Michigan Women's Basketball Appreciation Thread
What a great effort!
Tough exciting game by our team today after last weekend beating #3 Tennessee and today getting a shot at knocking off another kingpin.
Sure, victory would have been sweeter, but after watching these Michigan gals step up at NCAA Tournament time and take a perennial college hoops powerhouse to the final shot of overtime, how about a great big MICHIGAN show of appreciation!
Amen great game ladies, you should be proud of your accomplishments I know I’m proud of you gals! Thanks for a great season!

Aren’t they all back next year, except maybe one?
Same thing I wrote in the Diary:
Absolutely! Great proud impressive fight.
Awesome season by an awesome team. Hats off ladies!
I'm very happy for their success this year, but they coulda/shoulda won today. So that is a little disappointing. Next season could be a great year too.
That Baylor team played great defense and their star delivered for them. We played them tough and with heart. I can’t be disappointed in them, while Baylor had more talent, we had more character.
Here, here. Way to GO BLUE! Supreme effort.
Great effort and they never caved in when they down by double digits. Probably the best season the ladies have ever had. GO BLUE!!!
Went toe to toe with Baylor in a game most thought they would’ve got blown out in. Much respect to all the ladies and KBA! They only have to replace Hailey Brown and AK Johnson next season.
Can't they come back due to the covid rule?
Great game and amazing season.
Definitely could see this run as a future "aneurysm of leadership" type moment for the program.
WTF? "Aneurysm of leadership"?
What a game for the women, giving Baylor everything they could handle. KBA had an excellent game plan. I love watching this team, and I’ll be watching next year.
Great job ladies! Be proud of what you did this year.
when an opponent goes 11/11 from the floor you just tip your cap and get back in the gym. . .
Excellent season by KBA and this squad. Well done.
Woot! Woot! Woot!
Fucking fantastic season ladies!!!!
You should be very proud.
Wonderful to see the women's basketball program achieve what they have this season. Their hard work has paid off. They can hold their heads high that they can now compete with the best in college basketball. Well done, ladies! Go Blue!
Coach Kim has built a solid program that is poised to go from very good to great this fall with her best recruiting class ever joining an outstanding nucleus of returnees. I encourage all who live locally to get season tickets. They are only $60 each for lower bowl seats!
Great game today. Let’s build on it!!
Hail to our women of basketball. Kudos to KBA. Hard fought game. Too bad we couldn't pull off the upset. Took Baylor down to the wire, though.
Someone said this in the game thread and I agree with it completely: The feeling after today’s game is exactly like the feeling after Michigan lost to 1-seed Duke in 2011. To get where they got is a huge accomplishment and they should feel proud of what they did; at the same time, to have a chance at a ginormous step forward for the program and just barely come up short leaves a somewhat-hallow feeling. The season feels unfinished.
They were within a fake eyelash of winning in OT.
Great(est) Season! Go Blue!
Well.. those fuckers were pretty long
Fantastic showing. A win would have been well-deserved but hopefully this is just the beginning of even more success in the future.
Congrats to the ladies on an awesome season. You all should be very proud. Left it all on the floor and emptied the tank.
Great season ladies. Thanks for the fun.
Fantastic job by the ladies! There is a lot of heart and 'want-to' on this team. I don't know too much about the team, but I do know Amy Dilk, Danielle Rauch, Leigha Brown, Emily Kiser, and Naz will all be back as seniors next year. Next year looks like it has the makings of a very special year.
Great season Ladies!!
Thanks, it was a pleasure to watch, your all class.
An historically excellent season and no doubt more to come.
You should be proud.
Great job, way to represent your team and university.
Michigan WBB and Coach KBA showed they can compete with top teams in the nation. Great game and terrific season, despite extraordinary challenge of playing key stretches without veteran point guard Amy Dilk and #2 scorer Leigha Brown, plus athletic department shutdown. Congratulations!
The game was entertaining to watch big time.
My heart was on hold in the final moments.
It was a great season.
Go Blue.
With this level of talent as the baseline, our ladies are probably a player or two from being a Sweet 16 regular and a potential Final 4 team. Congratulations to these young ladies and give KBA a raise.
Great game and it looked like they might pull off the win at the end.
Great season for this team.
Go Blue!
Absolutely great season. Set a new standard for Michigan WBB. Bright future! Congratulations, ladies!
If this program can tighten up on ball security, watch the fuck out. Sky’s the limit!!
Amen to that! Unforced turnovers have been our undoing during the whole KBA era. It has been the main weakness in her coaching, which has otherwise been excellent.
What a great year for this team. Very impressed.
Kept it close at the end after a very evenly played game.
This team was fun to follow!
Congratulations, ladies!
GO BLUE!!
So much fight in those girls. I’d rather have that than raw talent.
They're true Michigan Women. Great season--a trail-blazer for the program. Go Blue!
Great effort indeed-they left it all on the floor.
Smashed a few records along the way. Stand tall with heads held high. You made us all proud.
Not just appreciation. This team has officially arrived. They took a perennial power to OT and not by chance. They had a legit chance to win.
Kudos to KBA and the entire WBB TEAM. Helluva run. Helluva season. Helluva start to national relevance.
GO BLUE!!!

UNDERRATED clap... clap... clap clap clap
well done ladies. This program is about to turn a major corner.

I loved watching the game. I know nothing about WBB, but the ladies made me proud to be a Michigan Wolverine. I expect I will watch more M WBB games next season. Great team!

So proud.
Go Blue!
I’m sure they would’ve preferred the win, but there is such a thing as a moral victory. For perspective, UConn (one of the other old powerhouses) blew out Iowa by 20. You’re not supposed to think you even have a chance.
Taking Baylor to OT means they can play with the best. Not soon, but today.
