yes, it is just somewhat mystifying as to why Coach Moren has not had more success. She coached a bunch of A-listers this past summer on the national team, but none of them chose IU for college (even though a few of them were still on the board). In college athletics, recruiting is destiny, like it or not.

In her early years, she had a very high transfer rate. There was a lot of talk about how difficult it was to play for her. That may still be a factor today. It could also be that going to college in Indiana just doesn't excite people not from Indiana.

By the way, I saw Quinnipiac University take out Harvard last Sunday, 76-53. Harvard played full-court press from the beginning, but Quinnipiac's freshman point guard, Gal Raviv, handled the pressure superbly. Quinnipiac's bigs pretty much neutralized the middle, and Jackie Grisdale hit 7 three's and totaled 33 points. Harvard had no answer for her.

The eventual margin of 23 could have been worse for Harvard. I was probably the only one in the stadium who viewed it as payback.
