In keeping with SB Nation’s innovative use of social media in reshaping sports journalism, our vision is a women's basketball site that goes beyond merely providing game reports; instead, we want to capture the narratives that fuel our passion for the game, while maintaining the critical stance that helps us understand the game better.

"From a women’s basketball standpoint it’s made our league, which is arguably the toughest league in the country, even tougher. We are bringing in another NCAA Tournament caliber team to our conference. That’s another tough road game and I think it strengthens and expands the top of our league. And maybe, now that we are going down to Texas every other a year, a Texas kid thinks ‘hey, maybe I’d like to play in the BIG EAST’. The college athletics world is changing and this is another example."

-Connecticut Huskies coach Geno Auriemma on the Big East's addition of TCU and how it affects women's basketball...and potentially expands UConn's recruiting reach.
