- 0:00Speaker 1: Back with Gino Oriama on the Women's Basketball Coaches Show,
- 0:03Speaker 1: Huskies and USC this weekend from Los Angeles and then
- 0:06Speaker 1: Marquette next Wednesday, before taking on the Iowahaw guys next
- 0:10Speaker 1: Saturday at the Barclays Center in the Champions Classic. Let's
- 0:14Speaker 1: talk a little bit about USC here a bit. Obviously
- 0:17Speaker 1: no Juju Watkins, and this will be the fourth time
- 0:19Speaker 1: in what a year and a half calendar wise, I
- 0:22Speaker 1: think that Yukon and USC have played. Still a very
- 0:25Speaker 1: formidable team. They seem pretty young though, but they have
- 0:28Speaker 1: an outstanding freshman in Jazzy Davidson that's put up some
- 0:32Speaker 1: good numbers along with Kennedy Smith. And this is going
- 0:35Speaker 1: to be a fun test out at the Galen Center.
- 0:40Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think so. And you know, Dave, they've
- 0:46Speaker 2: had they've had a good, good schedule. Now they've they've
- 0:54Speaker 2: played Notre Dame and that game went right down to
- 0:56Speaker 2: the y I had Notre Dame that they could have won. Uh,
- 1:01Speaker 2: I'm gonna say, They've played n C State, They've played
- 1:06Speaker 2: South Carolina, so they've had a really good They've had
- 1:10Speaker 2: a really good schedule and yeah, they're young. You know,
- 1:14Speaker 2: Jazzy has come in as a freshman and uh kind
- 1:19Speaker 2: of taken on a little bit of that joo Ji
- 1:23Speaker 2: Watkins go where she does a little bit of everything.
- 1:29Speaker 2: H And you know, they're they're replacing a lot of
- 1:32Speaker 2: players for sure, but I think they have a lot
- 1:37Speaker 2: of young talent. Ah Glyndon Jones from U C l A.
- 1:42Speaker 2: The transfer in. You know, So I think it's going
- 1:47Speaker 2: to be a really really really good test for US
- 1:50Speaker 2: ah at their place, the way they play, you know,
- 1:56Speaker 2: they want to play fast and they you know, so
- 1:59Speaker 2: do we. So I think it's gonna be Hey, listen,
- 2:03Speaker 2: every game we play with them has been a great game. Yeah,
- 2:06Speaker 2: so I wouldn't expect this to be any different.
- 2:09Speaker 1: How is the Dune kid from Georgia Tech fit in?
- 2:12Speaker 1: He's put up some pretty good numbers, it seems.
- 2:16Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, I think that's a that's another example of
- 2:21Speaker 2: you know, there's a need to fill and uh, you
- 2:26Speaker 2: come in and and you figure it out early on.
- 2:33Speaker 2: So I think that that influx of new players has
- 2:38Speaker 2: helped to you know, kind of less than this thing
- 2:44Speaker 2: of not having too to Yeah.
- 2:46Speaker 1: Peth Burns, of course, has been around a while working
- 2:48Speaker 1: on Lindsay Gottlieb Will net Crocketts on the staff. I
- 2:52Speaker 1: guess will net got into the Southern California Basketball Hall
- 2:56Speaker 1: of Fame this past week, so I guess technically you
- 2:58Speaker 1: have another Hall of Famer. I mean, why I remember
- 3:01Speaker 1: will Netts, like especially tournament time. As Randy Levigne used
- 3:04Speaker 1: to say, She's come out of hibernation just when you
- 3:06Speaker 1: need her in the postseason.
- 3:09Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, it's so so amazing, you know, follow
- 3:16Speaker 2: her career, such a dominant player, and in Southern cal uh,
- 3:25Speaker 2: Southern California as a region, such a you know, uh,
- 3:31Speaker 2: a tough kid, h fantastic rebounder. And you're right, I
- 3:41Speaker 2: think being compared to a bear is perfect for her
- 3:46Speaker 2: because you know, she's big, she moves well, and when
- 3:53Speaker 2: they come out of their cave and they're hungry, like,
- 3:55Speaker 2: but she came out of march. See something that see
- 3:59Speaker 2: something in the watch. That's for sure. Yeah, and a
- 4:03Speaker 2: great human being for sure.
- 4:05Speaker 1: I mean I recall was that the Texas game, the
- 4:08Speaker 1: final four and oh three in Atlanta. Without her, you
- 4:11Speaker 1: probably don't win that game in rally and beat the Longhorns.
- 4:14Speaker 2: Absolutely absolutely, Uh. She had a loose ball saved diving
- 4:21Speaker 2: out of bounds that one of the great plays at
- 4:24Speaker 2: basketball at Yukon Basketball.
- 4:28Speaker 1: You know Ramba with us here on the Women's Basketball
- 4:31Speaker 1: Coaches Show. Uh, you've got Marquette and Iyaware coming up.
- 4:35Speaker 1: I know the focuses on USC, and I'm focused also
- 4:37Speaker 1: on exams this week. How I guess it's more than
- 4:41Speaker 1: an assistant coach thing depending on who has the scout.
- 4:44Speaker 1: But how far out do you guys start worrying about
- 4:47Speaker 1: an opponent down the road as far as getting ready
- 4:50Speaker 1: for games go. I mean I would imagine different because
- 4:52Speaker 1: of who's got the scout, right.
- 4:56Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we're always about to you ahead, you know.
- 5:04Speaker 2: So you know, Morgan's been working on USC now for
- 5:10Speaker 2: at least two weeks and uh and uh, I'm not
- 5:18Speaker 2: sure who's got marquead uh, but whoever does, they've been
- 5:24Speaker 2: working on him. It might be uh, let's see Jamel.
- 5:33Speaker 2: Jamel had the ball, CD had go on before that
- 5:40Speaker 2: mm hm, and Morgan has so I guess that would
- 5:43Speaker 2: be Tanya as USC. Okay, So that's you know, and
- 5:49Speaker 2: and c D would be working on Iowa for uh
- 5:56Speaker 2: for the last for that last week and then all
- 5:59Speaker 2: of next week. So we try to stay three ahead.
- 6:02Speaker 2: You know, those three, those three rotate and uh, you know,
- 6:09Speaker 2: we don't really get heavy, heavy into the scout of
- 6:12Speaker 2: report until two days before the game.
- 6:15Speaker 1: Right, right, you don't want to give the kids so
- 6:17Speaker 1: much information. They're over saturated with her, right, and.
- 6:21Speaker 2: We want to focus on getting better. Right now, Let's
- 6:25Speaker 2: let's work on what we need to work on. Uh,
- 6:30Speaker 2: you know, so we have practice tomorrow, and tomorrow and
