Take it with a whole salt shaker and swallow all the salt. Nothing of the sort happened. She has had zero issues at IU. 

It was something done to her, nothing she did

Transfer portal, NIL (and outrageous negotiated coaching salaries on the men’s side that started all this several years ago)for several years now ….feels like it’s a month of like living in a Rubber room. 
March Madness Tournaments along with NITs were enough to deal with.

@Trish you keeping an eye out for any IU women entering the portal today or coming days? I'm hearing it could be more than one.

Keep an eye on their post players. Garzon as well.

Calling Pam Whitten.  Where are you?  Take care of your beloved IU Ladies basketball program.

Well then that certainly would not be a reason to leave then or the coaching staff wanting her to leave. However, like I said I would take with very serious grain of salt.

I know I've tried to give a fair warning. I heard the staff is scrambling because they weren't prepared for so many to talk about entering. I think they have pulled together enough to up the offer to Garzon to be competitive with others.

I heard about the incident because of the people it involved and several others on here did as well. I was asked not to speak about specifics, and I will keep to that. But a lot of players were not happy with how the administration handled it.

When high level somewhat elite players (IU has a couple).  Those couple players may want to play with a team of other high level elite players.  Then it becomes more issues than just NIL.

Thin recruiting for whatever reason catches up.  Elite recruits have to want to come….To much emphasis placed on losing a couple elite players in successive years rather than having elite players to ready to replace them.

Yeah, my wording was poor.  Nothing she did.  Supposedly done towards her.   I know the team and University has always supported very well.

This I think was mutual as I think they want Faith to be main backup to take the role primary as a junior and need a starter level player in portal with Lilly caught in between.

I don't get the feeling anyone else is leaving outside of maybe someone near end of bench but we will see. Certainly would be super surprised to see Yarden leave based on everything I have heard.

Jules and Lily were not a surprise and I think would be mutual. Outside of Shay, Yarden, Lenee, and maybe Lex, not sure there is anyone else the coach would scramble to keep. Could certainly see others out but it would surprise no one if they left and certainly not indictment on program.

Lilly Meister makes a lot of sense. It seems it would be mutual because after playing behind Holmes she was given a pretty big opportunity all the way to Christmas break.

Yes and she definitely did not carpe diem with the role she was given and its why team struggled for so long. A starting level big ten center to spring shooters is a must with Moren's offense and the fact they worked around not having one shows what an elite coach is. Strip did admirably but her ceiling is a backup not a starter and that is what she was brought in for.

Haven’t seen lily to portal anywhere yet?

[TTT 1,294]

And the last post game T. Moren without being too specific actually did address player and team needs for next year.  Without mentioning any names because everyone can figure the names out but as long as a nucleus of 5, 6, or 7 current players stay plus the two incoming freshman….then some ( not hopefully high level) but really high level players from transfer portal the IU Ladies will be in business for 2025-2026.

Dr.  Pam Whitten IU Ladies need NIL money….use your networking skills.
