Waiting on what T. Moren and staff are able to acquire in transfer portal (couple impact high level players needed) is kinda like waiting to open a couple of presents…..not expecting 4 open scholarships available to be used…but there is a need for a couple including a physical inside taller player that is always needed, plus mid range and inside outside (Karlen/Marquette) type player. I expect Bargesser to improve her shooting quite a bit where she’s a dependable shooter.

I think there could be something to Liza Karlen /Marquette for IU Ladies…..St Paul Minnesota. Stillwater connection

IU Ladies with Faith and Sidney coming in = 11 . Ladies basketball can carry a 15 roster. That would mean 4 scholarships available including Currie Jelks on roster.

Tennessee looking for a new Ladies basketball coach. Tennessee Ladies Vols blog all over the place. Even mentioned Jacks/Syracuse who has won at Buffalo and Syracuse but not at IU. AD probably already has replacement in mind even though not sure about search. IU has an excellent distinguished thing going and make sure T. Moren is well cared for. During March Madness I noticed that several teams in elite 8 have around a decade between appearances.

Thanks for clarifying. She could add depth not as a starter (at least initially) that could have some good impact and increase shooting % in IU Ladies system.

It would be excellent. Lior is an experienced player 41% 3 point shooter. 25 th nationally. She has been around Villanova and Oklahoma State. It would just really be a positive for Garzon sisters and IU Ladies basketball program. Lior has some pretty good accolades herself.

Lior Garzon/ Oklahoma State plans to enters transfer portal per T.G.. Why not?

Doubt it. Because none of them would have been as good under Woodson. It’s coaching players/team…it’s just not there not on NBA level nor college level. (I know what you mean though)

If Woodman gets tired 1. Does he just give all the NIL money to one transfer player? Or 2. Does he say the heck with it, and just split it among the returning players? Then, man if we just had enough NIL money.

First half vs Colorado Caitlin Clark has pushed off two times on offense to drive once and create separation once for no calls.

Not 7” lol. But your close 6’9” 205lbs… so yes probably close enough.

How long and who gets the first 6’10, 6’11” and 7’ female basketball player.

My prediction for 23-24 was a middle of pack finish (between 6 and ten). A win or two in big ten tournament and a win or two in march madness. Well, my prediction was overly optimistic. So, for 24-25 I make the same prediction. If that happens it would increase percentage that Woodsman continues as coach based on improvement.

Dawn Staley said she let SC play and was trying to slow them down a little from the bench because she would need time outs late in the game.

At 6’7” Cardoso is usually pretty poised and a clean player overall. She did push Johnson LSU for a one game suspension.

Hung with Carolina on the boards 30 to 32 and out scored Carolina 43 to 30 in second half after being down by 22. Hats off to IU Ladies Basketball and Thanks for another great season.

Difference was a 3 ball or two and a ft or two.

If IU can get the lead they will win.

Which number one seed is going to lose? Not often all 4 number one seeds make final 4?

SC 3 balls early in game really gave them a boost.

Mack shooting 3 ball are things you try to do when you are a generous 15 point underdog to losen things up. IU Ladies probably practiced it a few times as part of game plan. wish everyone could play with Sid’s confidence and mind set. When healthy it’s elite.

And SC can shoot the 3 ball

IU Ladies are doing their best at whatever % 100 or so. Zero margin for error. South Carolina is cruising along pretty much doing what they want at 60 or 70% and actually could even go into higher % gears if needed. To much difference in high talent physicality.

And in that 44% offensive plays were in rhythm/team connection.

It really doesn’t matter if a player shoots a high 3 ball percentage unless it is done in the rhythm of a smooth passing and movement offense. A 45% 3 ball shooter can become a 30 or below % shooter unless everything flows well.
