    Audi Crooks to Transfer

    These girls also don’t have the same earning potential. It’s changing a little bit, but I was good friends with a multi-time All American in college, and she did not get much post-college. It would have likely been a very good decision for her to go get whatever she could have if that had been...

    Audi Crooks to Transfer

    I said this a week or more ago in the Bill thread, but noting it will be nearly impossible for ISU to get to the final four in WBB, due to lack of parity at the top, there’s literally reason to be mad at someone like Audi or Addy for choosing to either go to one of those teams that actually does...

    NCAA Tournament likely to expand

    I’m guessing they’re going to add another site out to help with those logistics.

    Would not consider that a reputable source.

    Audi Crooks to Transfer

    She’s not worth the money they’re talking about with your strategy…not that it’s a bad one for a winning team. You just won’t see her go into what you’ve laid out. She’s either going to a team built around her or she’s going somewhere she believes can transform her into a WNBA player.

    Audi Crooks to Transfer

    If I were Bill, I think I would have told her to go for it…just try to not have us play you. Given the rest of the roster turnover, I don’t know that he can afford to recruit to build around her for one year anyway.

    Audi Crooks to Transfer

    I don’t think it’s quitting if you finish the season. She didn’t stay as long as she could have, but she didn’t quit. The football team quit…

    Audi Crooks to Transfer

    That’s absolutely absurd…and not at all a balanced take. You can be disappointed by how the season has ended the last few years, but judging his results against 90+% of WBB, he has been successful. He’s been better than Bo Pelini was for Nebraska (who was a known difficult personality), and I...

    Audi Crooks to Transfer

    There is such a thing as adapting to modern ways, but entitlement is real and an issue as well. That said, this is all speculation. People seem to be willing to assume that players that were here for three years all just had enough. I guess that may be true, but are we to believe Bill went...

    Audi Crooks to Transfer

    It feels like everyone wants to blame someone here for WBB not being what they want it to be. It’s not a revenue sport and probably therefore doesn’t deserve more money. I’m still happy the girls get to play on a big stage. If someone has an opportunity to move on and make a bunch of money...

    Audi Crooks to Transfer

    I guess I’m a little confused by all of the negative comments toward CBF here. Maybe he is awful, but again his overall track record suggests he probably deserves to have a statue or his name on something…and Jamie has repeatedly shown a willingness to remove coaches who have outstayed their...

    Bill Fennelly

    That seems like a reasonable take, but I would fully expect things would have looked much different if Addy had been healthy the entire year. ISU would have likely been hosting tournament games… I do think there also has to be some appreciation for the fact that Fennelly is responsible for...

    Bill Fennelly

    Just kind of a counterpoint to a lot of this - has anyone considered that perhaps the university is getting exactly what it wants out of this program? I mentioned this before in another post, but I’ll say it again…the WBB has a pretty good reputation around the country, games are well attended...

    *** Official #23 Tennessee vs #6 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    Nevermind - looks like he said he’s also not interested. I’d probably look at Self then. I think if he’s healthy, it would be good for him to have a change of scenery.
