...I'm happy for them, all of them.

It's not like this hasn't been coming for Ukraine for years.

Apparently, this is a huge deal, as Russia intended to capture this airport to serve as a way of flying military in. If this is true, this is a big early victory for the Ukrainians

It is great to be an Iowa Wrestling fan.

Go Hawks!

1pm on the ‘Cock

UCLA (25-1, 13-1) comes to Carver looking to stay in the big ten title chase.

Iowa (18-8, 8-7) is trying to improve their tournament seeding and try to stay above .500 in the BT.

UCLA defense is impressive. Giving up a league best 55 pts per game.

77-61 UCLA

Reported that Indiana looking at McCollum to replace Woodson.
I can see the future now and it's not encouraging.

8pm FSI

Now that the regular season is over, players looking for greener pastures are going to flood the portal market soon after their teams lose their conference tournament or with a big dance loss.

Skim Milkey already working on it. Could one be Vanderbilt's Mikayla Blakes (5'8" G)? She's gonna get one hellva payday if she does.

Here's Blakes original Top 7 list (3 from B1G):

Other Possibilities:
Kiyomi McMiller, Rutgers. The 5'8" PG - Seems obvious from the run-in with her coach and was suspended.


Potential Needs:
-Top Scorer (replace Lucy' production)
-Ball Handling to break a press (replace Lucy)
-Power Forward (replace Syd)
-Defense (replace Kylie if she leaves)

Best Players Currently in Portal:
Amari Whiting (BYU)

Seems like a lot of open speculation.

This Iowa women team lost tonight for the same reason they lost to LSU and S Carolina. Need a big bruiser that can rebound and defend the basket.

3pm the ‘Cock

Wisconsin (13-15, 4-13) comes to Iowa city today after a 30 pt loss to UCLA. The badgers are 3-7 in their last 10 games.

Iowa (19-9, 9-8) prepares to say goodbyes to their seniors at home. The hawks are 7-3 in their last 10 games.

Emotions will be high today, but hawks roll 83-69

I did research this. Fran is 7-13 in BTT. 4 of those wins came in the championship run! 3-13 before that! This is one more reason that he needs to go! More than likely another 1 and done come Wednesday!

This and the portal thread will be pinned at the top.

There had to be one, right? Any info out there?

First season with a losing conference record in quite a while. First season in recent memory without at least one McCaffery boy on the team. Is that a coincidence? I'm not so sure.

What CM and PM did best was provide a stabilizing force on the team. They left it all out on the court and inspired others on the team to follow their example. Their most important qualities were their intangibles.

I believe if PM were still on the team, the Hawks would have a winning record in conference. They'd be a lock for the NCAA tournament, too.
