    Fan Boundaries with Student Athletes

    When I was first married, we lived in a western suburb of Chicago named Elmhurst and many Chicago Blackhawk players lived there as well. We would often see a young Jeremy Roenick and his defenseman roommate at a Greek breakfast restaurant named the Rainbow, which did brisk business. I never...

    Audi Crooks to Transfer

    Interesting article in The Oklahoman this morning, with numerous quotes from Jacie Hoyt which will not please CBF’s loyal band of supporters. Hoyt debunks the $1.4M payment and says Audi wants to be coached and developed. I was unable to save an archived version to get past the paywall, so...

    ***WBB: 2027 Recruiting Thread***

    We need to pull out all the stops in recruiting a player nicknamed Bri Bri Bigfoot - she would be an immediate fan favorite!

    K-State Podcaster Says Ames is Worst Road trip in Big 12!

    Probably twenty years ago, we drove (from Iowa) to Washington, DC for Spring Break. I like to drive a different route home when possible and we planned to spend the night in Morgantown on the return trip. We pulled up in front of the Morgantown Holiday Inn at 3pm, leaving plenty of time to...

    Anything new on this front from your social media sleuthing? She'd be a welcome addition to the squad...

    ***WBB: 2026 Recruiting Thread***

    I was originally in this camp when we lost 75% of our returners, assuming our reputation would carry us to success in the portal. IMO, they've shopped from the close-out aisle and I no longer believe we'll win 20 games even if CBF schedules his typical weak pre-conference slate. We know we...

    Audi Crooks to Transfer

    I must have missed this discussion entirely. Who shared this and what was reported? Did Audi misbehave on a Maryland visit? Skim or another reliable source? Or one of the local CBF apologists?

    WBB: 2026-27 Lineup/Rotation Discussion

    AJ should be a returning Senior, unless I missed something while on vacation.

    WBB: 2026-27 Lineup/Rotation Discussion

    From the Huskies Wire article announcing Harvey’s decision to enter the portal: “Harvey averaged 3.8 points, 1.9 rebounds, and 0.8 assists per game in 23 appearances this season. She scored as many as 22 points on December 21 against Pacific, but did not play more than 10 minutes in a game...

    WBB: General All-NCAA Thread - Not Team Cyclones Stuff

    With the talent OSU has purchased, they are getting a poor ROI with a six seed! I think they’ll do better than that - they’ll beat TCU for the conference and snag a two seed.

    Mata was a freshman. Lauren Gustin was first team All Big XII, played 37 minutes / game and broke the conference rebound record. BYU had other talented front court players that year too..

    ***WBB: 2026 Recruiting Thread***

    She has some pretty impressive stats on the Slovenian U18 and U16 teams. On the U20 team in the European championships in August, 2025, she had 29 points and 11 boards in a 62-61 loss to Lithuania. I’m looking forward to seeing some tape!

    WBB: 2026 Transfer Portal

    Well yeah, they struck gold with Nastja Claessens last season, so I expect they would go back to that well again! Of course Claessens was playing pro ball in the Belgian Women's League at age 15, won ROY / POY at age 18 and was selected to the Belgian Olympic Team. She was selected late in the...

    Audi Crooks to Transfer

    I don’t think I’ve ever been on the same side of any argument that you were, but we’re 100% in agreement on this. I’m excited for our former players, especially those who didn’t play much at ISU, to get a fresh opportunity. I watched a number of Izzy Zingaro’s Cleveland State games last season...

    WBB: 2026 Transfer Portal

    As a former 6’1 post (by necessity) at a small school 40+ years ago, tussling with, bodying up and blocking out 6’5 - 6’7 players over the course of a game almost always leads to foul trouble. You can’t teach height or quickness - you have to recruit it!

    WBB: 2026 Transfer Portal

    With the signing of Spotts, our roster now stands at eleven: 8 Guards under 6' 6' - Evangelia Paulk (identifies as a guard but rebounds like a forward) 6'1 - Gift Ezekiel - C ("A riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma") 6'2 - Alex-Anne Bessette - W (only averaged 3.4 RPG at Loyola)...

    ***WBB: 2026 Recruiting Thread***

    ISU lost nine players to the portal including a second team All American, two McDonalds All Americans (both current or former 1st Team Big XII), and another starter, along with five depth players. OSU lost (three players to graduation and) 8 to the portal, none of whom were All American or 1st...

    Audi Crooks to Transfer

    The person who told me the team was imploding was 10-10 on the portal announcements and 2-2 on those staying. His daughter heard it from a team member. The story was that all ten announced their intention to leave in that year end meeting, but CBF said he refused to accept Audi’s and said he’d...

    https://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/player/_/id/5240809/edie-clarke 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...
