    WBB: ISU at UNI 6:30 ESPN+

    The announcer said that last year UNI beat Drake, Iowa, & ISU all three. I'd forgot about that. That was quite impressive. By the way- ESPN+ does not work very well with average or slow speed internet. It takes a good high speed provider to really bring it in good. You may have a service...

    WBB: ISU at UNI 6:30 ESPN+

    Seems that a lot of you folks have technical difficulties up there with ESPN+. Works like a charm down here. Must be the curvature of the earth.

    WBB: ISU at UNI 6:30 ESPN+

    Kind of a dry methodical game so far with the exception of Donarskis highlights. Wouldn't even be in the game without her. I'd say if Joens comes in the second half and vents her frustrations for having to set out the first one it should be a Cyclone win. UNI wasn't able to put it away with...

    WBB: Miscellaneous Thread for 2020-21 Season

    I suspect it will be like the NBA bubble event. I doubt that a single fan will be allowed in. But if they are, yes I would take the whole thing in from beginning to end. By then maybe they will have all the coaches and players vaccinated and they won't be afraid of them testing positive.

    BU vs UT MBB cancelled tomorrow

    Contact tracing is the culprit now more than covid itself. If you're around somebody that's been around somebody that shook hands with somebody who tested positive yesterday the whole kit and kaboodle has to close down for a week or so. Baylor canceled their Non Conference game with Houston...

    The Mother of all Collapses

    Just a few days ago quite a few were somewhat disappointed in the collapse the Clones had in the 3rd quarter against Iowa. It was a 17/18 (?) point lead going into the 4th quarter and the girls had completely controlled their destiny for 3 quarters and I think everyone felt sure a victory was...

    Best Sign Yet

    Hard to say at this point. Definitely not looking as strong as most of the past teams in the last few years. They have actually looked somewhat dysfunctional at times so far. A lot of that is due to a new starting lineup that is not yet accustomed to each other, plus a loss of several tune up...

    Best Sign Yet

    What I saw in the game today is the best sign of a decent competitive team that I have seen all year. And that sign is, Ashley Joens was not the top scorer. When she scores 30+ and everybody else chips in 2 to 4 points it's hard to beat good teams that way. Lonarski stepped up big time today...

    WBB: ISU vs NDSU noon ESPN+

    Donarski looking better after every game. I've said even before the season started that she should easily win FOY in the Big 12.

    Dumbest Purchase You’ve Made

    I made several dumb purchases in my 20's. A boat, a horse, a motor home. God what a fool I was.

    WBB: Cyclones at Iowa tonight at 6:30 p.m.

    Well Rats. I wasn't feeling all that well tonight so I lay down after the 3rd quarter. I figured a 17 point lead was fairly safe. Got up about 45 minutes later and planned on writing a congratulations to the girls for taking down a good opponent on the road. So much for that. Geezus!!!!

    WBB: Iowa State Opens Big 12 Play At TCU 6:30 ESPN+

    I'm really not surprised at the outcome of this game. TCU is nothing at all like last year. Almost completely rebuilding.

    WBB: ISU @ South Dakota State 2pm

    For whatever it's worth. TCU played the same team today (UCA) that Baylor played Wednesday. Baylor won by 45 and played a very sloppy offensive game. TCU won by 17. I think TCU & ISU are both very similar this year as they both start a lot of new players. Should be a good match up. Joens...

    WBB: ISU @ South Dakota State 2pm

    For a while there I thought Donarski might score enough to pull this out. Still hope, but time is becoming the biggest enemy.

    WBB: ISU @ South Dakota State 2pm

    Donarski finally scores another bucket. Frosh need to grow up quick. Ashleys going to have saddle sores after this one.

    WBB: ISU @ South Dakota State 2pm

    Joens needs some help from the others. Right now it's looking like a one trick pony.

    WBB: Miscellaneous Thread for 2020-21 Season

    South Carolina is the real deal. They put 5 complete players on the floor. This will be a real test. Arkansas is also looking really good this year. I won't be surprised if they upset Baylor in a few days. BU is a little dysfunctional right now. Unless Didi comes back and the rest of the...

    WBB: Season tip-off at noon today at Hilton on ESPN+

    Freshmen playing like typical freshmen. But I can see the potential. Just working out their jitters. Ryan will be a good PG.
