Comments on: Auguste in March https://dev.ndnation.com/auguste-in-march/ The Independent Voice of Notre Dame Athletics Fri, 11 May 2018 16:51:15 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: franklin https://dev.ndnation.com/auguste-in-march/#comment-12689 Fri, 15 Mar 2013 15:18:27 +0000 https://dev.ndnation.com/?p=3800#comment-12689 This is a strange team. There is no consistency from any player-not just the freshmen. Every starter has been invisible in more than one game this year. It is more like a baseball team, which can produce a different hero every game, but in reverse. I’ve never seen such inconsistency from any team, and certainly not from a winning team.

I never know what kind of performance any one of them will produce, nor the team. But I do think Auguste should have been given many more minutes in the December games to get him ready for the tournament. He is an absolute monster and more aggressive than any ND player I can remember since Shumate. They could have used his muscle-even if it was only for 5 fouls in 10 minutes as a power reserve.

So, while I have no idea what they will do in the NCAA, I’m pretty sure that the womens team will be in yet another Final Four. Sky has delivered unequaled leadership to a young, talented team and has willed them to wins when defeats seemed inevitable. It is one of the most enjoyable ND teams I have seen, and their HOF coach is completely underrated despite her annual brilliant performance. I don’t know if they can beat the Baylor giant, but if anyone can, it is this team.
