00:00What else can you say about Dawn Staley and what is going on with the South Carolina Gamecocks?
00:06Malaysia for Wiley, transfers, no problem.
00:08Number three in the country, winners of three straight games, sitting at 10-1,
00:12including a good 79-77 win over Louisville.
00:16Now, they have a two-point loss to Texas, but that's still a team right now
00:20that I think is firmly a top three or four team nationally.
00:25Why?
00:26The place of Joyce Edwards continues to evolve as a sophomore at 20.3 points per game,
00:305.9 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 2.2 steals, 1.7 blocks.
00:35You're shooting at 59% from the floor.
00:38Now, Dawn Staley went to the transfer portal and got Tenaya Latson.
00:42Remember, Tenaya Latson was the leading scorer in the country at Florida State,
00:45getting you at 17.8 points per game, 3.6 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 52% from the floor.
00:52And then Medina Okat, averaging a double-double at 14.8, 11.1.
00:59Remember, folks, Chloe Kitts is out for the year for South Carolina.
01:05And what can you say about the Johnsons?
01:08Tessa Johnson, 13.3 points per game.
01:12Raven Johnson continues to be the quarterback of that team.
01:16And here's the thing about South Carolina.
01:18They're doing it again, folks.
01:19They're not just beating teams.
01:21They're removing doubt by halftime.
01:24That's not, that's dominance.
01:26It's not hype.
01:27And the crazy thing is, we say it year after year after year by a team coach, by Dawn Staley.
01:36Oklahoma's starting to make its run into the top 10 in women's college basketball.
01:42Ranked number eight in the AP Top 25.
01:44Sitting at 11-1, they got a really good win in-state battle and a 92-70 win over Oklahoma State.
01:54Only loss that they've had so far this year.
01:57It's a 73-59 loss versus UCLA.
02:01And that is nothing, you know, to be ashamed about.
02:05When you look at Oklahoma, you got to look at Aaliyah Chavez, the number one ranked player in the class of 2025, is getting you about 19 points per game, four rebounds, four assists.
02:20Now, with Aaliyah, she's a volume shooter, right?
02:23So she's only getting you at about 42% from the floor and 35% from three.
02:28I want to see Aaliyah kind of get her shooting percentage splits up a little bit.
02:33Then you got to go to Regan Beers, getting you at 18.1 points per game, a double-double at 10.7 rebounds.
02:40And then Sahara Williams doing almost a double-double at 14.8 rebounds per game.
02:47And a loaded SEC.
02:48Remember, Oklahoma's in the SEC now.
02:51Where do they rank in that neighborhood of South Carolina, Texas, and then obviously LSU?
02:59Maybe sitting right now at the fourth best team in the league.
03:02There's nothing to be ashamed about with that.
