QUACK! 2021 WBB G Bigby Commits

[greenyellow]

Oregon may have a mainly full 2020 class but they've already started on the next class, getting the #23 player overall in the 2021 class, G Taylor Bigby out of Centennial HS (same school as former MBB player Troy Brown) in Las Vegas.

Damn. Graves can recruit his ass off. The guy has a chance to put his stamp on WBB for years to come.

Last week at the football game Graves got the second biggest round of applause, and Sabrina got the most cheers. Hopefully Mullens recognizes this and doesn’t give Graves the Mike White treatment. As long as KG is here... Just wow. His team made me care about women’s basketball, planning a few trips around seeing them play.

Last Spring Graves got an extension until ’25-‘26.

If Kelly Graves tries what Mike White did I absolutely hope that Rob gives him the same treatment.

You enjoy a mediocre softball team?

Nothing about last years team was mediocre and the women that stayed showed themselves to be quite capable but simply lacked any depth. Mike White is allowed to ask for a raise, but whining like a Diva about it was where I lost all respect. He also would have gotten that raise had he shown himself to be anything more than a regular season coach too.

Agreed. Given what kind of roster the softball team had their performance was remarkable, and the recruiting points to a promising season coming up. Re: White & Graves, there are surface similarities in their coaching style; really loose and casual with the players, apparently fun practices. But, while now it looks like that came from a casualness being in Oregon for White, Graves seems to be laying a foundation at Oregon.

Graves doesn’t seem like a diva ...sorta got that vibe from White. Just my opinion.

Graves is building teams that are packing the arena. Last year the team averaged over 7,000 fans a game. Top 10 in the nation. The team probably earned $2-2.5 million last year from attendance, concessions, parking, etc. I think Graves has no problem getting paid.

After White left we saw that the team APR for the prior year was horrible. Not sure what happened, but looks like White was asleep at the wheel. Graves seems to pay attention to all aspects of his players. He is definitely a players' coach, allows them a lot of freedom, but pays attention to details.
