    I believe Houston, Spieser, Crump, and Bjorn all played together at AIA. How cool 😎 would it be to reunite that group? !!! That my recollection anyway, anybody - please advise if I’m not remembering correctly.

    And 48.5% from 3 point land in the tournament. Good enough to be named 2026 Big 12 All-Tournament Team. 87.5% FT and 3.5 rebounding average for the season. She is absolutely worth a scholarship.

    He didn’t say. I’ll ask him next time I see him (which should be fairly soon when the AAU spring / summer circuit begins) and report back.

    2027 Recruiting

    I have some intell on the Wilson sisters (Mya 2027 and Ashlee 2030) but first some context on the source... I referee basketball up here in MN and often work with a fellow ref (and now friend) whose daughter is the #1 rated recruit in MN for 2029 - she already has an offer from MN and upcoming...

    Is it assumed Alvaro returns?

    Ben is far too smart and competitive to go into next year with last year’s front court. We’ll get a C in addition to a PG. If Al comes back, I’d be very surprised if we didn’t free up another spot somehow to get us to the two required open spots.

    If those numbers are true, we really missed the mark with Al and Hausen especially

    We currently have 1 Open Roster Spot if Tavion Banks returns in 2026-27

    Of course the WBB has their own budget but the point that we still way overpaid for her relative to her contributions this last year - similar to Hausen and Al F on the men’s side - remains. We need to be smarter with both MBB and WBB funds.

    Connor and Fran

    Fran accomplished a lot here - on and off the court. His family are / have tarnished Fran’s accomplishments…

    Overspent on Hausen, Al F, and Deal and didn’t compensate Stirtz relative to his market value as it turned out. We need to get smarter on how we spend our NIL money.

    Great hire, deep UNI roots, former UNI assistant, strong ties to Cedar Falls, his wife still lived in Cedar Falls while he was in Ames, AJ Green’s father. More importantly, the dude can coach. Architect of ISU’s very effective defense. P. S. Kyle, not Tyler (I recognize it was probably auto-...

    Al F will always be remembered for his major contributions - especially the big shot to beat FL - in the magical run in the Big Dance. However, I agree with those who think that we can better spend his $1M towards a high quality PG and C.

    Here’s the tweet a poster above alluded to. He went on to say in the comments he thought it was due to lack of anticipated playing time.
