    For almost anyone, an 18-footer is a really bad shot. She knocks those down like they are nothing. I am super super high on her potential, and I'm obviously not alone on that. I know I'm preaching to the choir here.

    She's been consistently extremely good but has somehow managed to not have a standout week where another freshman didn't have gaudier stats. It was only a matter of time before she got one.

    Plus there's the risk of trying and failing to get the steal and ending up behind the person you are defending. It's like our transition defense, where we likely give up a few offensive rebounds by going back so quickly but give up fewer transition baskets as a result.

    We tend to be a "force bad shots" defense rather than a "force turnovers" defense. Some players are particularly good at anticipating passes or poking the ball away and will get more steals because of that, but our defense isn't really designed to get steals.

    For those unfamiliar, Tim Floyd Standings assume you win all home games and lose all road games, so you lose a point for home loses and gain a point for road wins. It obviously doesn't take past and future strength of schedule into account, but it's still a quick and easy way to at least take...

    Thanks to @JimDogRock for the graph and insightful commentary going back to 2003. For those interested, here's the FT data going back to the beginning.

    Wasn't me, although it sounds like something I might do. Mo was a very solid high Div-I post for us. There's zero chance Nova SE would be able to recruit over her. They were extremely fortunate to get her (although maybe not so much if she never ends up playing).
