Destiny Pitts announces she is leaving Minnesota: https://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2020/01/16/gopher-womens-basketball-star-destiny-pitts-announces-intention-to-leave-the-program/

well, i just don't have a good feeling about this one. maryland is due to put a complete game together. playing at home, this could very well be the night. i won't be shocked if maryland wins big-----20+. i think maryland comes right out of the gate with that pressure defense----which could make it a very long night. wish i felt different, but..........it is what it is. think most will agree maryland has the potential to be that good.

Whalen reads statement on the suspensions: “To be an athlete at the University of Minnesota comes with high standards and expectations,” Whalen said Wednesday while reading from a prepared statement at the start of her media access period. “When those are not met, there are consequences. I will always respect the privacy of a student-athlete. So I will not go into any detail to what led to my decision, or what has transpired since. But, with that said, I can tell you that Destiny Pitts’ status has not changed. She remains suspended.” Taiye Bello — the Big Ten’s leading rebounder — and reserve Kehinde Bello also did not make the trip nor play in the 74-71 loss at Illinois. They are back with the Gophers, Whalen said, and will practice Wednesday but their status for Thursday’s game is still to be determined. When asked if the absence of the Bello sisters at Illinois was related to Pitts’ situation, Whalen replied, “um, no.” When asked if she thinks the situation with Pitts can be resolved, Whalen said: “Yes. But as I said, I’m not going to go into details as to what that is. But yes.”

i haven't heard about any vball offers.

as of Jan 13th, charlie creme has nebraska as one of the last 4 in....and, has huskers moving "downward". work to do!

ya know, i might compare this to the same thing that coach frost has been going through. watched some of the highlights from the illinois game. the young players played pretty darn well. freshman scalia may be a diamond in the rough for the gophers. not sure how many P5 offers she had, if any. she was a 3* and rated like the 56th guard? i really am impressed by her game. she has dropped some long 3 pt'ers. she is one of the best in the big ten as a freshman. wouldn't surprise me at all that coach whalen smooths things out once she establishes her culture. might take another year or two. i don't know if she will be fighting for a big ten championship, but, think she will have minny consistently in the fight.

yes, appears she has a little "spring" in them legs....

ok, i am going by the sdsu jackrabbit site: guess we have to take it fwiw quote:"Sydni Schetnan (2021) - SF Washington: Offers from Kansas, Nebraska, Kansas St, Indiana St, NDSU. Sydni is 6'5 and very athletic so I wouldn't be surprised to see some more P5 offers come in. Very good volleyball player as well."

Gerry, Farniok's, and now Pai (sp?)....nice to see huskers entering the fray. sioux falls always seemed to be connected to the hawkeye's for some reason. maybe because okoboji is so close. when i lived near and in sioux falls always saw a lot of hawkeye flags/plates. been changing in the last decade.

yes, cross country runner that i know i believe washington's only loss so far is to sam haiby's moorhead
