I agree but we were CC and a collection of 3-stars going up against transfer portal Dream Teams and bluebloods with nothing but 4-5 star talent. Would've been amazing to get one but those teams gave everything they had IMO.
Really could've should've beaten LSU. If that game was officiated a little differently, or if their bench player doesn't go off on a career night, Iowa has a title.
Yeah they were a 33% three point shooting team who shot 65% from three against us, with their bench player leading the way.
I saw the clip on reddit where clark said "Congrats on your retirement, D" and DT said "Now the reality is coming to me"
I think the better question is if you take any of those four, put them on Iowa's 2023 and 2024 roster, and see if they could lead them to the national championship game two straight years.
And if Clark were on UConn or S. Carolina she probably would have 2-3 titles.
And what would have happened to Iowa had Caitlin only scored 17, 15, or 10 in a big game? They would have lost badly, yet these players’ teams all won….shows how amazing Caitlin’s accomplishments at Iowa were. If she didn’t carry the load, they get knocked out early.
Yep. Reese wasn't even the best player on her team in that 2023 CCG. Didn't matter because she was surrounded by other elite recruits. Put CC on any of those teams and she wins 2 natties minimum, probably more. Could you imagine her running point on either of those SC teams? No one would've come within 40 of them.
And Paige wasn’t the best player on her team this year….not even second best.
Here's another stat. Only 4 of 5 of the top recruits from the 2020 class won a natty.
