I thought this needed its own thread. For those who don't know, there is a lot of talks going on that former Iowa State player Kylie Feuerbach is transferring to Iowa. On Instagram, there have been recent mutual followings from Hannah Bluder (Director of Basketball Operations), Abby Stamp (Assistant Coach), Jan Jensen's son, and Raina Harmon (Assistant Coach).
Kylie Feuerbach to Iowa?
- Thread starter huntermmm
- Start date
She is a 4 star Top 100 recruit from the class of 2020. Started 22 games and averaged 5.7 points and 3.1 rebounds per game as a guard and is six feet tall. Would be a nice addition if it happens.
Very good addition with the immediate eligibility rule in effect.
They need defense and rebounding help. Hopefully, she can provide that? She doesn't look all that athletic from what I can see but I haven't seen her play.
I'd be a little cautious. She was quoted as saying "I've always been drawn to this place" when asked about Ames. Yikes.
She's a good player and I was very sad to see her go. I think she'll do very well at her next stop.
Hey Brandon, @hawkbuck70 said it's likely to happen soon. They were the poster that broke the news when Caitlin committed to Iowa last year so they have good information. I think it's fairly safe to trust that information. Hopefully we'll hear something soon.
She just announced on twitter she's committed to iowa
If she can rebound it would be a good addition.. Iowa has plenty of shooters ......one of the worst rebounding teams I watched last year.
No, but both her parents, a brother and a grandfather all graduated from Iowa State. Rumor is she didn't like the coach.
That's not a rumor, that's a fact. Just like the players at Ohio State and Maryland. Watch the court side demeanor of those coaches, and check the player turnovers in the last few years, even though the teams are all doing fairly well.
ISU has had one season of more than 18 wins in their last 7 seasons. Bill really hasn't been great for awhile.
Athletic family. Her uncle Al was a 2 time Olympian in the shot put.
Watched Iowa State a lot this year. She’s quite aggressive and fairly quick. Should help on defense and hopefully rebounding.
The CF folks said her dad in particular was a huge ISU fan, so extra surprising to me that she joined the 'dark side'
Was going to look at her profile on Iowa State's website but it was already taken down. That doesn't seem normal but I could be wrong
Looks like she was a starter for the Clowns; can we pencil her in as a starter for Iowa?
Her averages over 28 games:
22 minutes
5.5 pts
3.1 rebounds
36% FG
27% from 3
64% from FT Line
She was a 2020 commit so she has 3 years eligibility left.
A 6 foot guard. Nice.
Also, don't you know there are rules??????

looks much better in B&G. I think Iowa returns all five starters. Possibly 1st off the bench.
Fortunately for her she did not inherit the shotputter physique 😂. Hope she does well there.
When you get rid of your best assistant to bring your son on to the staff, things can go awry.
I don't pay too much attention to women's bball (Clark is changing that), but the way ISU fans rag on Fran for his record, make me wonder how he is so beloved by the same fans. He's been worse.
She was a freshman last year at IA State, right? So with the pandemic free year, she should still have 4 years left.
Sounds like a nice add for the program but those shooting %s aren't too impressive. Her FG% is .10+ worse than the entire IOWA roster (except for 2 players who road the pine most of the year). Same with FT %.

Welcome to the good side, Kylie! Sorry about the extended shower they made you take when you arrived from Lames.
Uhhhh...no. That’s not true at all.
His resume is MUCH better than Fran’s....and he built that program into what it is, which goes a long way with some.
The program was essentially nonexistent when he was hired. He has won conference titles, conference tournament titles, and 18 NCAA appearances, including five in the Sweet Sixteen and two in the Elite Eight. Fennelly has had four losing seasons in 26 years. The Cyclone women are a fixture in the top ten nationally in attendance.
That's not worse than Fran's record at Iowa.
Bluder's done more.
She's a good player. Iowa State people hate to see her go anywhere, especially to the Dark Side. She will be a strong addition to the Iowa team. I personally wish her the best. No "buts" or "nevertheless" about it.Looks like she was a starter for the Clowns; can we pencil her in as a starter for Iowa?

Having said that, her playing time was considerably greater than it would have been if Maggie Espenmiller-McGraw, who some consider ISU's best guard, hadn't been plagued with injuries all season.
You guys will be delighted with Feuerbach. Congratulations.
No, she hasn't. And she took over a program that Vivian Stringer had built into one of the nation's strongest. But with all the starters coming back and the addition of Feuerbach, next year could be something really special.
EDIT: Just looked at the record, and while Bluder's isn't as good as Fennelly's, they are remarkably similar and Bluder's in recent years is better.

Yup. One coach is declining and the other is on the rise.
And Bluder didn't take the program over from Stringer. She had some issues to overcome when she got the program.
