Lucy Olsen has had an incredible couple of weeks. On Feb 3rd/4th was named B1G & National Player of the Week

[Buffalo43]

Her 3 point shooting has vastly improved

One of her 7 midrange makes:

Uh, I think JuJu might get it or tie with her 38 points, seven blocks and whatever rebounds tonite/- but that was a breakout game after a few “ok” games…

Yep....she's a special player and teammate, for sure. I'll most likely get crap for this.....but I'll say it anyway because it's truly how I feel: I'm not suggesting that Lucy is in the same league (talent wise) as CC.....but I enjoy watching Lucy play more than I did/do CC. No whining, no flopping, no drama....just smiles, tons of encouragement for her teammates, great attitude, and plenty of skillfully played basketball.

If we do go for a guard in the portal and far as that goes even a recruit, she will be a huge tool for the next one, along with the crowd, teammates, and of course, Caitlin Clark.

If Olson keeps this pace up (reasonably of course) and ends the season at 20.5 ppg, 5.5 apg, 4.0 RPG, 36 minutes per game, 3.0 turnovers with her current shooting splits (44% fg, 34% 3pt, 73% FT) am I crazy for thinking that's legit 2nd team all American?

Nice job by the others as well, to get her the ball, recognizing that she was on.

I guess I understand, BUT I'm down with CC22 whining (or whatever) and all. Best competitor I've seen since Jordan. Give me someone with that unabashed drive to win and to be the best. I'm not down with running around smiling and glad handing when were down 15 and just turned the ball over for the 4th straight time. Great team mate, but I'll take Clarks leadership if it drives the team to be great. Isn't that what leadership is? Great friends off the floor, but take no prisoners come game time.....
