Austin will get hired somewhere. Butler is simply in the wrong conference.

When Virginia fired her Coach (Amaka Agugua-Hamilton, who was a good assistant coach here under Coach Jack), Kymora Johnsonentered the portal. "Johnson was named an All-America Honorable Mention by the Women’s Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA), the association announced Thursday (April 2). Johnson averaged 22 points, 5.7 assists and 6.2 rebounds in four NCAA tournament games to guide Virginia to its first Sweet Sixteen appearance in 26 years as Virginia became the first team in history to reach the Sweet Sixteen after playing in the First Four. For the season, Johnson was one of three players in NCAA Division I to average at least 19 points and 5.5 assists along with Olivia Miles (TCU) and Liv McGill (Florida). Her 19.5 points per game led the team and ranked second in the ACC. She paced the Cavaliers in 24 games this season including 12 against ACC opponents. She set a single-game program record with 10 three-pointers against Winthrop and went on to set the program’s single-season (103) and career (231) 3-point records as well. Her 41 points against Winthrop also marked the second-highest single-game total in program history and her career total of 1,725 points ranks ninth in program history."

"Coach Mox" was an assistant along with Katie Abram-Henderson under Coach Jack here at IU. All three went on to have great success. Katie got the axe after after Georgia finished 22-10 this season, with an 82-73 overtime loss to Virginia in the first round of the NCAA tournament. Mox got into the sweet 16 last year and was fired this year. Coach Jack made the sweet 16 just a while back at Syracuse and hasn't been fired since getting canned here at IU. I simply don't understand the hair trigger used by today's athletic directors to fire good coaches. Katie and Mox are GOOD coaches. Coach Jack found her footing after leaving here.

I don't quite understand this one. Alisa started 2 games, 11.9 minutes per game, 4.8 points per game, 3.3 rebounds per game, .6 assists and .6 turnovers per game. 53.9 field goal percentage, no 3s made all season. We lost 2 good starters of our returning 4 to the portal. Hopefully the fantastic freshmen recruits and a few really good transfers can get us back in the hunt. For sure need Z to come back healthy.

WAY too many NCAA basketball players think they are undervalued at their current schools. About half of the players in the portal will NOT land elsewhere. Agents, family, and friends don't do the players any favors when they badmouth their current situation. Portal isn't open and kids already know their next school. Unbelievable.

I am rapidly losing interest and hope for women's college basketball in general, and IU in particular. I heard Caffey on a radio show. She was either lying through her teeth then, a sharp agent has gotten a hold of her lately, or her so-called friends have convinced her now she can do better somewhere else. On another note, Lilly Meister and Kansas just lost in the semi-final of the WBIT. Lilly had 12 points and 9 rebounds. But I suspect Lilly had fun playing for Kansas this year.

I am a bit of a pessimist by nature, but I think Edessa's leaving may be a big deal for IU. Z may or may not ever be healthy, and we have noq lost all 3 bigs who played this year. I love Maya, but center is just not her position. Somebody please explain to me why I'm wrong. I would love to be ! ps. this transfer stuff is getting very old

What? Teri has 12. "Teri Moren has won 12 NCAA Tournament games as the head coach of the Indiana University women's basketball program as of March 2026" Maybe I'm missing something? I did miss something It was written on March 22, 2019!!!!

I agree. She can PLAY. But I'm not sure point is our problem. We only have one big returning, and she's injury prone. Hopefully we can find some relief there. I don't follow recruits like you all do, so hopefully we will somehow have a big girl with potential coming in.

Join the club. Now where did I leave my glasses ?

I was there! Seemed to me that this was an even smaller than usual crowd for a Big10 tournament opening round. Some guy gave me a ticket. It was really high up so I couldn't tell for sure, but I didn't think the IU fanbase was very big either. BUT, I was super impressed with our comeback. Let's be honest, very few of us thought we had a chance going into the second half. Fortunately, the lady Hoosiers didn't think like all of us. This was a VERY impressive victory, especially considering we have probably the shortest bench in the Big10. We got exactly TWO points outside of the starting five. Will be very hard to handle OSU, especially with our lack of dept. But who thought we could beat Nebraska heading into the second half?

With an 0-10 start in the BigTen, who would have thought it even possible? Soft schedule at the end had something to do with it, but it's been an a while since an IU women's team took the floor and destroyed a Big10 opponent like they did yesterday. What a great game plan, and what great execution by the team. I was extremely happy with the IU crowd. They were really into it.

I went to the game. Crowd wasn't nearly big enough to suit me, but the enthusiasm today was TOP NOTCH!. Felt like there were about twice as many people yelling loudly as compared to what my eyes saw. Outstanding way to finish the regular season, now let's go far in the tournament (maybe TWO tournaments!)

27-13 quarter pretty well took care of it! What an absolutely CRAZY game!

I attended the game, and the game was without question the worst officiating job I have seen in quite some time. Shay was absolutely mugged time and time again. It was WWE out there. The "and one" fiasco was a complete mess. Pretty sure Jeremy Grey said "and one," the girl then missed her and one, Ducks get the rebound, and the refs suddenly stopped the play? Did they think it was a two shot foul? What did the TV announcers have to say about it? Was crazy at the game. IU women had a great game in my opinion. Missed several excellent opportunities to quit. Shay willed us to victory, and Beau made a HUGE 3 that really sealed the deal in my mind. And the out of bounds "defense" by Oregon was without question the worst handling of an inbounding play I have ever seen. I could have made that layup! :) Anyway, onward and upward! Would be difficult to lose our way out of the big10 tournament, and we should be eligible for the WNIT. Which I look forward to.
