**** WBB: Gameday Thread - #8 Iowa State vs #9 Syracuse - 4:30 pm ESPN2 ****

[jspeels]

Again, what the heck was that inbound play, thro to Audi and two players running frantically in a circle. That’s not a play! Screen anyone? Anyone?

 

[loyalsons4evertrue]

Most talent we have ever had probably. One of the faces of the game for 3 years and not even a sweet 16 to show for it.

We do have talent for sure but we also have a few players who should not be playing DI high major basketball.

A single ncaa tournament win in 3 years

 

[ClonerJams]

Appreciate everything Bill has done for the program over the years, but some fresh blood leading the program might not be a bad thing.

A single ncaa tournament win in 3 years

And that was when most of the team were freshmen.

 

[ISUCubswin]

Failure of a season.

 

[ZorkClone]

I’m saying it. Fire Bill

 

[Tpups21]

At least they can't get blown out by UConn now.

 

[DFWClone]

Can’t wait to light more NIL money (that could be spent on meaningful sports) on fire next season to keep this dumpster fire going.

 

[Challenger06]

I am convinced the score would be in our favor if dumbass Bill would’ve called a TO during that big run by Syracuse in the 2nd quarter. Wtf was he trying to prove? It’s coaching 101.

Bill has talked about this. He feels calling TO’s during an opponent’s run gives the other team more satisfaction and confidence, and makes it appear ISU is flustered.

Wow I hadn’t heard that. What a dumb thing to say.

I'd be shocked if Audi transfers.

I’d be shocked if she doesn’t if someone offers her lots more money than what we do. She is not making money in WNBA.

 

[cyclonespiker33]

The coaching staff needs to do some serious self-reflection on why they aren't able to have more success with the amount of talent on this team. I eagerly await the optimistic ratings lol.

This is a dumb take

I think this is sarcasm, but not sure. If not, then omg we are ******.

This reminds of Prohm calling TO after we would go on a run.

They appear that way when they are that way

 

[legi]

We need to recruit 21 year old freshman with pro experience for next year please.

 

[BigJCy]

We just going to run it back next year with no significant changes?

IF this coaching staff is back (I suspect they get 1 more year) then I think there will be a couple players that leave that the staff would want back and then there will also be a few that leave that they don't want back.

I know Audi probably really like being at Iowa State but if I'm her I take a serious look to see what offers are out there for her final season. Does she want a professional career? If so, may be time for a change to see if someone can get her game/fitness level/agility to another level.

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

Yep.....wouldn't blame Hare for transferring.....she gets zero looks. And it's no wonder she struggles to shoot when she actually does get a touch because it's so rare she's not even expecting it

I feel so bad for her. She's taking it hard. Want give her a virtual hug.

 

[Tpups21]

No other program would make her the offensive focal point like ISU does.
