Mara Braun is not viewed as a future WNBA player. That is crazy talk. The Gophers are a lower tier BIG10 team where Mara is in a great situation to shoot way more than she should because the team needs her scoring. Players that go to the WNBA are the top players on sweet sixteen teams.Mara Braun when healthy is the best guard the Gophers have had since the Days of Keke Bell, Rachel Banham, and Carlie Wagner. Oh, BTW ALL OF THOSE were drafted or (Banham) still in the league. Mara Braun is viewed as a future WNBA player.
Also, can we start being REALISTIC?! This is still a program on the rise and has to build up. No one in the big ten is winning the conference outside of UCLA or USC for the next couple of seasons. Making the tournament is the next step and a needed step to attract "WNBA LEVEL" players. Iowa literally had to build with the likes of Megan Gustafson, Kathleen Doyle etc before they got their superstar in Clark. You are not getting superstars without the stars like Mara, Mallory, Amaya building up the program. Plain and simple.
But also ... literally the top recruiting class in the history of the program....and now we saying not good enough. MN Fans will be the reason why some players don't wanna deal with staying home.

I agree that Braun is not WNBA caliber now. However, she has two more years and I am hoping that she can improve her game enough to get into the WNBA. She needs to improve her ability to get to the basket and her defense. I see some similarities with Scalia, who didn't get into the WNBA this season but I think have I read that she is playing overseas. With some more seasoning, maybe Scalia will get a shot at the WNBA.Mara Braun is not viewed as a future WNBA player. That is crazy talk.

No finalist surprises: Texas, Duke, Ohio StateI also think there is zero chance that Aaliyah Crump even considers Minnesota. . . .

She may have gotten enough money from Texas to live for awhile?Won’t she be surprised when she can’t get a job at the Star and Tribune in mpls.
Texas has money, but they also have Vic Schaefer. Look what he did recruiting and winning at relative backwater Mississippi State.She may have gotten enough money from Texas to live for awhile?
Best recruiting class last year was Texas. Just guessing their NIL money is a factor.

Henley West has offers from Illinois St, Idaho St, SWOSU, Stephen F Austin, Missouri Southern, Brown, Texas Arlington, Central Arkansas, West Texas A&M, Fort Hays St,Offer for Henley West. She is a 6-4 center from Oklahoma.
Perhaps Coach P sees something in her that could be developed by working with Ariel, Aaron, and Jason. I believe they are great developers of bigs.Henley West has offers from Illinois St, Idaho St, SWOSU, Stephen F Austin, Missouri Southern, Brown, Texas Arlington, Central Arkansas, West Texas A&M, Fort Hays St,
Central Missouri AND Minnesota.
A poor mans Sophie Hart. Similar game.
Not saying she can't be All Big Ten. Basically, Monika Czinano has the same attributes as Sophie and Henley. It all comes down to scheme, utilization and development. Obviously, they have a vision for her.Perhaps Coach P sees something in her that could be developed by working with Ariel, Aaron, and Jason. I believe they are great developers of bigs.
While a commitment from Parchment would give them two top-50-rated players, I say this respectfully, but careful taking advise or listening to this author. He gives little to no actual attention to the WBB team. Everything he said is going off service level or searched tweets. I promise you he couldnt pick any of the two commits out of a lineup.I saw the attached article on SI.com which indicated that if MN could land Parchment they would have one of the top 2025 recruiting classes in the B1G. That would be pretty impressive for Coach P and her staff if they can get that done in only their 2nd recruiting class.
Top-40 basketball recruit deciding between Gophers, 3 other schools
Canadian 2025 forward Cearah Parchment has cut her college choices down to the Gophers and three other schools.www.si.com
To be fair, whichever B1G team gets her will then have one of the top recruiting classes in the B1G.While a commitment from Parchment would give them two top-50-rated players, I say this respectfully, but careful taking advise or listening to this author.
