We might sneak into the Big tourney!

Amen to that.

Yep, no fun allowed!

With these 18 teams now there is sure a wide range in weather and landscape! Nice little mini vacations.

Tks...,That i'm sure is fun for the players especially with the break in winter weather!

I was wondering if we stay on the West Coast thru both games or fly back and forth? I thought I heard that teams, now that the Big has expanded will usually stay in the region if they have 2 games 3 days apart that are near by. If the boys are staying in Calli, where do they practice etc..? Do teams like USC let them come and share gym time and visa-versa? Maybe teams have to rent private gyms? I've always been curious about the details and my son was asking the other day and I honestly don't know?

Well, give her the benefit of the doubt and see what she can pull together in the portal to compliment these incoming freshmen. There is no good time to cut ties from a coach who averaged 20ish wins a year over 12 seasons for a program like ours historically speaking.

True, showed some real fight!

Big 10 wins especially on the West Coast aren’t exactly cake walks..

Maybe we should expect better?

Appearances don’t mean much if you don’t win much…CTM did have some momentum at one time we all agree, but it’s the whole sum of record that is inconsistent and plummeted to atrocious most likely due to certain assistants departures.

Bailey was an animal!

Still have no post presence to go along with injury prone Z. Going to have to strike gold in the portal. Maybe Faith can develop if she gets some playing time and doesn’t transfer. Maybe Jade,? That’s not championship level roster unless some major changes.

It’s certainly not just one season of failure…come on..lol

I would hope this to be the case

My gut feeling is that with the current state of affairs inside IU sports is there has to be some give somewhere and that is likely the womens basketball program. If we lose CTM I feel like we will be moving and assistant up from the bench with a modest raise and a chance to work their chops.

He likes to squash lineman into pancakes..lol

It would be really interesting to know what resources CTM has compared with other Big schools for comparison?

Are we a step up, lateral move or step down from Illinois womens basketball?

I was expecting to see a very helpless player when Wiseman got in the game and was pleasantly surprised. Faith has great size and seems to move well for a big. Looks like shes added some girth as well. She has needed a ton of in game experience but has gotten almost zilch. She will prob transfer out and do well somewhere else.. :(

I don’t think it matters anymore, always going to be the same old set of excuses with this coaching staff

TM won’t play her more than 2 minutes though…

How many times does Beaumont pick her dribble up and get trapped by two players and turn the ball over and never one word from the coaching staff…jeez

No Z tonight

And I’ve tried to be hopeful about the future but cannot. Only feel sorry for the players, especially Shay,..pulling for a miracle tonight!
