I was at the game, and the crowd's reaction towards the end of the first half was totally uncalled for. Fish and Buck were clearly moved, and not in a good way, by the "fan" behavior. Apparently the entitled IU basketball fans who think they are helping a program by booing the players have now become football fans and somehow feel this will really improve our team. Stay home and sulk gloom birds. We're second in the BigTen somehow, with the easiest part of our schedule to come. We're beat up, tired and one of only two teams who have played six BigTen games. Cut our team some slack. IN CIG I TRUST!!

She was there but apparently not able to dress or play. She just can't seem to catch a break.

That's interesting. I was just thinking how much more athletic we looked this year when compared to year's past. I guess speed and athleticism are in the eyes of the beholder!

Good for Teri and IU. Building not buying. I like building better. This certainly looks like a good building process! Fans need to be patient, because I think we're a little thin right now, especially in the post. This process may take a while with Azi on the mend. Hopefully her being treated well now will help keep her here in the future. Well done Hoosiers!

UNDRAFTED Shay Ciezki that is. Saw a video of one of Shay's 3s, looked strikingly similar to the way Caitlin Clark delivers a 3. WAY TO GO SHAY!

Nebraska fan forum feels like they got the best of the "trade." They think Noyan will be a better rebounder. I thought she did a commendable job playing center here, a position she really isn't set up all that well to play.

115 to 36. Great learning experience.

Class of 66's feed is a better than the youtube feed on my computer. Not quite sure how he did that.

Why is Rabjohns catching so much grief on the YouTube comments?

Did IU really score 59 points in THE FIRST QUARTER? Or do I not understand what Q1 means? I think next year IU should issue a challenge to all Monroe County High School basketball teams (there are two) and play them in the old Smithville high school gym. It couldn't teach IU any less than this game is.

Next time, just assemble the best high school teams in Monroe County and have IU scrimmage against them in the Smithville gym. This is absolutely ridiculous.

I'm 78. Are you SURE you're older than me? (: Alisa Williams averaged 4.8 points and 3.3 rebounds per game at Iowa State. Granted, it was pretty hard to score with Addy Crooks in the lineup.

I agree Caitlin can be a giant pain. But I also believe she has not been treated well by the WNBA. She's the main reason salaries suddenly took a big jump, players started flying charter, TV exposure exploded, and there was a clear sudden WNBA wide increased attendance the moment Caitlin was drafted. I will not elaborate on my personal feelings as to why she has been treated so poorly by the league.

For old farts like me, "state" in the previous Fort Meyers Tip-Off post is Mississippi State. "GT" is Georgia Tech. Ion is television channel 63 for those of us who still have antennas. In other words, it's FREE!

Nebraska folks say Petrie was a better power forward than center. That's too bad. Ondineme hasn't found a home yet. I think we could use her next year.

Current grade of incoming freshman "straight A." I'm old school, hope we can build rosters that way.

Good get I'd say. Sounds like she will be fun to watch. Every good team has a bulldog.

Another good guard. I'd say we're all set on those! Now about a second string center ! :{

I am not saying we have to get another "starting center." But don't we have to get SOMEBODY to be a decent backup center? I am hoping 6'4" Fenn can play center. I honestly don't know. We're pretty short at the moment. At least I think we are? You all pay way more attention to the incoming freshmen than I do. Are any of them capable of playing center in the Big10?

The Nebraska fans seem to think they got the best deal on this trade. They like Noyan's rebounding. Petrie had a really good game when we played Nebraska. They were really good at the time. Ranked in top 25. By the time they played IU in the tourney, they were a Big10 #12 seed and Petrie did not start. Maybe that's why she's here, who knows? I'm not so sure she will start. We need a second true center I would think.

I vote "b." Never understand big buyouts.

Somebody is going to have to explain to me what Purdue is thinking.

They won four games in the WNIT, so they're not horrible. Overall record was 24-14. Hope Chloe gets to play a LOT. Now, come on somebody, get Faith Wiseman.

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."
