I don’t have access to the Strib article referenced in this ESPN post. At the end it says Battle announced she plans to return next year. This is the first time I read that, and if true is amazing news and makes me even more excited for what our new coach can accomplish with the team next...

Dawn was my first place choice! I wasn’t sure we could get her one year into her West Virginia tenure. I watched South Dakota’s NCAA run last year and they were amazing. winning AT #2 seed Baylor ending a 12 year Sweet 16 run. Tied under 30 seconds left with Michigan just missing the Elite 8. An...

Rose is the player I’m least shocked to hear portal news about. I recall a Strib article at the beginning of the season that Rose’s older brother, who she refers to as her best friend in the article, was diagnosed with leukemia a month before the season. I could see her closer to home in...

You’re right! I don’t know why I felt so sure about their run originally that I didn’t look it back up 😆 but they did lose in the Sweet Sixteen to Michigan by 3. Yeah, I’m not sure what the buyout would be. I was able to find she finished year 1 of a 5 year contract that was at $550,000 this...

There are two very experienced coaches I would want to interview. Dawn Plitzuweit and Kamie Ethridge. Dawn (the non-Staley one) has a career recruiting Big Ten areas and took South Dakota to an Elite Eight. (!!) She has coached at Michigan and Wisconsin, and has over a decade of experience as a...

Now that we’re here… Jennie Baranczyk. Done a great job at Drake and now Oklahoma. Only 41yo, a former Hawkeye some speculate taking over at Iowa whenever Lisa Bluder retires. Might like inheriting this great group closer to home now that Sherri Coale’s very good 5th year players graduate. My...

Someone posted same time as this… Don’t know how to delete this thread.

Some of y’all got what you wanted… https://gophersports.com/news/2023/3/2/whalen-steps-down-as-head-womens-basketball-coach

Solid win. Lots of contributors, and can see the potential. I really enjoyed watching them get to get a good win on the last home game of the season. Any chance they’d try the WBI tournament that Stollings used one post season? Might be a stretch but would like the team get that post-season...

As a fan that attends games, and is invested in rooting for the players AND coaches, is there a way to mute negative posters or delete negatives threads from one’s feed? There are times I look forward to checking here to find info and share in rooting for everyone. But some (many) days…...

Jordan Zubich has made a decision and we’ll find out on Sunday. 🤞 🤞 🤞

I really enjoy cheering on and Rose watching her development at MN. One thing you cannot teach is height and it will benefit everyone to have a talented 6’5” teammate. I would be surprised and disappointed if the team can’t find ways to use Rose and Hart on the floor at the same time together. I...

I attended the high school state tournament semis when Paige’s team played Hart’s team before COVID shut the tournament down before the finals. That was my one time watching Hart in person and I’ve really hoped to watch her as a Gopher since. I was a student manager for a Power 5 team in the...

My +1 is unable to attend. If anyone wants an extra ticket tonight I’m happy to transfer it to them through the Gophers app.

🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞 Here’s her tweet mentioned by Mainstreeter.

I believe her partner works for Penn State so that sounds likely!

I just looked at the likes on the announcement post and in addition to the lack of Gopher staff likes I don’t see any from Baylor or South Carolina staff either so maybe that’s just something coaches avoid until an official announcement has been made. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I’m still hoping for great Gopher...
