The Her Hoop Stats Podcast: WNBA & NCAA Women’s Basketball

The first week of games is nearly in the books and we've got TAKES. Okay, so we're trying to not overreact to what is (for most teams) one game. But Megan Gauer and Rob Joyce do have takeaways from the season's opening week that saw three good games Monday in South Carolina-Michigan, USC-Ole Miss and UCLA-Louisville, plus some upsets on Thursday - we see you, Harvard. The duo talks those games, talks hot seat, and dishes out their hottest takes for the season.
