This sucks. That’s all I’ve got

Ah the sun will come out tomorrow. not sure where yardens going, but if she wants a championship she’s going to be in the role she was her freshman year here as purely a role player. Kind of a system player. Tall but too weak and scrawny to really be a post player, and too slow, gangly to play the other positions. Has some tricky moves that awe you sometimes, good with her hands, but her feet do not do her any favors. Overall great at spot up from 3 but if you want to get down to it her shooting form is god awful and has a really slow release there too. Can do some cool short fadeaways sometimes.

Anyone claiming Yarden's shooting form is "God awful" should be forced to include a clip of themself shooting a three pointer in a college game.

lol oh stop it. If you watch her shooting form and think that’s something that’s good, then to quote Bobby, you just don’t know basketball. It goes in. But if that’s a pure looking shot I must be Ray Charles.

IU Record setting 3-point scorer, clearly a major part of what we thought was the returning core. Yes, the sun will come up tomorrow, and yes she’s a big loss leaving a major missing piece. And a shame, but today’s portal world changed the way we used to follow our teams’ players.

It’s a damn shame. But if they want to bolt however they see fit, I’ll criticize. I didn’t need to buy season tickets only knowing I could attend half of the games, nor did I need to go to many second hand last few years at twice the price. Yarden was a day one starter, did a lot of cool stuff for us. Also turned it over a crap ton, disappeared a lot, she’s still not even a Scalia skill level, who was a portal pick up. I’d say she’s not a Parrish talent, but she was kind of a shelf this year of herself. Injuries, something. Iu has no reporting and moren wont say anything. If you want to get yarden an open 3 it has a good chance to go in. If the defense decides to guard her it might be a turn over or air ball 3. Truly yardens best year was her freshman year when Mack and the gang gave her the open looks

This coming year will be interesting, because it will be a completely new look. Last year was sort of "more of the same", but at a lower level than the year before.

Depending on the portal, we can be "average", "good", or "really good"--but at least it will be different. And we can also see some new players develop.
