IUWBB vs #4 USC - Sunday, 01.19.25 @ Noon on NBC-TV
Claxdj01 replied to Class of '66 Old Fart's topic in Indiana Women's Basketball
Amazing effort again. Would have been better to run out the clock at the end of the third up one rather than leave a few precious seconds to allow that Watkins buzzer 3. Changed the momentum. Was really glad to see striplin in the starting lineup. Move should have been made to start the year. Gave Watkins all she wanted to handle. Refs not very good, but better than the last few home games, which isn’t saying a lot. Parish and yardens legs seem to fail them at the end of games start becoming short on good looks. Really wish we would utilize Shay more. She barely shoots 3s anymore and in the past was among big ten leaders in volume and percentage. I think she can be a poor man’s version of Hidalgo but isn’t really given the chance. If we played like this every game we wouldn’t lose many. -

I believe Iowa was 15/30 from the free throw line or something and lost by 2 and Nebraska is 14-4. The big ten is very deep this year. Outside of a very few I think everyone is going to have their share of conference losses. -

Thought when they get it within 4 they were going to get it done. This was a trap game after a big road win and usc on the horizon. Zero favors with whistles and sitting from row 3 many bad calls. A poor first 15 minutes were too much to overcome. I like many would like to see striplin start. And it’s too bad the Kokomo native Bostic is at Illinois. I expect the usc game to be closer than people think. -

If it was the Stanford last year that we got blitzed by 30 or whatever I disagree. 100%. To me this was a little like that South Carolina sweet 16 game. We kept it close and chipped. But the refs today were a lot worse today and we didn’t shoot near as well. The media for women’s basketball is bad, and Indiana has had a strong horse to toke up some hype and still don’t it on the media side of it. Wouldn’t be very hard to have a few students in the curriculum try to create an online prescience with articles and things like that maybe it would help with recruiting.

Much more effort than vs. Unc. Officiating is perhaps some of the worst I’ve seen and I’ve seen a lot of women’s ball so that says a lot. The ucla big can’t shoot free throws and she doesn’t guard past the free throw line. Need to go 5 guard lineup and take advantage of the easy top of the key looks and then employ hack a Shaq on the other end

Striplin is better than Meister. She’s stronger, more athletic, more skilled. Why doesn’t she start, and also why has there not been one point this year where Striplin and meister play at the same time? The rotation does not need to be so rigid. Why don’t any of the newcomers ever get a chance to touch the floor? I can’t imagine wiseman being ranked 93 being so bad she can’t crack a lineup over sandvik who doesn’t even attract a defender within 15 feet. Currie-Jenks score 16 a game as freshman at a mid major, we’ve had trouble with mid majors, can’t get 10 seconds of playing time. Lemondola looks the part and is completely terrified of making a decision when she gets the ball and is as prone to tossing up an air ball or turnover as she is making a play. -

How open does meister need to be they aren’t within 5 feet of her from 18 feet out. She can make that. -

The other bench players cannot possibly be worse than sandvik. 100% invisible offensively it’s like 4 on 5. Striplin making some buckets today. Actually doing decent job of breaking the press as well -

Results excluded, this is the most talented overall Indiana team in a very long time. The coaching holds it back. They can spend 2 minutes looking like a top 10 contender and the next 2 as confused as an Amish electrician. Goes back to coaching. If he can get the right players on the floor they will be able to at least make the tournament. This will be unpopular here but please send Galloway down the road. He’s in his 19th year, all he mostly does is throw it away. The opposing team openly said they weren’t going to guard him if he had the ball, he did make a few shots but that’s rare going into to his 20th season that he can make anything. goode should start, ballo shouldn’t be bringing the ball up, and a lot of the defensive trouble happened when they drew ballo beyond free throw line extended and he should never be there. -

You’re correct. I’ve watched and enjoyed this team for years and have bought season tickets but I’d be lying if I didn’t think the squad they had with Berger Holmes gulbe cardano Hillary should have done much more. The year they had Holmes and Berger with Scalia who came off the bench and got beat in the 2nd round at home by Miami. Last year they did battle but still could never handle a press. Moren made the program relevant but can’t recruit or don’t give those she does bring in the chances to play and grow. We’ve moved past her, it’s time to go the route of the football program and bring in a coach. Watching this team this year it just shows me that we’ve left a lot on the table the past years because there isn’t any coaching -

With the way she recruits we are in trouble. It’s extremely disappointing I’ve followed this team went to games bought all the streaming things. She cannot recruit at all. Or refuses to, and her scheme is awful. She got lucky with a few players. -

Horrible coaching. Essentially missing one player from last year, maybe 2 I guess but Scalia went missing many times over her stay there. The offense and scheme is PUTRID. Watching this makes you wonder how good they really could have been with Grace and Mack
