    One of the finest 18 minute Indiana basketball careers imaginable lol.
    I think this is a little disrespectful to a then 17yo who left her family on christmas day, was made promises and then as you say got 18 minutes but in 2 minute blocks. If I tell my 12 kids that if they all go and pick food and all will get fed and then I only feed 5 the result will be 6 leaving the house. Not only that the 5 that get fed get so tired they are knocked out of the tournament first game

    True or not, no negative talk of any kind is allowed on this wbb forum. A couple people from this forum (who have been on Twitter and Instagram harassing former players such as Danielle williams, telling her to take IUWBB out if her bio because she was "ungrateful") tried to claim that I personally message IU recruits to tell them not to attend iu (insane) 
     
    Bendu is an unusual situation because she thought she was on good terms with the program and then they released a statement without her consent (claiming that she wrote it) on why she was leaving. Then allegedly when she was trying to decide on a new school, they would contact IU to ask about her and the iu staff was saying that she wasn't a good teammate, didn't accept her role, ect.. what iu doesn't understand is that those things come back to the person eventually.
    Hannah noveroske was in contact with a few schools, one of them in the big east. One of the assistants called iu to ask about hannah and they had all kinds of negative things to say about her work ethic, conditioning, ect --even though I've seen with my own eyes how hard shes worked in bloomington. Why would they do that?
    And these 2 specific situations are not the first of their kind here at IU. 
    What the staff needs to realize is that when you do these things to people, word spreads.
     
    *fun fact* teri moren has never had one single season without multiple transfers
    Okay now you all can come on the attack

    The instate transfers from this season are worrisome, particularly Allen, the reigning Miss Basketball. Negative recruiting momentum coming off a really good season is unfortunate. Patterson looks to be a good transfer but long term, you have to build classes from HS seniors. If there is any sense that IU is not a desired place to send their players from HS and AAU coaches, that can hurt long term. Perception is reality. If the perception is “there’s a problem” down there , it can hurt with recruiting. Is it enough to give up on Moren? I don’t think so but it’s something to watch.

    That being said, I will say 15 scholarships in WBB is a large number. Hard to play that many players. Can imagine there would be frustration from those riding the bench.

    Until you can actually show something concrete or something from someone on the inside then it all comes off as a bunch of misfits whining because they couldn't cut it even though their mommy and daddy said how awesome they are.  There isn't this much depression in the world and frankly I find it infuriating that people are marginalizing REAL depression which is a potentially deadly issue.  Depression IS NOT when you are sad because things didn't go your way.
    For example, one of the tweets talks about how Moren brought in a girl from overseas and then ran her off a year later.  You know what, if she wasn't good enough then GOOD.  That is exactly what Moren should do.  It is her job to win, not coddle marginal players.

    Pretty well-stated response by you here IMO.
    I very much appreciate the food for thought you’re bringing to the board.
    However, strong stuff like this is bound to bring cross-examination.

    Beeler is signed to play for vincennes u next season 20-21--but get this, her page also says XavierWBB commit. I guess Xavier wanted her but didn't have the scholarship/and though she needed to be on the court somewhere to develop and get back in shape so she will play for Xavier in 21-22

    Seygan Robins is entering the transfer portal, first reported by Danielle Lerner of The Athletic and Jody Demling of Cardinal Authority. The 5-foot-10 guard is seeking more playing time.  Louisville coach Jeff Walz says Robins is welcome back at Louisville if she doesn't find a suitable team.
    Robins played in two games this season as a sophomore before redshirting due to an ankle injury. She had five rebounds and two steals in 14 minutes against Murray State Nov. 8 in her final game of the 2019-20 season. 
    Robins appeared in 26 games and averaged 7.5 minutes as a freshman.
    She was named Kentucky’s 2018 Miss Basketball as a senior at Mercer County. She led Mercer County to two state championships in high school.
    A separate article indicated she had surgery on her ankle in January and would apply for a medical redshirt as she'd only appeared in 2 games.

    We offered her on monday, if she was a high major recruit, she would have had offers before then. Rumor has it she wanted to go to UK or UTK but the offer never came. I did some research and it seems her offers were OVC level. She decided between IU and Cincinnati, her two latest and highest offers.
    Her teammate Tess Darby was highly recruited by SEC schools who also followed chloe but never extended her offers. Basically she is the kind of recruit you keep on the back burner and offer late if nothing else pans out--that being said, she is a nice athlete who is about on the level of waggoner. Played about the same level of competition that vincennes rivet would play too, hence the eye popping numbers.
    Saw her at an indy aau a few years back, she can contribute here but it wont be right away for sure

    I saw some nice video highlights as well, but it seemed like she wasnt really playing against great competition. However, if you have a roster spot in the WNBL you probably are nothing to scoff at. I cant find stats for the season, but it doesnt appear that she played a whole lot for the boomers, but they have several WNBA players on their roster...so not surprising since she is 16-17 years old

    Hope it is ok to post here and give you some more info and insight into Paige;  these highlights are more reflective of the talent level against womenPurdue vs COE.pdf.
    She played against many WNBL players for the centre of excellence in the NBL1 which is a senior semi-pro in the WNBL offseason. There is a 6ft6 opal in the opposition who had played Europe.
    The COE team has a lot of girls who went into overtime vs the USA 19s at Worlds, (UCLA, Missouri, Stanford, Gonzaga commits in that team).
    Paige is also a 3 sport athlete, competed at Nationals in the 200m (is fast and can run all game both ways) and Discus and was a 3-time state discus champ.

    FIBA u17 stats where she played 2 years up
    https://www.fiba.basketball/oceania/u17women/2019/player/Paige-Price
    National School Final 3 months ago played whole game against incoming Stanford and Missouri Commit, Game High 25 points, some big bomb 3's from way outside the FIBA 3 point line (Discus experience)
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Zfyr7Krbkw
    Also started with Jaz Shelley from Oregon as a 14 year old playing in the Big V which is a tier below WNBL, hit this game-winner with a pass from Shelley to point the team into the grand final. (Also on court with Jaz and Paige is Peyton LIttle Oklahoma and Sydney Coleman TCU)https://twitter.com/paigepriceaus/status/1031084261145628674
    First WNBL points vs China national team, pass from Ezi McBegor who has just been drafted WNBAhttps://twitter.com/AusEliteGirlsBa/status/1171745527915937792
    We know her and your supporter base is exactly what she thrives on, she is excited to be playing with this team, your game against South Carolina showed how much of an Australian style you play; that was the clincher, tough, hard press, basketball.
    Also played against Purdue last year and had about 16 points, COE won by 23 but Purdue didn't have their main player
