TTT

Kansas fouled 1 to 1.5 seconds to soon in the first 3 fouls.

Maryland 66. NC. 74 Garzon 6 pts. 2 for 11 fgs 0 for 6 3pta. 2 for 4 fts 3 rbs. 1 asst. 2tos. 1 stl. 0 blks. 4 pfs. in 36 mins. I hope everyone is happy whoever sold her this horse$$@)&. She played much better under T. Moren even though Moren challenged her. And it cost IU Ladies a 20 win season. It cost Garzon ANY chance of WNBA…though she may play in another league.

Game not over yet.

Was Shaka Smart that good of a coach or is VCU a really solid basketball tradition?

What do you do with Arek Angui Auburn transfer portal? Is it worth a chance? And does IU Ladies have a chance? IU Ladies should have a chance because she needs playing time and IU Ladies need a big and there is no doubt the coaching would be there. Win Win. 15 seats might just be worth 1 of those seats…unless there’s a difference maker lurking….not sure how she holds up physically? And if it’s for sure 90% she is not going to play it’s a pass.

And the answer is no once things got shaken out.

Might be interesting to see if St Louis has anything for Michigan? Can they keep it close? Respectable? Or will it be a 15 to 20 point loss?

Doesn’t matter take her best one game vs season equals lateral move. She could take her choice of Faith Wiseman or Jade Ondineme spot on the bench and play a little out of necessity and yes that might be all IU Ladies can get. Edessa Noyan showed improvement and had an excellent game vs Oregon (not UCLA) but started to improve the back half of season.

This could be a fool’s gold hire given that he was recruiting for LSU under Kim Mulkey

2025-26 30 gp. 13.2 min. 5.4 pts. 2.6 rebs . 0.7 assts. 0.3 stls. 0.9 blks. 1.7 tos. 57% fgs 25% 3 pt fgs. 82.1%fts. 1.9fouls yes IU Ladies had several of these; would be another lateral move…and could be the quality big addition they end up with/can only get…..while the top echelon of teams get high production stars….thus far the recruit/player IU needed is going to USC.

Indiana football coach just living his best life!

So Okeke goes to USC. If she would have chosen IU I think fans would be ecstatic. However, USC comments though some are happy but many are like fire the coach, JuJu is a ball hog and it won’t work, USC isn’t winning nothing, where does the coach get her money?, coach can’t coach. wondering if it came down to final 4 break down tier 1 Texas and USC and tier 2 Purdue and IU which means though IU made a serious effort like times in the past on high level much needed impact players as in tall/bigs when it gets down to it IU Ladies have no chance. At least she won’t have to listen to her coach publicly say she has to learn to play defense especially if she wants more minutes. LOL. IU Ladies are losing their most hard nosed accomplished player and about 30% of their points per game plus she went after rebounds in shay that will have to be replaced next year.

Nowhere, hoping that she stays healthy is fool’s gold.

Hope that Z stays healthy is fool’s gold.

IU Ladies could have really used her but apparently so could USC. Many times taking a good swing and another miss. IU Ladies have made some excellent hits but still have not quite just got over the hump. Yet.

Both, their leadership and support and Cig and football program coattails…and it worked.

Yes, Curt Cignetti and football program made Dr Whitten and Scott Dolson look good, actually great…even promoted their job security. Lol.

And meanwhile Curt Cignetti and football program….. makes Scott Dolson AD of the year with his lucky football coaching hire….. selected by the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (sophistication in that name)…..This is how Elitists or Elites work. See how great we are!!! And all is good in Btown.

And yes Matt Painter knew what he was doing when he recruited Braden Smith 3 star Westfield High School Indiana Mr. Basketball in 2022. Purdue was the biggest offer though thereafter some other major programs including Indiana started to show interest.

Watching the big ten tournament championship game are two teams: coaches who coached high quality talented players and teams to both, know what they are doing.

Michigan player interview: Honestly, this has been the best time of my life. I have learned so much and I am glad I came to Michigan to play for coach DUSTY. I guess winning does that….It seems coach Dusty doesn’t waste words but is enthusiastic, positive, direct and to the point when addressing the team. Short and simple….from post game video that I have watched.

I am still in a tizzy from the start of the 2025-2026 school year from the fall extension….into winter 2026 IU football undefeated number 1 ranked National Football Championship…. I thought the rest of the school year was cancelled. What’s going on? Where am I?

IU signee Addy Nyemchek named New Jersey Gatorade Player of the Year By Seth TowMarch 13, 2026WOMEN'S BASKETBALL 0 Comments IU women’s basketball signee Addy Nyemchek has been named New Jersey Gatorade Player of the Year. Nyemchek becomes the fourth Gatorade Player of the Year on Indiana’s roster for 2026-27, joining Lenée Beaumont (Illinois, 2023), Maya Makalusky (Indiana, 2025), and Nevaeh Caffey (Missouri, 2025). The No. 28 recruit in the class of 2026 per ESPN, Nyemchek is also the first high school commit in Indiana program history to be selected to the McDonald’s All-American Game. The 6-foot-2 guard led Red Bank Catholic High to a state championship this season with a 30-2 record. Nyemchek, per MaxPreps, averaged 19.8 points, seven rebounds, four assists, 2.9 steals, and 1.4 blocks per game while shooting 48 percent from the field and 42 percent from 3-point range. Nyemchek is one of the headliners of Indiana’s strong incoming freshman class, perhaps the best of Teri Moren’s tenure in Bloomington, going on 13 years next fall. ESPN ranks the Hoosiers’ class No. 8 in the country, with Nyemchek, combo guard GiGi Battle (No. 32), point guard Ashlinn James (No. 64) joining the program; center Zoe Jackson is also part of the class, but she enrolled early and joined IU in January.

Could 2 IU Ladies bigs thus far to transfer portal = Sarah Okeke?. Zania and Noyan and Zoe and Okeke combination could work really well. That’s needed if going to compete at the top.
