If you've ever clicked on Sports Illustrated's link to their women's hoops coverage, you'll know what a misnomer "coverage" is. Tournament time, though, allows them to bring out such classics as Kelli Anderson and (relatively new to a national audience) Aditi Kinkhabwala.

Aditi writes about -- what else -- Marist's run, with some nice side commentary from Villanova's Harry Perretta. Kelli writes about the UConn bunch.

Ian Thomsen gets a big DOH! 'cause he thinks he's
"stumbled across a far more intriguing draft story which, until today, has gone virtually unnoticed in the NCAA women's tournament."

"The most amazing thing of all about the Candace Parker scenario is that so very little, as far as I can tell, has been written or said about it.
Guess he missed the endless message board discussions, GM discussions and articles on the subject. For instance, most recently, the Parker profile in USA Today by Dick Patrick where she said she wouldn't jump to the W.
