Posted 39 minutes ago I love Geno! Incredible coach and incredible leader. Everything one should want to run a program. He will crush you, and then explain that he is unhappy, because his team made mistakes. If you're a UConn fan, it's great. UConn really needs to get out of the Big East--they have pretty much trampled everyone mercilessly. They need to be in the Big 12 or the Big 10. I don't know what the politics were in inviting Rutgers and not UConn. "Fast and Bulbous." -

We already have Nevaeh Caffey, not to mention Maya Makalusky. Caffey can do everything Beckham can do. We need to commit to the development and eventual stardom of the top players we recruit. Was there even room for Beckham at IU? I question that, and she may have questioned it, too. I know some of the top programs like UConn "stockpile" players. UConn has a "survival of the fittest" spectacle going on at guard this year, with 9 players vying for 2, or maybe 3 starting spots. The result will be a number of high school All-Americans sitting on the bench. That is sad. -

(1) For what it's worth, "International names to know for WNBA draft"--lists her name: https://wbasketballblog.com/2023/12/28/international-names-to-know-for-2024-wnba-draft/ FYI: Czech teammate Dominika Paurova had good 1st year at Oregon State, and is now at Kentucky. SO, maybe this girl has some real talent. (2) Fact is that for IU women in 24-25, there are a whole bunch of people who have the potential, but they need to take the next step--that certainly includes Lamendola, Bargesser (can she get a steady 3), Currie-Jelks, Meister. Any or all of them could break out and show "All-Big 10 form". Or not. Maybe you can add Valentyna to that group. (3) Look at what Garzon has accomplished. Did anyone really predict that when she came in as an international? -

Sounds like she wants to "see the world" (get away from home) and have a shot at PT (Rutgers?). However, it's nice when the recruit is not "lowering the list to 6 or 8 or 12, but really just wants to go to IU, like with Maya, Nevaeh, and Faith. -

(2025) - Madison Francis to Mississippi State
mickey one replied to Class of '66 Old Fart's topic in Indiana Women's Basketball
She supposedly has 29 offers. That is insane. How could she make an intelligent and rational choice? When probably the majority of the 29 schools would be perfectly fine, what decides the matter? How can any school (IU included) explain what their program is about, get a fair hearing, and hope for a commitment? Seems like this all creates inflated egos, and many players end up in the transfer portal when things turn out as less than advertised. -

I guess it will be interesting. However, how long until the West Coast teams get tired of flying across the country, and reformulate their own West Coast league? TV revenue is one thing, but not at the cost of sanity. I can't believe how college athletics has completely "sold out" to TV money. What about the "student-athlete" thing? What's next, adding some Big "10" teams in Western Europe, South America, and China? Imagine the TV market! -

Is she going to start? she shoots 38% FG, with 32% from 3; and they have 6 freshmen. 4-5 stars, coming in. Southern Cal is looking like Arizona, ND, South Carolina et al., kind of a merry-go-round, with lots of people coming in and then leaving. It works for South Carolina; it doesn't work for Arizona. -

I wouldn't get too ga ga over Southern Cal just yet. Or UCLA for that matter. They are going to have to deal with a pretty tough Big 10, IU included. -

When we first played against Shay Ciezki 2 years ago, she was dynamic, and I wondered at that time how Penn State got someone that good. To have her come over to IU would be a great development. She can shoot 3's at 42%. That is Scalia's level, and could continue IU's dominance in 3-point shooting. One frustrating thing about the portal this year: if all the underclassmen step up + Faith Wiseman & Sydney Fenn play well (like Mack or Grace Berger their freshman year), then we really don't need anyone. But, based on last year, we don't know if that is going to happen or not.
