Random IUWBB Recruiting

IU Ladies need 2 transfer portal players that will have ability to be involved.  Already have a player who does not require minutes…don’t need another one…with the guard/forward being first priority.  Chloe Moore-McNeil is a very versatile player that can be utilized in a variety of ways and not just at point all the time…very interchangeable with different players on court. Donarski has good scoring ability.

Realistically we don't have the mins for 2 in the rotation. 1 rotational guard and a 3rd string big are really all we have room for.

Yes they can figure out a formula…plus account for dents and dings putting it mildly in a long season. 
Also this would kind of surprise me…but would IU MBA program have any significance to Van Lith decision?

No, there isn't a formula or need to figure it out. Find a Geary or a Kiandra Browne, 3rd string C with experience. 

Meister is back up 5 and she isn't sharing mins with anyone in that role, she is too good, and for replacing an AA there is basically no drop-off in our play when she's in vs. Holmes. Parrish/Garzon/Meister play the 4 as a group next season. 

I guess Scalia is willing to continue to accept a lesser role if we are adding on the perimeter. That says a lot about her.

Scalia will have a bigger role and be pretty improved along with Parrish.

If IU Ladies are going to be at the top of conference and be a final 4 contender with some high level confidence with some swagger…IU Ladies cannot be idle…I think they will continue to charge North with transfer portal (2 impact players)

She will not have a bigger role if we add one of the two girls on the perimeter you've mentioned. 

Parrish avged like 13p 7r last year and shot 40% or close to it from 3 in the conference. She's a stud.

Parrish has a very legitimate chance to be one of the very best players in the country….if the refs quit picking on her.  (sometimes aggressive good plays cause fouls but Parrish gets called for more than her share of fouls by bad calls from refs).  It’s great to see Parrish talent being so much more utilized at IU Ladies basketball program.  She seems very happy and likewise T. Moren and staff.

And yes IU Ladies basketball is going to get a couple impactful players from the transfer portal.

If every transfer is considered impactful, then sure. Yes we will get mutliple "impactful" transfers. They just won't all be seeing the court regularly.

Personally I'd like to see IU get Hailey Van Lith, but we won't be the only ones.

That’s the #1 hope.  But Lexi Donarski Was on campus and being heavily recruited. 
 

doubt we take more than 2.  Only 1 starter spot likely available.

That is interesting to hear about Lexi Donarski being on campus! I did see Mckenzie is following her on Instagram, but couldn’t find any other information regarding that news. How is it known that she was on campus?

[TTT]

There will be 6 starters meaning equal minutes except for Mac will get the over in minutes but she will want to keep knee good (so that may vary a little depending on situations)….Lilly will get playing time and if another tall good player comes in will also play maybe with Mac or Lilly at times….depending on who.

Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year. Pretty excellent. 

Caitlin Clark's games when guarded by Lexi Donarski:

2022:

• 7-20 fg, 1-2 ft, 5 TOs

2021:

• 10-26 fg, 2-2 ft, 6 TOs

2020:

• 11-23 fg, 7-8 ft, 7 TOs

Maybe some star level high ability girls like T. Moren (and staff)…T. Moren (and staff) are pretty likable…maybe they are looking for that IU Ladies family character in the program.
