Probably not what he was looking for though. He's got a reputation as being a social media provocateur and was probably looking for good stuff (or just stupid drunk) for his podcast or Twitter. Even many Hawk fans will admit he is an extreme "look at me" narcissist. Thing is the pro...

^ Winner.

Ha, no not "sore". And as a MN guy I also follow the Gophers. This is more me and my take on how Midwest peeps love their small town or home state gals, sometimes a little too much. The South Dakota teams are legit and, like Drake and Mizzu State, play great team ball. I do have to hand it to...

Down to a final week for players to enter the portal and be eligible for next year. Cutoff date is May 1. Guessing most everyone that is leaving has entered. One big shoe that may yet fall, Kim Mulkey is rumored to be heading to LSU. Seemed to go from an LSU fan blog generated hot rumor to...

Already have a ton of guards and she was not a highly rated player in the 2020 class nationally. Might be one of those high scoring HS gals that is really a mid-major level talent better suited for one of the Dakota schools or a UNI or Drake. Just my unqualified hot take.

^Truth. The only midwestern white boys on the Cyclone roster this past season were three walk-ons. The previous year was one scholarship guy. I can really only think of one squad in the last 50 years that was mostly Iowa white dudes, Johnny Orr's last squad with local Ames boy Fred Hoiberg...

Minnesotan Lauren Jensen, Iowa, is entering the portal. Can't really see Gophers interested but of state fan interest.

And quite the meltdown going on within my fellow Cyclone fan base. Bunch of old men acting like 12 year olds isn't impressing me much. I can't get with all of the ex-player dissing. I can't be all welcoming arms for a transfer in and go all nasty internet tough guy on some teenager that's...

Nyamer Diew committed to Iowa State today. Might be a good get for the Cyclones. Had listed it here because of her North Tartan and Minnesota connection, really had no idea who would be recruiting her but thought Gophers would be in the mix.

Huge swing and a miss for closer schools in Minnesota, Iowa and Wisconsin. Doubly so for Stolling after reading that HS days quote from Lee. Dang. Not like her recruiting profile had closer teams going up against UConn and the like.

Man, even after decades since attending Iowa State I STILL have to pause and think for a second as to which is in Lawrence and which is in Manhattan.

Different teams. Lee plays for Kansas State, Helgren and the two other posts that opted out played for Kansas. A freshman from Greece was starting at Kansas over the trio of 6'-5" gals that opted out. My wild guess is that since Kansas has really sucked they decided to go all in with the...

It was odd, with three centers opting out at Kansas at the end of the calendar year and the coach noting that none were expected back. Kansas already seemed committed to playing a freshman gal from Greece who got freshman of the week honors a couple of times before fading against better teams...

Iowa State has a decent undergraduate business college. My hot take, without looking, is that for post-graduate level that Carlson at the U would be better. We have two graduating seniors in WBB with biz/marketing degrees. One entered the portal to transfer for grad school. Wanting to see...

Looked at the bio, still listed in previous years roster, and he's a marketing/business major.

Maybe as good as they were going to get. It's not a great job right now. There is a faithful fan base that's crazy about Hilton Magic but the programs not in good shape right now nor is it as good a P5/6 job as the fans think. Our AD caught lightning in a bottle with the Hoiberg hire, this...

Sooner's made a big hire (IMHO) to replace Sherri Coale. Now that she's broken loose from Drake, and not to a Big 10 team, she's free to takeover Iowa in 10 years after Bluder retires.

I'm a Cyclone alumnus and even I'd be hard pressed to advise him to do that. He'll have a dozen better options and chances of landing in Ames are pretty much zero. Staying with the Gophers would be better than ISU right now. Kinda think he's going to be a Hawkeye which will make both the...

I'm a Cyclone and stopped watching even though I was bored and stuck at home isolating all winter. Cyclones were like the road Gophers, only worse, and for ALL games. It was something beyond a dumpster fire of a season. Not even sure how you claw back after it. Landing any quality P6 player...

Nyamer Diew is leaving Butler. Freshman 6'-1", sounds athletic from Butler bio and limited stats. Had a lot of blocks in last few games of season. Coming off an ACL her HS senior year I think. I think she also played on North Tartan so obviously a known here in spite of not being ranked as a...
