- Start date
I thought about Petrie last week, she would be a one year fill in to help out 4 position. I appreciated her hustle and grit although not caring for Nebraska’s coaching. Thoughts?
Most posters who put others on ignore have grown tired of their spam.
No, no.. Nobody has an agenda here..
Opinions are fine. Being a Dick head Pric k arent. I got off these boards years ago because of punks acting little sissy girls. You one? Opinions and facts and information are what is supposed top happen, not internet bitches acting tough.
Read the post dumb ***. I am a fan of hers, but she has stated plenty of times she filled a need, not a desire. She is not 4 size. She can be a 3 developing. I said if she is forced to fill in at a 4, she very well could leave to play a position she desires. If she transfers the Deal issue will be far less an issue the JH. However, she needs to develop offense over the summer to play 3. Read.
By your logic all of the guards must have been really tired because they all shot about the same or worse over that period.
Derp, clicked on the wrong post.
Batteries in keyboard died so left it until I picked up new ones

The stats don’t lie. You can’t argue it. And it reinforces my opinion on her overall talent and where Iowa needs to elevate. If you can’t legit assess her and be willing to acknowledge areas or deficits, then it’s a different agenda. You feel the need to protect her for some reason. Or exaggerate her talent. Solid role player, workhorse, high motor. Shes been recruited over at the 2g. You’re not gonna hurt her feelings..
Wonder what their NIL budget is
Dude. We get it. She replaced your girlfriend so you're upset. That's the only agenda here. You need to move on. Now, what actual stats would you like to discuss that I haven't already provided to you and you've continually ignored?
He doesn’t go real deep into the bench. Maybe like 2 spots deep, so their projected starters probably earn a competitive payment but their bench likely not so so much.
What you pointed as MW’s weaknesses, she’s already much stronger than HS. She has everything to give us a big upgrade at the 4, maybe with some struggles at the beginning, but I would bet that in her freshman year MW will already be the team leader in rpg.

You've jumped on me a couple times as well. So lets just say someone could have the same opinion of the way you post. Look I can get a bit prickly as well. But if you dish it, you better be able to take it. It was a little jab - and then you jumped out of your shoes. Affectively an overreaction for the board. So cussing like you are above at me . . . seems like you are in a situation where you are forgetting at least 3 fingers are point back at you.
As to Journey and coaching decisions. A coach has to do what is best to win. Jan can't worry about pleasing Deal and losing her by not playing her enough. As to Journey - Journey has to put in the work to be a 3 if she wants to be a 3. She is an effective 4 with her current skill set. Personally I think she will improve. If she doesn't that isn't necessarily on Jan. With the way the portal is you can fill any hole at any time.

You mention Deal. I thought you were better than making strawman arguments. This isn’t about Deal. Maybe you’re more obsessed with her.
You’re not addressing my point at all. TS wore down. Look at HER stats and play. She has been recruited over in the portal. All factual. You should take up my feelings about TS talent with JJ. We seem to feel the same. Really lazy argument here.
But back to the portal.
Woliczko stronger than Stuelke? No. Don't do that, you create expectations that will never serve Woliczko well. She's going to do fine, but she's a long way from being able to rebound with a Big Ten big pushing on her. It's not MW's frame, and not her game. She will add muscle and strength, but it takes time.
I know the stats. I just don’t believe it’s because she was too tired.
You honestly believe a 20 year old wouldn't be completely exhausted playing an hours worth of basketball a week for five months straight?
That’s fair. I think being a starter and needing her to be consistent scorer wore her down and contributed to the stats. But it’s impossible to really know.
Whether it’s worn down or just poor play, it reinforces my opinion (and maybe I’ll be proven wrong) that I think Iowa to elevate and make a FF run needs a talent upgrade now at SF (based on JJs comments about where TS will play). Maybe having DC at 2g will take pressure off TS and allow her to be more of a secondary player. I just think to be elite Iowa can upgrade there and have TS be a valuable bench player. I don’t think TS is a starter on any of the teams who legit will compete for a title next year. Again, I like her as a player largely because of her motor and effort.
You're probably right. I feel so dumb now. I think the whole team must have been exhausted as poorly as they all shot the ball.
Well they have upgraded the backcourt talent with DC. Maybe better talent will minimize exhaustion.
She isn't stronger. Not even close. I met Hanna a couple years ago with my children before the game at the elevators. She is well put together, her arms and legs are stronger, but she is also 4 years older. MW uses here body very well. I think we will be very happy with what she gives us.
He might be killing it but so is Notre Dame, the problem will be similar to Iowa in a year or two, can he keep them all happy and more importantly when you bring in that type of a recruiting class that takes money out of your pocket down the road for future recruits.
I meant that in the biggest weakness he pointed out in MW’s game “Feels like the potential flaws/weaknesses would be consistent 3 pt shooting” she’s more stronger (or better) than Hannah. I don’t know if it was clear.
I hope Iowa gets Raegan McCowan. She shoots 3 and can defend bigger guards on the opposing team. She already played in Carver too, just like Carnegie.
They are a perfect for each other.
