Ah, none of the Final Four teams are a destination. I've been trying to think of a good spot she would fit into and accomplish the "winning" goal without sacrificing starting and playing 30 plus minutes a game. Great three point shooter and free throw shooter but maybe not good enough player...

Mostly agree with this as a Twin Cities Cyclone. ISU has had a history of recruiting basketball players from Minnesota but that was on the women's side and I think that is trending more to past tense. We've never had much success recruiting Minnesota on the men's side as your swing and misses...

If daddy Joens hadn't started a huge feud with the Iowa staff, Iowa City native Ashley Joens would likely be starting for the Hawks at small forward. So much animosity that Iowa didn't even offer her. She's within a couple games of becoming Iowa States all time leading scorer and closing in on...

Just got an email from Gophers linking to a 25% off for tickets if you buy before 11 a.m. on Saturday. Followed link but got blocked because it was asking for a promo code that the Gopher email did not include. So, anyone got that code? Totally spaced off that Minnesota was hosting the Final...

Hard, even as a rival, to dislike her after you listen to some of her interviews like the courtside one after the game. A lot of stuff she says about people not liking women players with swagger is spot on. She is good for WBB. Regarding the Gophers, damn, don't even know what to say...

As a Minnesota resident for decades and an ISU alumni I am supposed to hate the Hawks but recently they have been harder to hate and entertaining to watch if you don't have a dog in the fight (like for me when they are not playing ISU or the Gophers). Watched their last two games versus the...

We got the great Gabe yesterday for shooting. Haven't seen his freshman % shooting much, more the off and on his last two years for Gophers. He has played good defense and been a big part of the crazy turnaround in Ames from last years 2 win team. Also ex-Penn State Brockington has been our...

Okay, I should have gone with this. ;)

If Gophers are looking for a WR in the portal they might want to look at this guy. Never lived up to expectations or potential (yet) but some team should give a chance. Midwest kid from Ohio. Pretty classy farewell message and most Cyclone fans are wishing him the best.

Exhibitions don't count. There is talk of allowing freshman 6-8 games regular season games (and than to redshirt without an injury cause), something like the four games allowed freshman for football. But it's just a proposal, maybe for 2021-22 season.

Most MBB programs do not make enough in revenue to off-sets costs either. Donors, and football at a lot of power schools, pay the freight.

Big AAU event in Iowa wrapped up yesterday, Battle of the Best - All Iowa Attack's premier tournament. All-Iowa beat north Tartan in the top tier. Assuming with a degree of certainty that Whalen and staff were there, heard via ISU board LOTS of coaches from around the country, including Geno...

Sort of cookie cutter Tweets but Olson visited both major Iowa universities this week. Same mirror image posts. Obviously going to be bigger competition than ISU and Iowa from the blue blood WBB schools. Kinda cool to have another elite level recruit only a suburb away from me again...

Maryland extended Frese's contract through the 2026-27 season. Not that anyone thought she would be going anywhere but stranger things have happened. https://umterps.com/news/2021/5/25/womens-basketball-maryland-announces-contract-extension-for-brenda-frese.aspx

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...
