..I learned quite a bit.

-- ND is 3 and 3 against UConn in recent Final Fours, with all three wins in the semi's. That will lead to bracket watching in the future!

-- Mulkey's Baylor teamss with Griner and Sims only got to the final 4 once?
Wow...given the singular nature of Griner and Sim's ability, would've expect more.

Wallace's injury hurt them against OSU when it called for upperclassman leadership and none of the younger guards could give it.

Still, Kim's got to feel the pressure to maximize her twin towers while she has them. A'quira DaCosta will help them athletically, but let's see if any of young guards can guide the ship. Maybe Kim will toughen up the out-of-conference schedule this year.

-- As good as Karen Alston has been recruiting at Texas, I still expect Mulkey to be the primary rep of that conference to the Final Four (if at all).

-- Dawn maximized South Carolina's run, but was helped beyond belief by A'ja Wilson. No A'ja, no title. Will have to see if any one of the good forwards she has left steps up.
