If I had to guess next years outcome, 21-24 wins, 4-6 seed in the big 12 tourney, and a middle seed in the ncaa tourney

I’m more optimistic DEPENDING on where transfers land. The only team in the league with equal, or thereabouts, talent to ISU is Baylor. Right at this moment I’m not sure who I could pick ahead of the Sisters. Still much to learn with transfer recruiting going on. TCU already landed one big transfer.

It seems to me that TCU is willing to spend big $ to buy a team.

Saw on one board that the asking price for Miles was $1 million for the one year.
I got to doubt the numbers on this one. A million for almost any WBB is a massive overpay, could be much better spent on their own crappy MBB team or football team.

I learned my lesson last year. Like most people here (I think), I projected a top 20 finish, not a top 10. But I was wrong even then.

This year, I'm taking a more wait and see approach. I think the Sisters have a lot of potential and could make a lot of noise. We know what Crooks and Brown can do but we don't know how AJ, A. Williams, Wilson, Tanke and Harris will progress over the summer and during the non-con. We really don't know how Jada will fit in. If she can provide floor leadership and 10-15 points a game, without taking away from Crooks and Brown, that would be huge. I've got a very good feeling about Hare, but I also know that coming back from a major injury and surgery can be challenging - but she has already shown she is super tough. Beaty and Jensen are unknowns and probably looked upon for bigger contributions down the road, but Jensen has shown she knows how the find the basket.

Lots of unknowns, but what I like about this team is there is lots of potential for exciting ball this season. All it takes is for one or two players to step up and find their mojo and this version of the sisters could scare a lot of teams.

And of course, Bill may not be done in the portal. Go Clones!!
