I am really expecting a team full of unathletic white guards who shot a decent 3-point percentage against lower-level competition.

Would you prefer them to be black and unathletic or would a mix of races work?

I really don’t care what race they are. I was just making a sarcastic remark about the makeup of previous teams. Don’t care if the are athletic or not or if the are guards or not as long as they can win.

Why would it be an Iowa State post. I think that might even be Emily Ryan's Brother in the bucket hat. Could be wrong though.

Not yet. It’s just when Skim knows something. Could be minutes/hours/days. Was hoping we’d see something yet today.

apologies, admittedly I just assumed this was an LSU burner so figured it had to do with an Iowa State transfer. didn’t know it was all WBB

Yowza…Gloom despair and agony persists. Personally I see the positives of starting fresh. No high expectations so success is even more enjoyable. No having to read people’s ******** about Audi’s lack of defense or whatever else filled the angst posts this season. Instead we will have a group of young women excited to be at Iowa State and very well might gel enough to surprise folks. Quite frankly I’m looking forward to it.

The secret formula: get rid of 90% of the roster every year so the annual 1st round loss becomes acceptable.

Who says that will be the result? The beauty of next years team is they could be anywhere from a 16-14 type of team to the upper 1/3 of a weak conference. Maybe, just maybe, they are so different (don’t have the one centerpiece) they succeed where recent teams haven’t? Just being hopeful here.

 

[CyLyte2]

A 16-14 team that plays together, defends(all five positions) and works their butts off would be far more entertaining than what we witnessed this year.

Added two more names to the list.

Interesting that Stacy's daughter isn't among those we are looking at.

I generally have to ignore people the coaches were following before they entered the portal. Often coaches don't get around to unfollowing recruits after they go elsewhere, so players like Sydney Huber and Jordan Ode who are in the portal now and are followed by multiple ISU coaches aren't on my list because those follows are old. That's kind of a blind spot in my methodology.
