Maybe some of our veterans need to sit for a bit going forward until they figure things out.

Which one?

I could see starting Brown instead of Simon. And Haiby instead of Kissinger. Try Cain, Eliely, Brown, Whitish, Haiby for starters and see what happens. Just my two cents based on a snapshot of what I’ve seen.

I found the final quarter online - not a lot of good there. Haiby looked good - maybe she should start? Lots of sloppy mistakes and I didn't see a whole lot of rebounding and our defense of the 3 was an abomination. Why can't we take care of the ball?

I haven't been able to watch any games or listen to any - just go by what I read on the board and box scores. Would you change who starts? Is there a chemistry issue?

Don’t know if this helps - Creighton lost at home to my Yotes.

That new VB commit has a twin sister as well. Another tidbit - she is the stepchild of Bill Ziegelbein, a walk on with the Husker FB program in 1987 who eventually became the starting center. Bill died in a tragic accident on his way to Sturgis around 4-5 years ago. Her mother was a college basketball player and her older sister had committed to the Huskers before switching to a smaller school for college.

I meant “What was Iowa’s first offense?”

What was the first one?

Yup, she's on the roster. http://wnbl.com.au/uc-capitals/players/ Sounds like Griffin will join after rehabbing her injury.

I think she was cut from the Sky and might be in Australia playing on the same team as Griffin (who switched to Canberra I think)? Or I could be way off base.

Except Frost has experience.

How is the Whalen hire going to work? Does she have any coaching experience? She is still playing with the Lynx - has she hired a coaching staff already to cover for her this summer? Honestly, if I was a Gopher fan I don’t know that I’d feel very good about this. At least get someone in with experience and maybe hire her as an assistant so she can learn the ropes of coaching at a Power 5 school. Or am I missing something?

I agree. I suspect it may have been a mutual parting between JS and NU and NU helped her out with the waiver. Now ND owes us one!

She made a huge mistake by committing to the program at such a young age. She didn't want to be here and it really showed, especially her final year at NU. The program is better off without her - it's Romeo that we really missed.
