Not bad for such a loser, at least according to some folks here. Faith Wiseman had 1 bucket, 2 rebounds, 2 blocks and took up lots of space in the middle. Take a look at her =/- of +1 in 12 minutes of play. Stated another way, when Faith was of the lineup for her 28 minutes, Michigan gained a point a minute. When she was not in the lineup for her 12 minutes, IU gained a point. There may be other reasons for that +/-, but somehow that stat can't be ignored, can it? I was expecting to see a very helpless player when Wiseman got in the game and was pleasantly surprised. Faith has great size and seems to move well for a big. Looks like shes added some girth as well. She has needed a ton of in game experience but has gotten almost zilch. She will prob transfer out and do well somewhere else.. :( Quote
TTT Posted January 30 Posted January 30 Overall, T. Moren post game gave a good assessment of IU Ladies. I expect her to perform and reset through 28-29 season…and be given a contract extension after 27-28 which would mean success has been achieved…..or not (success means competing at the top of the big ten conference….I see Makalusky a big part of that success along with whoever ends up as IU Ladies over the next two years. (Expecting a good story line)…. and recruiting to be in much better shape over the next couple years. Quote

I hope she does get more playing time, and I certainly hope she stays. Edited February 1 by NatHillIV can't 'type' well ronzo4IU 1 Quote

She’s the same slow and non athletic player they have had for years Quote
