They roomed together abroad when Team USA won the U19 World Cup in 2019.
So, its been a while.
From roommates to opponents, superstars Caitlin Clark and Hailey Van Lith headline Elite 8 matchup
When they meet up on Sunday in Seattle, expect Caitlin Clark and Hailey Van Lith to put their friendship aside.
Well, I saw grad transfer and immediately thought last year. I thought she was a grade above Caitlin, oops. Still, we don't need her with CC. We could use the other two, especially Betts.
I think LSU like someone else posted above. It's what Mulkey does.
I have heard that Iowa does not have any available schollies, is this true? If so, then the only way Bluder gets some of these transfer portal players is to tell some current players to walk, or bring them in as walk ons. Of course, now days with NIL, maybe a walk on could make enough to pay for school and still line their pockets.

We had 15 (the maximum) on scholarship this past season.
Molly Davis is listed as a senior but I don't think she's done.
We lose 2 (Monika & McKenna). However, two high school kids are coming in, I believe, so we're back to the maximum of 15 on scholarship.
So, like you said, how could we add Hailey or anyone when we have 0 scholarships available for next season?

Some of the cruelest, meanest, and most rotten things I've ever said were said to my closest friends. And things I said to them on the basketball court were downright evil.
Keep in mind that all 15 scholarships are spoken for. How are they gonna add anyone else?

Yes I’m totally in agreement on that part as well. If a spot should open up we definitely need a post first.
NIL will probably be the way to get extra players to iowa unless players that won’t play transfer out.
Oh, and HVL appears to be white trash with how she acts on the court. Her Dad looks like a clown too.

Then CJ has proceeded to shoot a sizzling 35% from the field at UK, with a whopping 3 points in their NCAA Tournament games.
The fact that he is in their rotation shows how much less talented UK’s teams are now than in Cal’s first 7 years there.
Or how about the NCAA not be a bunch of pricks and not have Ava Jones's scholarship count against our limit?
She can keep her dream of playing for Iowa but realistically she won't be able to suit up. Don't make her do the medical hardship waiver. If she did that then she'd be medically retired from Iowa.
Not so much fire people, but I expect some to want more PT. It's a natural thing. Time will tell.
Do you not understand the roster limit is 15, regardless of scholarship or walk on?I have heard that Iowa does not have any available schollies, is this true? If so, then the only way Bluder gets some of these transfer portal players is to tell some current players to walk, or bring them in as walk ons. Of course, now days with NIL, maybe a walk on could make enough to pay for school and still line their pockets.
Rosters change. I’m expecting at least 1 spot to open up. If Betts wants to come to Iowa, it will happen.
Well not Oregon then but I think they said her family is still is Wash so maybe she is transferring back there. She has proved herself on the top levels of WBball. Although she might be chasing a ring at UConn etc
Never 0%. A long shot...for sure. But never 0%
If scholly limits were the issue.. CC could definitely pay her own way with NIL $ freeing up a scholly. HVL probably could too...she's a superstar.
Nope it won’t happen, and even if it did…not sure how well it would work out as they both need/want the ball in their hands to be effective.
You might if the other player (in this case Lith) trash talked to you first. 😜

We would not bring back Marshall and Martin for a COVID year if there was any chance we’d seek a guard in the portal. Right now it’s looking like we will need to be creative to even bring in one person, it certainly won’t be a G.
Might be time to start saving a scholarship every year for a portal player for that missing piece you need. A 3 yr. starter is better than recruiting a HS girl unless they're going to be a freshman starter.

Bluder did this the last two seasons. I’ve mentioned a few times now I was very surprised when she announced both Marshall and Martin were returning. When she let Tomi graduate, I knew it was bc she wanted to portal. I really thought she would do the same this year. It led me to strongly wonder if she knew someone was likely to be leaving.
Sure about that?
A simple google search shows that for the men, the average is 16 (those on scholarship + walk ons)
And yet we still need an off guard that can handle the ball and score when teams are hounding Clark.
I think everyone can admit that when the ball wasn't in Clark's hands, people were worried it was getting stolen from Martin, Warnock, Davis in just about every game from Colorado on..........
While this is true, at Louisville, Van Lith was more of a shooting guard, and wasn't always the one to bring the ball up the floor.
They just ran a lot of stuff to get her open looks or space to create.

Bluder has had faith in her 3 starting Gs for 3 seasons and isn’t going to shake things up now.
False. I (and plenty of others) don't like it when men do it either.
Brad from the swarm mentioned this morning that NIL could be utilized to lure in a player even without an open ship.
Talking sh#t and chirping back and forth has been done in basketball forever. While I understand the line between that and taunting may be hard to draw, saying shut up, you're down 15 certainly is not. Just not a big deal. And for someone to call HVL "white trash" because she was talking too, that is BS as well. It's part of the game.
You let your play on the court do most of your talking. Her Dad appears to be that kind of person you don’t want affiliated with your squad/parents. They both resemble white trash.

Can you tell us more about what he said? Where was this? Thanks for the info!
Van Lith is cute. I wouldn't mind playing her in a little one on one
