Uh, Having standards is not a bad thing. This program was trending upward before Teri ever left her ISU team sitting at the airport to come take this job. She has gotten our first "5 star" but you do realize these rankings being as widespread as they are is pretty new as well. You don't think tyra would be a 5 star if she were re-ranked today? And if you don't think we should have done well enough to make the tourney the last 2 years then your expectations are simply too low.. imo this program has become stagnant and is no longer trending upward..some nights their athleticism saves them and other nights they look like a mess..not unlike the uber talented under performing FCTC teams. I guess you will finally agree with me after her 9th year. Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

They aren't going to hire moren. If they want mediocrity, they can just keep Sharon. They are literally the same coach. Hit and miss recruiting, lack of relationship with most players and always doing just enough to look like they are doing their job. Edit** im happy for the seniors getting to extend their careers a little but all these WNIT runs do is pad CTMs record and delay the upward trend I expect this program to make. Which is why I can't get that excited about 2 deep WNIT runs when we should have easily made the tourney with our talent the last 2 years. Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

Evansville paper still listed cheaney as one of the final 3 candidates today Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

Actually hickey said--- that the athletic director said the numbers were false, but he (hickey) got those numbers from 2 different sources. Spencer just knows he can deny since being a private U they don't have to say what they are going to pay like public universities do. UE is also allegedly trying to block Dru Smith a transfer to several schools, including d2 southern indiana Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

Some of them may stay just depends on the coach. Some of them leaving* May not be a bad thing. Only ones i would take on the whole team is Ryan Taylor and dru smith Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

" “I finished the first round of phone interviews today,” Spencer said. “We will be bringing them in starting this week, hopefully getting through this process quickly.” Sources indicate Calbert Cheaney is the potential frontrunner. Spencer said a reasonably-expedited search was the plan Wednesday morning in the hours after Marty Simmons was officially fired after 11 seasons as head coach." From evansville paper. Seems A.D. is really tight lipped about the search. Rumor is calbert is asking for 1.5 million for him and staff..double what Simmons was allotted. Pretty ballsy for a first time head coach Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

Because she's from far far away from indiana? Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

Not gonna have much for maryland.. Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

Saw a tweet about dukes lexie brown saying she was the only active d1 player with 2000+ points 500+ assists and 300+ steals...tyra HAS to be close to that steals number?? Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

She was going to back up lindsay allen there is a 0% chance she would have played in front of allen. Often you play 6 players in the first group because you want your backup pg/6th man to mesh with the starters..and when she was able to play again after all her bad luck with illness and injury...mcgraw picked up lili Thompson to play back up pg so ali would have been the third option at point this year for nd. That's why she left..makes me wonder if she never really fully bounced back after injury. Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

Idk where you heard that ali was going to start at nd but it is not true haha..she is a solid, consistent point guard and was going to put up minutes but I don't believe she was in contention for a starting spot at any point. She will be a great addition to this team but she isn't going to replace the production of buss. To be honest, wise is more proven at this level and I'm more excited to see what she does, along with penn and Berger. Patberg just likes to do alot of dribbling so we will see how she runs this offense Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

This kid is good. Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

I spoke too soon about us being in rhythm..we got realllly lucky that was called a travel..looked like a jump stop to me honestly. 5 more minutes! Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

Now we look like we are in a rhythm. Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

Still waiting for a more comfortable lead! Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

Has anyone ever noticed that most of the charges buss draws her feet are moving and she is out of position? Not complaining but those are blocking calls against any other player. I don't think we are playing that well compared to the last few games but we are holding on to a decent lead Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

Gotta get that Cahill bobble head haha Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

Stephanie white has landed major talent at vandy as well and can not convert talent to wins..im sensing a pattern here 🤔[emoji23] Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

On the subject of the game however, penn and yeaney really need to start taking better care of the ball. 7 TO for penn tonight. 4 for yeaney Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

You do know we're losing the 2 best, most consistent players on the team, right? We're gaining one really good freshman, a decent post, and a player who is always hurt. Do the math. You also have to figure in at least one or 2 transfers..i think warthen will leave..maybe Johnson maybe wickware Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

Dang...That was stressful Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

Nice 2nd quarter by the Hoosiers it's all tied up at half! Penn on fire behind the arc already has 4 treys Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app

Yeah and part of it was the fact that buss is a very very similar player and miller put a lot of pressure on kids to commit. Jennings had many high offers and wasn't going to be put under pressure like that to commit. My point being he had heightened local interest. And that's probably how he got buss.. I also know the Jennings' and know Whitney wasn't headed here as well, and neither was kia nurse once buss committed. It's more the point that we had top tier talent in the state interested in playing for iu. Was McLaughlin even mildly interested in IU either time she was available?
