As in the old Toni Home Permanent Ads: "Only Hoiberg knows for sure!"

Thanks @rastro!

As a corollary to the above: The Good news is all the new players are not freshmen; and the Bad news, to some, they are not all freshmen.

Oh My!!!

Chris McGraw!

And here I thought life was so simple BH (before Hoiberg)!

I think @HUD has hit the nail on the head! The critical issue is going to be the team Not being hobbled by health problems during the course of the season; more-so than inexperience (we're not) or lack of playing time together (we haven't). We've all seen that even under the best of circumstances players can easily be injured or suffer debilitating health issues as a result of playing BB (think Rachel Theriot her Sr season, or Rachel Blackburn, and those are just a couple of examples). Healthwise we are probably one of the most fragile teams going into the season in the B1G. For example: Taylor Kissinger, will she come back 100% from surgery and stay healthy; MiCole Cayton, knee injuries; Mackenzie Helms, recovering from surgery; Trinity Brady, concussions. I may be wrong but I think Getting, and Staying, healthy will be more critical to whatever success we have this season rather than experience, or team development.

Just read this elsewhere!

I don't see where we have offered (Yet!)

I just hope Bourne doesn't decide she wants to play closer to home!

Thanks @MichHusker. Do you have any Link??

Thanks Whoop! but as much as I'd like to take credit, it wasn't me . It was someone I saw elsewhere that said we ought to go after Maya after watching the Wazata vs St Louis Park game clip. I merely agreed; and hope we have a chance with her! A good season this year could really help!

2022 Mara Braun, 6-0, G, Wazata HS, Plymouth, MN Do we have a Chance? (Teammate of Husker Commit Annika Stewart) https://www.hometownsource.com/sun_sailor/sports/mara-braun-is-already-one-of-the-states-best-as-a-sophomore/article_736f42f8-6d3d-11ea-9832-6f5fd01892f6.html

And here all this time I thought Lisa Bluder was the HC @ Iowa!!!! (can't get away with anything around here. )

You're On my LIST, Jimmy!!!!

Just goes to show that someone who likes Silent Movies and Film Noir, just Can't be ALL Bad! (Thanks @KZRider ) Here's my contribution: (oops, guess I did something early-on ) For lovers of Film Noir, and classic B&W, TCM has about a 2 hr show every Friday Night ('Noir Alley') around 10pm Eastern (repeated early Sunday morning) hosted by Eddie Muller, sometimes called the 'Czar of Noir.' Muller's knowledge of Film Noir is encyclopedic; He introduces each film (with back stories) which is worth the price of admission alone. Btw, Eddie Muller hosts an annual Film Noir Festival each January where they screen some 20 vintage Film Noirs over 10 days. I've been able to attend almost every showing for the past 18 years (Now, That's a LOT of ). www.noircity.com

Thanks @Husker22. We need a 'Cinderella' Season this year!

I read elsewhere that someone thought we had better also be looking at #10 in Blue. I think he's right! (I just hope she's not already 'Taken' ) https://www.hometownsource.com/sun_sailor/sports/mara-braun-is-already-one-of-the-states-best-as-a-sophomore/article_736f42f8-6d3d-11ea-9832-6f5fd01892f6.html
