Hmmmm…guess that could go either way.

Maybe she just lost interest in Iowa…or…maybe she was told that Iowa no longer has any scholarship openings at her position.
Or maybe Nike NIL owner just bought another player. When you have billions of dollars money doesn't matter.....

I agree with HawkFan10. Losing Krstevski is not a problem and may be a blessing. Too many cooks (posts) in the kitchen can prove to be a big problem for the kind of meal we want. Losing McKenna would be a problem and bring the portal back in play big time for ‘26 in my thoughts.

Indiana's new recruiting coordinator (came over from Alabama) seems to be making a big impact. Indiana was a latecomer to Gigi Battle's recruitment, but reeled her in.

I have been an Iowa fan my whole life. I live in the Iowa City area and I am a season ticket holder to Football, Wrestling and Iowa WBB. A source who is always right told me she was committing. So I shared it because everyone was curious and I am called a troll. I look forward to your apology when the news breaks.

They sure so far are blowing Iowa out of the water in the 2026 class.

You may have guessed right, and if your guess was right, nobody owes you an apology. You'll be fine without it, I promise.

Not a guess. But as you say I will never be able to prove it and I really don’t care if you believe me. You are correct. I am perfectly fine.

If it is Wolizcko, I think based on the conversation between Mckenna's dad and Bjorn's dad that things may be looking better on that front as well. If they think the culture is top notch and the recruiting is improving there is a very real possibility this is the class we have been waiting on. I have said all along I thought Lewis would stay in state. The lack of other offers and a few other big recruits going elsewhere leads me to believe things are solidifying for a very strong class. Just me reading the tea leaves.

To add to the rampant speculation of 2 commits (as rumored in some circles, not just above in this thread)...
  1. Any significance to the tweet by Barrett containing 2, not 1, hearts?
  2. The timing of Gi Gi Battle and Emilia Krstevski commitments elsewhere without taking their IA visits (i.e. the dominos are falling)?
Note: I have no idea if this has any merit, just adding "fuel to the fire"! :)

Easy Sunshine - First, you did not explain how you obtained your information; all you posted was " Wokizcko committed to Hawks." I apologize if I hurt your feelings - I don't live in Iowa City, and I don't have season tickets to those venues. I also don't get upset when posting on a sports forum.

You know you are making a lot of sense here :)
