I don't know anything but I've been convinced she will take the COVID year for awhile now. Here are things I've heard her say:
- I love playing for Bluder and I want to win as many games for her as I can
- I never wanna leave college / Iowa City
- I look forward to / am excited about my 2 maybe 3 remaining years at Iowa (said this twice now)
I'm sure the WNBA will be a paycut -- she is making over a million a year already according to ESPN. If she gets NPOY, that will only increase. I would assume the reason she's not coming out and saying it is b/c she doesn't want to deter any top PG recruits from considering Iowa. Furthermore tbh, she is very media-savvy. I'm sure she understands the value of the "will she or won't she" storyline.
