Someone with a different opinion about the coach. Quote from Gilliard:
“Coach Paye and her staff are the best of the best at developing players not only in basketball, but all aspects of their life.”

Yeah, someone who wants to maximize her playing time.

Or her NIL. I’m guessing about $10K per word…

Quotes like these kill me because recruits spend like a weekend, one or two recruiting visits, and a couple hours on the phone with the coaching staff, at best. And almost all of those minutes are with the coaches in sales mode. I guess a reputation can proceed a staff and a recruit can go off of that, but, uh, I wouldn't say KP's reputation aligns with what her quote says...

Feel free to add non-conference games as schedules are released.
Mon., November 2 - Arizona in Las Vegas
Wed., December 2 - Stanford at Auburn
Thur., December 17 - Arizona State at Stanford
I *think* we have a return game at Washington and if renewed Gonzaga at home.

Do you know which tournament in Hawaii they will be playing in?
RE: WBB 2026-2027 season -

I’m not really sure. I’m assuming it will be hosted by the university of Hawaii. But don’t quote me on that.

It's probably the "Rainbow Wahine" hosted by the University of Hawaii. Stanford has played there before.

I've gone before. It's not awful. At least it's played in a real college gym. In years past, the tourney field has been real bad. Maybe coaching staff is just looking for 3 easy wins.

“Rainbow Wahine Showdown” (Rainbow Wahine is what the women’s team is called).

I went about 30 years ago and had a wonderful time.
Snorkeling in the morning, WBB in the afternoon and Hawaii music and dinner on the beach for three days.
The gym is nice and cool in the afternoon.
It is hard to have a bad time in Hawaii.
Good restaurants in Honolulu.

2012 Stanford upset reigning champion Baylor with Brittney Griner in the Rainbow Wahine Thanksgiving tournament. Not a bad opponent.

At least that one was live streamed
for free.
(Although the game did cost me $50 because I told the kid that Stanford wouldn't win. "Will you give me 50 bucks if they do?" "Sure.")

My reaction was that it was an awful photoshop job in an era when AI can merge pictures much more seamlessly.

Not a good idea to photoshop in our two european players.
What is the point?
Maybe they are with their national teams.

um... Swain is right in the middle of the front row...
Looks more like Cardboard cutouts than photoshop...
