Big East regular season champion that was probably under-seeded.
