Another thing that made it harder to win a Big 10 championship a few years ago when Lisa was coach was when Rutgers came in and especially Maryland who was a top team in the country.
Sigh, always the second fiddle. At first, it's Purdue and Penn State. Next, Ohio State. Then came Rutgers and Maryland. And now UCLA and USC. For three glorious years though...

I just stated a fact regarding Rutgers and Maryland, feel free to expand on whatever you wish.

I was further examining the situation during Lisa Bluder's tenure before Rutgers and Maryland joined in. There's always a team that dominated Big Ten that Iowa couldn't quite compete against.

Could be something.. could be nothing..

Noticed when the tweets from Skim and Jan came out that Iowa got a commitment that Nation Williams mom shared a story that said “so happy!! 😜 🥰” and tagged Amari Whiting in it.. then Whiting then Whiting reshared that story.

Granted Whiting and Nation would never be teammates.. is that a positive sign for Iowa and Nation Williams?

Carnegie officially signed yesterday .. so possibly Whiting didn’t want to announce on the same day.

She did like Iowa’s instagram happy birthday post to Affolter though! 😂
I am not on instagram, facebook or X. Not interested in telling the world what I'm up to. My family and friends have my email and phone. I had a fishing blog for 10 years, with hits from over 20 countries but when I reeled in my travels, I shut it down.

Appreciate the updates though.

Posters have frequently wondered how good Hannah Stuelke would be if she had a few polished inside moves and was a scoring threat outside the lane. Is Nation Williams that player?

Some news about Nation Williams would sure add a spin to this portal season. Wonder what the connection is there? Did Nation visit OKST?
