Wow, I hope all goes well for you.
KF with all the coordination of a drunk penguin wearing high heels.
Running around like a 4 year old after six Red Bulls.
Two big free throws made by Hannah to ice it.
Whew.
Whew.
I don’t blame Jan for this team or season at all, but I will tell you she has struggled finding someone who can inbound the ball and designing good plays.
I threatened a law suit if the lobs continue
Fran and Jan understand how to use a TO less than most Middle School coaches!
Please join me in praying for Ava Heiden's malignant brain tumor she must be suffering from to not see the court tonight.
AOG is regressing: a bad performance against a bad team. So frustrating to watch.

I hate that same setup. People always get stuck in traffic.
Not funny, I hope her parents don’t read this
I have way more confidence in Ava. Just don't get what the coaches see.
I'll give Jan time as it's unfair to go after her in year one.
This was another terrible game with some major puzzling issues.
1- I can't tolerate the stationary passing. We don't dribble to create angels, we just stand and everyone else moves off ball.
2- the entry pass to the post is fine but it can't be just one person to look for.
3- Not playing Ava Heiden is maddening. She is the best 5 on this team, no doubt. I think O'Grady works hard but she's just not close to Ava on both ends.
4- Guyton is now playing a lot more, as she should. I'm confused as to why Kylie keeps playing over McCabe.
5- Still too many girls watching as shots go up and not enough boxing out.
6- inbounds plays are just not productive enough. Against the press, sideline inbound plays, under the bucket.

I’m not sure why she didn’t play, but I’m assuming it’s the fact that she’s a highly touted Freshman and we assume if she played more she’d be better 🤷♂️ I haven’t seen anything that differentiates her from anyone else.
Let's just hope she doesn't think about the portal after the season.
Of course you don’t blame her. We are famous on this board for speculating players are mad or going to transfer or hate the team, because that’s what we want to believe. I mean honestly if we all had a dollar for every team leaving our sports programs university wide wed all have about a 100k
McCabe has no desire to shoot the ball. Does she need to be told the only reason she is in there is to shoot threes? Might as well start Guyton who has all the confidence to shoot threes and make them.
Guyton nothing but net in 4 free throws in 4th, doesn't get a screen to get the inbound. Failed on that play even though Hannah got it done.
The refs were absolute ass inside 5 minutes. Let NW do whatever they wanted on defense.
1st & 3rd quarter were rough, and the last 5 minutes played like Iowa has been playing the last 5 minutes. They had a 12 point lead with 3:10 to play.
McCabe off again.
AOG not doing much.
Heiden doesn't play.
Stuelke with untimely concentration issues.
Feuerbach still trying the impossible feed.
Stremlow forgetting to dribble to better angles.
But geesh, NW shooting pretty difficult 3s every time they needed it.
Iowa 18-20 free throws.
NW 13-20 free throws.

….Many of those passes to Hannah inside were mostly off cuts and dribble drives. AOG also utilized many passes to cutters as did other girls. It’s there, it’s maddening to me fans miss it…inconsistent sure, but it’s there…
2- the entry pass to the post is fine but it can't be just one person to look for.
….They overthrew HS & AOG both, and a couple others…
3- Not playing Ava Heiden is maddening. She is the best 5 on this team, no doubt. I think O'Grady works hard but she's just not close to Ava on both ends.
…it’s odd, but in no way is she currently the best. Doesn’t pass out of the post great, she’s timid and lacks conviction on the box…..
4- Guyton is now playing a lot more, as she should. I'm confused as to why Kylie keeps playing over McCabe.
….Shinmy told you during the game why she plays & McCabe is just as up & down with less size, less athleticism and poorer defense….
5- Still too many girls watching as shots go up and not enough boxing out.
….our rebounding is sketchy, but there is no way a “post” coach isn’t telling them to box out. We are inconsistent just like everything else….
6- inbounds plays are just not productive enough. Against the press, sideline inbound plays, under the bucket.
…..Yes, we are very poor at this and I do believe she can & needs to do a better job….
That's the new reality for every player on every team. Really not worth worrying about. Players will come and go.
