Just keep winning. Very nice 2nd half. We need to start out with Holmes getting touches. Will we be playing Wednesday?

Got to get Holmes the ball and let her get to work.

Grace Berger is looking for her shot early today. She’s got 11 of our 16 points.

Right. Are we rested or rusty? I was disappointed with our play in the B1G tournament. New season.

Hope they are ready. I don’t want to see a slow start.

Yes. Exactly. Lewis has spent time in the assistant coaching network to be able to pull in talented people to assist him. Who do you think Armaan Franklin would be more motivated to play for: Lewis or Belien ?

Who are we? What is our culture? I’m tired of trying to reinvent Indiana basketball. I want leadership on my bench that knows it, lived it, and promotes it.

Michael Lewis is Indiana basketball. He’s developed a very good resume having worked in several programs under successful coaches over the years. I particularly like his experience as an offensive specialist. Recruiting has been a responsibility. He was very tough minded as RMK’ s point guard. I really doubt that his personality has changed. This guy is in the middle of the UCLA huddle at crunch time diagraming the play he wants them to run. He knows. I see him as an invaluable resource on any teams bench and I want to see him come home. Frankly, the only reason why we aren’t talking about him as our next hire is because he has spent his career in the assistant roll. I would think that after UCLA finishes their season he will be offered head coaching jobs. He would be great to have as an assistant and then advance him into the top spot should it present itself.

And why am I not surprised!

Exactly. They are suffering from little brother syndrome. Always has and always will.

I think it’s significant that no more players have entered the portal. I applaud their patience, because this is killing me.

I’ve been concerned about depth of talent coming off the bench. Having 2 players opt out hurts depth. I really like Browne but I believe she’s also dealing with a hip injury. Let’s hope the starters refocus and make a run in the tournament.

Thanks for the info. I had not seen any statement about her status. I hope she recovers from her injury. She was able to come in off the bench providing size and skill down low. Depth of the bench is very important. She was a late addition and she reclassified to come to Indiana. I would like to see her rejoin the team next year healthy and ready to play.

Great win today. Nicole C-H is really starting to assert herself. She’s an asset in the backcourt. When she left the game having fouled out, our bench depth is troubling. I was wondering about Browne. The last game had her listed as unavailable. Do we know her status?

Hey, thanks for the updates.

I have no problem with Jerome’s expression of frustration at the end of the Rutgers game. Frankly, I wish he had showed his displeasure during the first half when we let a double digit lead slip away.

Good things happen when to attack the basket.

I swear, I’ll never get used to this,

I think we’re shooting 28% from the floor! We must be playing down to Wisconsin’s level.

I’d really like to see the girls attack that press. Takes too long to get into our offense.

Campbell will be our mvp the way this is going.

38 - 19 at the half.

I'm enjoying watching Jalen Moore playing against Michigan. We saw him play in high school. The pride of Cloverdale.

Love that Jay Edwards spin move. Thanks for sharing the game.

I stumbled on a headline from SBNation about questioning if UK basketball should be adding Haarms to their roster since they need bigs. Wow, if true this is amazing.
