No. 8 UtahWBB will face No. 4 StanfordWBB Friday night in Palo Alto in a critical Pac-12 matchup.

This was January 2021, in the middle of a college basketball season marred by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and the positive tests and protocol mandates that went along with it. It was a trying season for Roberts and her University of Utah women’s basketball, who would finish at 5-16 overall and 4-15 in the Pac-12.

VanDerveer’s message: “Lynne, I don’t want to see another coach at Utah. You need to get your crap together.” VanDerveer and Stanford have long been among the gatekeepers of women’s basketball in the Pac-12, if not in the West, with three national championships, 13 trips to the Final Four, and 26 conference regular-season championships dating back to 1989. Rarely has the standard fallen, especially since the turn of the century when trips to the NCAA Tournament’s second weekend became commonplace.

The Utes are 15-1, the only hiccup coming just two weeks ago at Colorado. They are considered a top-tier team within a top-tier Power Five league as the Pac-12 currently has six teams ranked, and a whopping eight projected to make the NCAA Tournament, per ESPN’s latest bracketology offering earlier this week.
