I can never understand that. How is it "showing the other team up" if you are playing only your bench players and let them play normally? I'm fine with waiting until the shot clock winds down before running a play, but just heaving up random three pointers and then playing no defense?
Personally I hate it whenever I play sports or games and my opponents decide to let up because they felt sorry for me and didn't want to embarrass me, that closer ending score doesn't mean anything to me if those extra few points are because my opponents went easy.

Agree as well. The problem was the people Tara had on the court for extended minutes were NOT giving their best. They played as individuals. There was no teamwork and Dominican took advantage. Good for them.
UCLA is extending an invitation for season ticket holders and donors to travel on the UCLA team charter and stay at the team hotel for 3 away games.
UCLA @ Arkansas; WBB Basketball Hall of Fame Showcase (Mohegan Sun Resort)- UCLA vs. Florida State & Utah vs. South Carolina and UCLA @ Ohio State.
The Utah-South Carolina is so intriguing that I might do that one. Just wanted to share news about other PAC-12 programs and what they're doing to promote support. The Bruins' fan base is not as large as ours, but there are signs of growth and Cori's openness in trying new things is positive.

That is a very interesting idea. I have never heard of a program doing that before. I think if Stanford offered the same deal, there would be some interest. Maybe a way for UCLA to offset some travel expenses? Think 30-40 additional people/fans riding on the plan and paying for a portion for their airfare? A way to fill up some unused seats on the charter plane with paying loyal fans.
