Maryland Terrapins women's basketball

I'm gonna see if there's a laugh or two somewhere in any of these, uh, these match-ups.

But coming up after the break, Chantel and I sat down with Maryland guard Oluchi Okonwa, who recently told us that more than 100 women's college basketball players have joined the push to unionize.

Hmm.

We'll get into it right after this.

Don't go anywhere.

[upbeat music] Okay, and now we welcome in Maryland senior guard Oluchi Okonwa.

Oluchi, welcome to the show.

Thank you so much for having me, guys.

You released your non-conference schedule early in September, and impressive who you have on this slate.

You have Maryland, you have Princeton, James Madison, Army.

I can read everyone off, but those were just a couple that stand out to me.

What went into this non-conference schedule, and what excites you about it?

and Olivia Edwards, because you end opponent possessions with one shot and immediately triggers a fast break.

So when Watkins and Edwards comes into the basketball game in Maryland on November the 2nd, when Joyce Edwards and Chloe Kitts goes to get them some Gatorade and put the towel over their head and get some rest, Business picks up defensively for this basketball team because you bring in two, six, three players that pride themselves on rebounding and on defense with a sprinkle of shot blocking, second chance scoring, and drawing front court fouls early in quarters, getting the Gamecocks, and the bonus quickly.

This is what this basketball team is going to do with their offensive rebounding with this twin tower effect.

I'm so excited.

Eventually, and I hope it happens in Paris, where those two basketball players are playing at the same time.

And I want to see how offenses deal with it.

I want to see what Maryland does.

I want to see what North Carolina, Southern Cal, Duke, UConn, what they do with that situation.

right

Maryland has a good women's basketball program and maybe if you want to talk about teams that don't really know but what what is Rutgers bringing to the Big Ten

Nothing.

Well, no, they bring us laughs.

And they got to the title game with a And Mike Davis in, what, 2002? Yeah, Mike did,

yes.

Maryland?

Yeah.

Three and a half weeks away.

We play versus top 15 basketball team, Maryland, November 2nd.

Couple of weeks away, couple of months away.

In Paris, France, it is going down.

Yeah.

Chose Vanderbilt over Miami, North Carolina, Maryland.

So she chose them over two other, a ranked team, Maryland, another top 10 team.

Who was it? It was Maryland.

Who? It was, uh, I'm gonna have to pull this up on a different screen.

North Carolina.

So she chose Vanderbilt over.

People who's in the, which North Carolina was in the top 10 yesterday.

It could be them vice versa.

Did she leave somewhere? Didn't she leave? I thought she went to like Maryland or some shit.

I don't know.

Well, y'all let us know in the comments because I'm moving on.

All of this is nothing.

Shoot, I even liked how

Maryland played.

They ended the season.
