I have no idea if she is interested in MN. She did well in the Big10 tournament. She might be looking to move up to a better program.
I think she's just like Marian Hossa, chasing a title.
Can you win with her starting? She can't shoot and is a defensive liability.
You are partly right that non-athletes can transfer at any time. However, non-athletes are very constrained because they would lose scholarship monies and they would lose time towards graduation. Many schools allocate most of their scholarship monies to incoming freshmen and not much to transfer students or upperclassmen. If students do not get a good scholarship package as a freshman, they won’t get much more as an upperclassman with improved academics. Secondly, often some of a student’s courses or credits will not transfer to another college. Furthermore, they may be out of sequence at the new school because they do not have the right prerequisites for courses or key courses are not offered every semester. Thus, most students cannot transfer because they would lose time and money. As an academic, I would be shocked to see the strings that athletic departments can pull for athletes who are transferring one or more times. I can envision things like “let’s count Weightlifting for Algebra because they involve numbers.” Or, Fitness for Philosophy because they both have the “f” sound. Or, waving the Speech requirement because athletes do interviews and know trash talking.
That’s two key contributors from Michigan?

I thought they were on the upswing. We can only assume something must be wrong in the locker room.
She may already know where she is going. She has a do not contact tag.
She has to be asking questions.
There are over 1000 players in the portal.
Just keeps getting crazier. What is wrong in Michigan? Be interesting too see how aggressive Iowa gets now in the portal. Maybe some of these recent players are seeking Iowa, SC, UConn, etc. Ugh. If the game is going to grow more other people need to continue taking new teams to new success.
Wisconsin fans have been openly speculating/rumour spreading over the last month+ that Kapinus might return home to Madison to play her senior year.Report: Penn State women's basketball guard Leilani Kapinus enters transfer portal
On Tuesday afternoon, Penn State became even more uncertain about its future.www.psucollegian.com
Been reading that Iowa can't be too aggressive in the portal because they have only 1 open scholarship for next year.
Yeah they are targeting 1 top PG
Olsen for sure
The 5-member recruiting class is larger than their current team of four.
Hard to imagine the cash would be so attractive that she would be the only high level player left on the roster. I’m guessing the defections at Michigan are not just about money.
The girl from Villanova for one Iowa is targeting
We used to hear that rules needed to be in place to help high school athletes keep some peace in their lives during the recruiting process. It now appears that something has to be in place to stop the "legal" tampering. There isn't an industry in this country that would tolerate that. The sport needs to establish some rules for all of this that are in the athletes best interests, or go to a straight contract system that protects the interests of both schools and athletes.
