This portal class is shaping up well
Amari Whiting commits to Iowa
- Thread starter CRHAWK
- Start date
Another shooter is welcome news! Might give Ava some room to operate.
she's not a great shooter
2024 - 26% 3FG
2025 - 32% 3FG
she's more of a Kylie F. clone with a better offensive skillset, she's a ball hawk on D
Here's a cued up video with Amari Whiting talking about what part of her game she takes the most pride in. SPOILER: It starts with the letter D.

Dancing on the bench after a 3 pointer
She wouldn't have much practice at that. She has not been on the bench all that much in her first three years
But can she dribble with a defender in her face? Kylie struggled with that.
I made my original post without the promised video, providing a wonderful opportunity for everyone to make fun of me. Two hours later, I noticed my mistake and added the video, but I welcome continued mockery. I am quite amused by it.
I've read that Whiting has started every collegiate game she's played in.
Do you think that's the plan?

Glad to see a defensive specialist added and the baton passed. Every team should have one and Iowa has had a pretty good recent run with one in the lineup.

Yeah, Kylie improved her handles and if she could get her shoulders and torso past a defender she was good at going to the glass. But since she wasnt a trey hotshot defenders could also back off of her
I hope she has a great year. Hope she is tops from 3 pt range
Then it looks like someone, or two, between Carnigie/Stremlow/Whiting ain't gonna be happy.
Lots of three guard offense?
Is there really a difference in our style of play between a guard or a SF?
I think that as the years go by we will see Jan change up the style of play, a bit, to the individuals she has at that moment. Will most likely always be based around a point guard and a post..just like we have seen for the last decade...but change up based on what the other strengths and weaknesses of the team as a whole.
I think that's essentially true for all teams that play modern basketball. When the players are introduced pregame, the player at the 3 position is always introduced as a guard.
yes aesthetically speaking she has the edge…will wait for the game against wi before making a call in other respects
It's math and stats, if she shoots 3 treys she should make one, 6 treys is 2 makes.....
Maybe she gets to be a 40 % 3 pt shooter and shoots 10 a game and makes 4 for 12 + points, that would be great and they say she plays tough Dee, maybe she is a great passer also.
Really? Kylie was still really bad at attacking the glass. Mostly just poor decisions on when to take it all the way. She would regularly drive into traffic and get swallowed up and have no where to go.
Again, there really isn't that much difference between the 2 and the three spots. Syd was what, 5'11'? I don't think you can label the 3 as a forward exclusively in women's basketball.
Yeah. She made all of 18 2 point baskets the entire season on 38% shooting and only 7 in Big10 play. She and McCabe hit a total of 23 between them.

Wow. The crazy thing is that's a HUGE upgrade for McCabe if you can believe that. Only playing about 1/2 the season and that 5 two point baskets was probably a career season high in her time at Iowa.
