Yes, IU football success means basketball can wait.

That’s a couple examples. Need bigger sample size. However, overall Iowa just was a unique tradition with two final fours, and tons of C.C. and program publicity. Clark was getting full gyms everywhere. Example: Ohio State with McGuff had approximately 7, 800 fans in attendance at there season opener. They had success over the years been ranked, won big etc. little different time line

Sidenote: I am hardly ever interested in any professional football or basketball. However, others live in that area. Not sure what impact that may have for example on some of the college athletic programs attendance especially without winning on a high/elite level. Colts, Pacers, Fever and in this case IU football and basketball programs if they don’t win at a very high level though football always had attendance issues because they were often a losing program.

Depends on how you define sustainability and traditionally elite. There have been several programs not just one or two others. Not exactly at the same time but recent years IU Ladies success is comparable to other programs and sometimes even better in attendance and season ticket holders regarding Ladies basketball.

Specifically IU women basketball attendance is relatively to it’s success. It has some and briefly for 2 or 3 or 4 years at a high level. Real briefly at elite level. There are several schools in this category….However, a sustained tradition category is still in the process of still trying to be established. It’s not sustained and established. So attendance is favorably comparable to other schools in this category. The continually sold out or near sold out attendance programs are the elites that are elite year after year and has sustained tradition . Included is Iowa because of C.C.

Or if not 23 or 24 wins….9 losses or less. And yes no point to prove… that is my attitude. Hot very interested when playing and winning at high level, to warm always interested when not playing and winning at high level never cold until last few years in men’s basketball because of product. This is me in my 70s. Always pretty avid at a younger age win or lose.

20 win seasons are out dated 61% wins when you play 33 games (that’s only a 20 win and 13 loss season/ yes some to good to best teams. Needs to be updated to 23 or 24 wins.

Bargesser is at a good level for her. She did make 11 of 16 inside the 3 point line. I agree moderate success vs low level competition. Currently, IU Ladies are having strong success vs low level competition. I look at December 6 as a benchmark measuring stick to see where IU Ladies are at. At eleven games in there are six games that really don’t say hardly anything. (They do give repetitions and lots of practice). However, Florida State November, Butler, Gonzaga, Florida Gulf Coast, Gonzaga, and Illinois are the first measuring stick 25-26 for expectations for rest of big ten season and beyond……11-0 vs if any losses.

Bargesser scored 22 vs Weber State 11 of 20 fg (0 of 4 3 pointers), 0 for 1 fts, 4 defensive rebounds, 3 assists, 4 turnovers, 3 steals, 2 blocks in 35 minutes. And 1foul.

Month of November games that will say something about IU Ladies basketball. A couple warm up games exhibition and Lipscomb plus 5 more practice preseason games. Plus a game with Illinois December 6. Florida State November 16 Butler November 19 Florida Gulf Coast November 25 Gonzaga November 28 IU Ladies should be 11-0 excluding exhibition game. However, exhibition and Lipscomb games say hardly anything about IU Ladies success for this season. Up through December 6 will say something about expectations 25-26.

T. Moren referred to Nevaeh Caffey with toughness and relentlessness who gets it of Nevaeh Caffey beyond her years not a freshman with a deceptive baby face….don’t be fooled.

It’s a new way of football life to look at IU point spreads. Each week IU is favored by approximately 2 to 4 tds…..It’s just flipped over from what the past once was traditionally. Often IU covers the spread. (Working way out of most college football losses category).

Fenn out for season. Another knee surgery

Lipscomb returns 35% scoring and half of that is from a single player Molly Herd. Freshman and couple transfers and new faces per A.R.

Does that make you overly obsessed with my opinion?

Indiana State goes to South Dakota and upset the 5th ranked Jack Rabbits 24-12….so if that can happen IU to beware of Penn State, Wisky, and Purdue….Which IU focus has prevented that from happening to them thus far.

Former Hoosiers Maryland. 80 vs Loyola MD 26 Garzon 3 points on 1 of 5 threes 20%, 3 RBs, 6 Assists, 2 steals, 6 turnovers, 1 foul….Garzon just having a blast. Karma Lol In this game and exhibition game conclusion: T. Moren was one heck of a coach that made and was the best college coach that Garzon could ever hope to have. South Carolina vs Grand Canyon LaMendola 2 points on 1 for 5, 2 RBs, 2 turnovers, 2 Assists, 5 fouls….so cute typical LaMendola.

Take the Over on this one. Cig is not playing a head coach vs a hungry Penn State team so IU should cover the spread. IU. 41 Penn State 17

Chloe Kitts South Carolina out for season ACL. IU Ladies has handled this level of loss best they could but never had or has depth to cover these kinds of losses.

Did IU mascot make appearance?

IU before “I Win. Google Me.” use to have to play a near perfect game to beat a mid major. Not anymore.

Yep.

Gonna call this one.

9-0

Rough around the edges hobbling with some dents and dings not looking too good but winning solidly. Should be roughly a 41-44 to 10 win. IU is in the process of joining elite teams looking not to good but still winning big.
