12/1 Iowa vs NC State game thread

I LOVE Stuelke on the glass and off the bounce (when under control). But we're seeing why Stuelke doesn't get even more minutes -- decision-making within the flow of the offense.

It's a bit of a let down right now watching her on defense. She has all the tools to be an elite defender but gets caught out of position too much. Our coaching staff is just not great at teaching defensive fundamentals.
 
this team has no FUN.
we see this game all the time
break up this mess
were not going 30-1
get ready
people / girls shoot the ball
monica nothing ... someone shoot
forget rankings
molly davis should shoot 12 shots a game
 
Bluder worries too much about keeping everybody happy and not upgrading players. Top 25 team but that is about it with this cast. Crap defense, sloppy passing and poor shooting, Bluder has topped out as a coach very similar to other Iowa coaches.

The shooting has been really bad...better ramp it up come conference season or they're a middle of the pack team

Its all about quickness/athleticism. If you can't make a wide open shot you are a liability. Clark is the best.
 
They're just dribbling right around our players and shooting a high percentage shot at the rim.
 
Really sad that Clark doesn't have a better supporting cast. It's actually kind of amazing how little both basketball teams have actually accomplished over the last four years with lifetime talents (Gustafson, Clark, Murray, Garza)
Really is amazing that Bluder hasn’t been able to attract more top talent to go with Caitlin. She is an all time great and generational player. Keegan, Luka and Meagan were also great players, but not at the same level as Caitlin
 
No defensive intensity seems to be a Bluder trademark.

No where near athletic enough.

Bluder does not know how to prepare a team for an elite team and has no clue during the game how to address runs, The defense tonight had been horrendous. JMO
 
Defense. How is this still happening. I LOVE THESE WOMEN. But this is so painful. Pain. So much pain. Not everyone is going to be on fire every night offensively. That’s the game. Fine. But good defense is about will. Energy. Fire. Passion. Drive. Whatever.

I just don’t understand how this happening when this is exactly what everyone said would happen all off-season.
