I like the national team experience, that she seems to have a quick release and looks for outlet passes, good positioning for layups and floor understanding -- but she looks like she will need to get a lot stronger, get in the weight room and running, get ready to bang and run in the B1G. Get her conditioning going over the summer, looking forward to seeing how she plays as an experienced foreign frosh coming in. Also, she has my daughter's name, so she rocks.

Ballo has been balling, and bringing energy and anger (well deserved) to the floor game in and game out for some time now. If CMW knew how to run a 1-true big offense with outside shooting we'd be a good team looking at a good tourney run with Ballo anchoring the inside game, but CMW doesn't, so Ballo is stuck leaving his heart on the floor only to have CMW leave his effort wasted. Run an actual modern offense for him, he deserves it.

No.

Cheese-head-annoying-Wisc - 83 IU's 2FG vs 3-Pt offense - 72

Love the Lucy-Charlie Brown-football reference, so true lol

IU has the money / NIL, the facilities, the conference, the recruiting base, the platform- old blue blood image lurking beneath, the exposure, the ongoing elite development of several other of our sports programs (football, women’s bball, baseball, always soccer), and at least an existing core of good players. We absolutely have the ability to bring in one of the really good coaches out there. No more bad hires. Time to bring in that proven winning, program developing, recruiting, still relatively young, modern bball running coach. I’m an optimist. I think it’s finally going to happen at the end of this season.

So who do people think are currently actually in play behind the scenes. I’d bet it’s no one mentioned so far.

Well real nice games by Bako and Gallo anyway

Lol the entire conference would celebrate an IU win for this very reason

This is absolutely fantastic

It’s bad enough to post in a PU beat down thread about to happen, but then I get an AARP ad???!!!! Lol

PU - 83 IU - 69 consolation - 1 game closer to the end of the Woodson era

One day, I will log on and the thread title will be: FIRED Coach Woodson Thread (please)

This is one of only two concerns I have with Moren (the other is not enough focus/results in recruiting athletes and size). In this one area she’s kinda like Woodson, veteran focused. Star frosh can be keys to a team, if you want top frosh talent to come to IU (and you should) you have to show you’ll play and develop them. Moren is an outstanding coach, but she needs to improve here

Lets go!

Is it too early to start drinking?

But of course he is! Predictable things: death, taxes, and Woodson running 2 bigs….

IU - 75 MD - 71 because, F it, time to man up and play for the W at home

Does he often leave his feet before knowing where he's going? :)

Maybe their worst game so far. Just bad game all around. Hoping they make the tourney but it’s going to require a return to better play. Maybe just a rebuilding year

That’s too bad, that team with Coverdale et al was a lot of fun to watch

Largely agree but feel IU women's team needs to upgrade its size and athleticism generally. They've been at a size and athleticism disadvantage in a few games now.

Well, except for a certain coach on the Men's bball team... :)

What happens if you give the best golf cart driver the HC gig? Oh wait, never mind
