that is unfortunate, Braun has game.

When Syd is ready to play, she will be limited in her playing time as she gets back in shape. Hope for a fully ready Syd for Iowa.

Now over to the end of the OSU PU game

Nice!

bit more on Indy Star Injured Indiana starting guard Sydney Parrish out indefinitely (indystar.com) "Moren offered a brief update on Parrish's status on Friday morning. "She's out indefinitely, and her status is just going to be updated game-to-game," Moren said. "She's in great hands. We'll try to get back as quickly, but as safely as we can. That's where it's at.""

She has only played three years counting the current year so yes, looks like two years. She is impressive completing her undergrad in three years.

Ivy league doesn't allow for a fifth year so they move on if they want to keep playing.

Reviving an old thread as I came across this current (1/24/24) article on Ali. One-time IU star Patberg embracing new role coaching for the Hoosiers - Seymour Tribune (tribtown.com)

Not the choice I expected either.

We need the bench to develop and that starts through positive play. It may not always be scoring but solid execution on offense and defense are important. for the most part, the bench as done a good job filling in for one of the starters. We tend to struggle more with offensive flow when two or more are on the court together. That said, CTM has used the bench more this year early on then the past few.

Lexi not giving us much. Rather see Mack and Lilly on court together.

Glad I am not the only one that thought that

Giving up 29 to is painful. Better right the ship now.

We struggle on the road

OSU 100 Iowa 92 final

OT at OSU/ Iowa

Well, one thing you can say about this board is that we are consistent year in and year out :)

I expect a step back next year as the conference is only getting stronger with the addition of the Pac-12 programs coming into the B1G and the growth of the middle B1G teams. Non-conference will get us wins but the conference play, I can see us middle of the pack without some portal pickups. On to some of your items above: 4) Garzon coming back will be critical to next year. If she does not come back, then it will be even rougher. 5) Wisne and Mack have been pretty close. Not sure what her career plans are but it may be hard to come back when your bud has moved on. 6) I would like to think Currie-Jelks can help next year but really have no idea what is going on with her this year or seen enough to get an idea. She performed well at the mid-level, but I wonder if she has the strength needed for to top-level. We will see if the lifting program works. 7) Lily could get us 10-14 a game next year and should be decent on the boards. She has gotten stronger but not sure how well she can hang with the true centers. Curious how she will perform if she is the focus of doubles/collapses. When teams do face her this year, they typically do not pack the paint on her. 8) I agree that Lexi does not appear to be a scoring threat. I see Lexi in the traditional PG. Facilitate the offense and play tough nose defense. 9) Lenee and Jules can be solid role players but as of right now, I am not seeing them being at the Sydney/CTM level of play. Growth can occur over the summer so one can hope. 10) Not sure who we would lose to the portal other than Currie-Jelks. I do not see Sandvik going anywhere unless she heads home. Bonus) I do feel that we need to hit the portal this year and it is probably the best time to hit it if we want a chance to bring in some elite players. There will be lots of minutes to offer up with Mack and Sara graduating.

Another poor start

True

That was a quick 0.3

Our bench not giving us much so far tonight
