Makes sense. But then she’s just a liability in defense. I saw a play where the ball went to post. CC was in perfect position to slide over and double team. Instead she stood still, and another Iowa player from the key tried to slide down to help. The double team was late, leading to an easy Nebby basket.
It's normal, they basically play man to man with the exception of CC who mostly hovers around the FT line and picks up someone on a switch or drive but usually won't follow them into the paint. It's 1 area I'm surprised teams don't run offense right at her and force her to commit as it's an obvious strategy to keep her out of foul trouble. Allows her to go after rebounds and steals too not having a 1 on 1 defensive assignment.
Correct. It allows her to be lazy on defense and pad stats simultaneously. Looks really cool in the stat column!
You and hundreds of millions of others, thankfully.
We also know we can ignore local media for the next week, as well. Not that I listen much anyway but now I will definitely avoid it.
If the hoks beat Illinois it will be an even bigger slobberfest.
Well if you ever do, I’m sure you’ll be able to get daily updates on KXnO from Murph.
Our women won’t get mentioned at all. I’ve seen it happen all season.
