*****Murray St vs Iowa Rd. 1 Game Thread*****

Why? Why does it bother you so much? Is it important that you guys be able to control what someone (you don’t know) says about someone you provably don’t know personally?
I just don’t get it…I guess that is why I am 76 years old…
In what way am I thinking I can "control what they say"? That doesn't mean I have to like what they say, does it?
 
Good Lord dude. It can piss me off without affecting my life in someway. Has it become your damn mission to follow me around the forum and question everything I post? Why does me not liking their freaking agenda effect you in anyway? Like you said, "who cares" right?
I think I’m gonna change my rivals ID to “ the stalker”… just for you. ;)

Good luck with Changin’ other people’s minds, too. It is a waste of your time….. and effort. But by all means, carry on.

I don't care that Paige won it, but it PISSES me off every time someone like Andrea Carter says, and I quote, " Paige was Caitlin Clark before she was". "Remember Paige is the ONLY freshman to win the NPOTY, not Clark". Like her playing for Uconn wasn't why she won the damn thing while CC22 had the better year. Its just like the dumb asses who keep saying CC22 can't be one of the greatest players because she never won a title. So ridiculous.....
I think most of those talking heads are idiots, biased, or both. I don’t care what they say. We know what’s up.

Okay then. I guess its just me. So even if someone with a platform like say Sheryle Swoopes goes out and makes bold faced lies AND people start repeating that nonsense its just water off a ducks back? Hmmm. Okay..

I won’t say I’m consistent, as sometimes I get irritated. I thought the bullshit would subside now that Caitlin isn’t a rookie, but they keep at it. It’s exhausting and for the most part I tune it out now, because her talent is obvious.

If it makes you feel better, those things probably help Caitlin. She’s a stone-cold killer and will make them look foolish in the end. Trust me.

Olsen did get a career high in assists; personally I think they are more dangerous when she is getting her teammates involved as opposed to shooting some difficult mid-range shots. JMO...not meant as a criticism.
I think you are right, but a better team limits those assist opportunities. Less paint points primarily. I just think Iowa struggles with the better teams when Lu is having an off night. When she is "on" Iowa is formidable as an opponent.

Both points and assists would be nice!

TBF PB was really good before her injury. She's still good, but she may not even be the best player on her team.
 
Don't think we'll know until tomorrow...8 games Monday 3 networks (? ESPN/ESPN2/ESPNU) hopefully 1st games tip after 5:00
Unfortunately I have a feeling if we were one of the early games today, we'll be one of the early games Monday. Hoping for like a 7pm start.

If you listen to and rely on CS as your women’s basketball authority, you are revealing you are intellectually challenged….with all due respect to Ms. Swoopes.
Some folks have knowledge to share but most are nothing more than “noise makers”..

I get what you’re saying and do agree. The problem is when someone like Swoopes convinces half the people outside of Iowa that what she says is true, and then you get even more uninformed a**holes regurgitating that 💩 online and in real life.

Folks “believing” bullshit and lies is NOT limited to women’s basketball.
Have faith in the truth.
 
It’s not like Paige was a total slouch. 20 points 6 assists 5 rebounds on 52/46/87 shooting splits and her team was better which maybe isn’t totally fair but team success plays some part in it. Clark could have been deserving but I wouldn’t call Paige undeserving either.
Paige had a stellar freshman season and I don't think anyone would disagree with that. I just feel that she should have been the runner-up to CC for POY.
 
Some Iowa fans want all pregame shows to just spend 30 minutes talking about CC being the greatest player ever.

The sports media has spent 30 years looking for the next Jordan. They’ll do the same about CC.

P.S. check out the Win Shares for their freshman season:

Win Shares1.Paige Bueckers UConn9.22.Kierstan Bell Florida Gulf Coast8.13.NaLyssa Smith Baylor7.44.Natasha Mack Oklahoma State7.45.Jasmine Dickey Delaware7.26.Aliyah Boston South Carolina7.17.Charli Collier Texas6.88.Caitlin Clark Iowa6.89.MacKenzie Holmes Indiana6.710.Ashley Joens Iowa State6.6

Looks like garbage but Paige led the country while CC was 8th.
Paige had a “head start” and she delivered..lots of pre-season hype, TV time and a NC all adds up…
It’s no big deal…all water under the bridge now….isn’t it?

Just stop. I'm not "relying" on anything they say as factual, but that doesn't make it any less irritating. And frankly, You can take your, "you revealing you are intellectually challenged" shit, and stick it where the sun don't shine. I hope thats clear enough there joel.......

He’s an ass clown, truly. I wouldn’t want him anywhere near any of my kids when it came to sporting advice.
Are you referring to the kids on your Y-ball team? They all told me you can’t coach for sh!t….but unanimously agreed you provide great post-game snacks! LEGEND!!
