Whoa--Some of you need to get off the coaches' and team's backs and get behind them!! This basically is a brand new team with limited tuneup games and practices due to covid. This group has a lot of very talented players that just need to continue to gel as a team! And remember in basketball it's not how teams start in the fall but how they finish in March that is most important! GO YOTES!!! I will always support any athlete who chooses to play for USD, and I am on record saying that I am willing to hold off evaluating the team until after the season, but Todd is paid to win. He deserves any valid criticism when we are losing.

I think the keys to the game tonight are 1) big guys don't all get in early foul trouble and 2) don't give up a bunch of wide-open 3s. (#2 is difficult as SDSU is good at creating them) Do those and we have a chance tonight.

unless there is a formula they used this tourney it just qoes to show the Summit favoring sdsu and ndsu. Both got designated the home team twice and both were the home team in their rivalry game.
the Jacks also got to be host to USD in the regular season as well. i cant say enough how important the home court is in the womens game.

Game related (not meant to put gas on the fire) - the technical by Lee seemed to take the air out of the player's comeback last night. And I think Lee knew it. I disagree completely with this. What was the foul situation at the time? I think they were in double bonus already, or for sure 1 on 1 bonus, and NDSU had like three or four team fouls. Kreuser (sp?) had just lower his shoulder, knocked our post back to clear space and flipped in a two. They seemed to be doing a lot of that in the second half. That brought me out of my chair yelling at the TV and I wasn't surprised Lee got a "t" at all. In my opinion he would have been remiss not to let the refs have it at that point. As far as taking the wind out of the players sails, and I'm not saying it did, that would be on them. Coaches get technicals to fire up their team all the time and many times it works. I realize it's going to be open season on Lee this year and I'm not going to become an apologist for him, but this wasn't a coaching blunder. Tell me how I'm wrong if you'd like.

who are these guys in red tonight. dont recognise these guys. 35-17 Jacks, i mean ummmm no thats right the coyotes are on top. uber agressive right now. the coyotes can win if they keep that gas petal down. as soon as they let off the jacks are gonna come fast. the key, dont let up. easier said than done.

56-42 at the half. Unf***n Believable. Stanley are you kidding me, do you miss sir. The Coyotes have been bad this year for much of the year but give credit where credit is due. I am not sure the charge on Fuller was actually a charge that allowed the SDSU last second three. That was only a first look guess on the foul but I did not think the Rabbit had position. I could be wrong.
The Coyotes cannot let up. No Friedel for the second half due to a flagrant 2. That is no excuse for the Jacks but their road back is made much more difficult. This first half performance is nice but they have to finish to make that first half really count. Helluva half.

Is everyone still mad? Yotes up 56-41 at halftime. Umude a perfect 12/12 inside the arc, 26 points at half. He is making ridiculous shot after ridiculous shot.
He also took a ridiculous shot to the nuts. Thank you very much Noah Freidel. Enjoy your shower. Umude scored a couple more after you made an ass out of yourself.

I really hope the student body remembers Friedel's infraction when we finally get to play them in Verm again. The taunting should be entertaining.

Great win and incredible performance by Umude! This team needed this win. It gives them something to build off of moving forward. Go Yotes!

What a performance. Like Billy Hoyle in White Men Can’t Jump. “I’m in a zone!”

I have zero idea what happened but it sure is nice to get a win. Hopefully they can build from here. Very nice to be the bunnies.
