NT Women vs. Texas (11/12/18) - IN DENTON

Great effort from the ladies.   Mims and Bradley kept the game close.   I also thought it was Goodhart's best game.  

With that kind of effort, NT should have the best season since Mitchell was a player. 

I doubt they are going to play many teams with 6'4 and 6'5 big bodies in the paint.   I will also add the usual losers' refrain; the refereeing particularly in the first half didn't help.

Their size killed us on the glass and closed down our passing lanes. It was near impossible for us to finish in the lane. They do have more depth but I was actually surprised the talent gap wasn't wider. Another good recruiting class and we might have something here. At the very least we should be competitive in CUSA this year.

Losing Bradley next year will hurt a lot.

We will have to replace her by committee. Mims looks to have dramatically improved her ability to drive and finish at the rim. I know Sheperd missed some shots against UT but for a freshman I think she's shown a pretty good game from the free throw line in and works hard on defense. I also like Owens for some of the same reasons. George can also be good for us at the post if she can polish her shooting a little. I expect Townley will improve throughout the season after missing all last year due to injury.

I don't see anyone close to Bradley's ability on next year's team.   

The two NT jucos Mitchell and George will likely be much better next year.   

Shepard looks good in early play.   

Mims is a totally different kind of player but is very good.   

Townley and Terrell are forwards but should keep improving. 

Owens hasn't shown much so far, but may have the closest to Bradley's game.
