    OMG! Did not expect a dominant performance against a good team.

    OMG! That second quarter was awesome!

    *** WBB vs. #24 Oklahoma (6 p.m.) ***

    Jennie Baranczyk get her team up and ready - she’s beaten us with lesser teams which seem to have played harder. This is a winnable game which would go a long way to determining what kind of March we have.

    2023-24 ISU WBB Season Thread

    Might be worth considering whether this young team might be better served by a run through the NIT, though I hope we finish strong for a top 40 seed in the dance.

    Twister Sister Summary - I’ve got nothing…

    Right you are - bracket updated to 10-8 with losses to KSU (2x), UT and OU. The fan in me thinks we have the talent to win one or more of those, but . . .

    Twister Sister Summary - I’ve got nothing…

    We lost the last three road games by a total of 13 points. Each coulda/shoulda been a win. We're at 38 in the NET - bubble territory. At this point mred's bracket generator projects us to finish in 5th at 12-6.

    Twister Sister Summary - that sound wasn't a toilet flushing...it was Tech threes

    I'm not coach smart, but if we're committed to play zone, it seems we were in a 2-3 which gave up the trey from their favorite spots. Would a 3-2 help with that? In previous games, hadn't we played a lot of man?

    ISU's Hannah Belanger nets six 3s, scores 2,000th career point in 69-61 win over Kansas

    Not long ago, and even now, pretty good players take pride in scoring 1,000 point in a career. 2,000 is real good for a long time.

    Volleyball recruiting

    She is probably the best of those leaving Nebraska. Cook recruits really well - no slouches on his bench. A 6'5" middle blocker would be a good add.

    Twister Sister Summary - It rained threes

    Crooks hit 90% of her shots and earns conference honors. As a long time State Farm policy holder, I hope they consider adding her to their payroll.

    Is anyone emerging as a point guard - in the Emily mold?

    Does CycloneTV have any content? I’m still paying but getting no video or audio.

    2023-24 ISU WBB Season Thread

    We're anguishing about not renewing. We make it to very few games, but when I go I want good seats and as a perpetual optimist, this could be the year. Wondering if a pair of Iowa tix in middle of Sec 133 would fund much of the season price.

    Strength and Conditioning

    New director of women's basketball strength and conditioning - didn't know Cassandra had left. The team had developed a lean body type under her.

    UPDATE: Tennis Team going to the Elite 8

    ISU tennis deserves it's own forum.

    Cyclones add post transfer Isnelle Natabou

    Natabou buys Crooks the time she needs to work on her game and conditioning. I'm hoping Crooks is in the Courtney Paris mold and will be very effective in her minutes.

    Cyclones add post transfer Isnelle Natabou

    Issy and Izzy?

    Cyclones add post transfer Isnelle Natabou

    Bristow, Brown and Crooks may anchor the Frontline of a future contender, but Natabou looks ready from day one to bridge the gap. Ryan will blow the lid off assist records. I'm as excited as I was last year at this time.
