Added Clarke to the list


Let me talk myself into this one. Stats aren't eye popping but she made nice improvement between her Freshman and Sophomore seasons. Her last game of the season, with 17 points and 11 rebounds, was a nice way to close. She could be a late bloomer and you can't teach 6'4. We should probably add a second Australian so Harvey has company.

Too bad That Place, Ames' own Australian Pub, is no longer around.

Saint Mary's is in California and she is from AUS, so what will get her to Ames? Big money? Playing time? Lacey,s input? Foster's? :)
 
"Back on"?

When were names on the back of WBB jerseys?
Well crap….yeah it’s been a while if at all.
OK, can he just change it to just put the names on them back. It’s an easy thing and a change when you need one .

Again, I get what he’s trying to do, but those days are pretty much over..
Those days ended with AAU tournaments costing $85 to get in the door for a fifth grade tournament along with NIL cancer.

Maybe the same thing that landed the Aussie from Univ of Washington.

Humorously, I was riffing off Owlcity's That Place Aussie reference. Clark to Ames would not be for money, PT, or Alison, it would be, "how you speak Australian."

She'd have good reason to come to Ames as shown, as you state, by Harvey.
