WBB: General All-NCAA Thread - Not Team Cyclones Stuff

As a Joens replacement, I'd take her in a heartbeat.
But to @BoxsterCy 's point, we wouldn't want her to be a black hole of offense. That sometimes happened with Ashley, and it was a common complaint here when it did. But we do have that big vacant spot offensively that many teams do not (we lost 74% of our scoring), and at least in that aspect she could be a great fit for both sides. Hopefully if she came she'd improve her 3pt shooting and FT shooting -- when you get to the line nearly as much as Ashley, you really ought to shoot better than 65% from the line.

To be clear, I do not expect her to come here, but that 5% chance we have is still worth thinking about.
 
Despite all the negative comments I can easily believe this might be true. Excellent return on investment, would easily pay for itself. Anything can happen in the tourney, but would likely position them well for natty. Iowa has a lot of $, especially compared to us. Per the wrestling gurus on this board they are paying $100k+ for wrestlers.
There is no “return on investment” in women’s basketball or wrestling.
 
Damn, some people are really full of themselves.
Iowa fans have been quite confident on social media that all the top transfers are lining up to play with CC. Many were confident they would get Betts, Morrow, or even VanLith.

As I've said, they must take someone who doesn't want the spotlight because CC is not giving that up anytime soon. They took Molly Davis last year from Central Michigan. She led CMU in scoring before leaving and is a role player at Iowa.


Led the team in scoring (18.6 ppg), steals (1.3 spg), assists (4.7 apg) and free throws made (94), and ranked second in 3-pointers made (52) as a junior in 2022

They needed to look for someone like the post we got but she probably wasn’t high profile enough for them.

That too, but I was actually thinking the player was very full of herself when I posted that.
 
Would be a good replacement for Warnock at Iowa.

Would seem so. Brings rebounding and defense, both needs for them if they want another deep NCAA run or Big Ten title (that league will be tough at the top again next year). Thing is the portal doesn't seem to be Bluder's jam. She's in the middle of a good run and transfers have had little role in it.

Agree that it's not her thing but if you have a team that's close to winning it all you probably need to do it.

Agree that she should be trying and for sure she is. Just saying it has not been her thing although bringing in Molly Davis as a reserve guard was a good "sixth man" move for them this past season. They are also an oddity in that they haven't had many gals transfer out either. Almost everyone has had good players leave, heck most teams seem to lose a starter(s) these days.

Would seem to be a good landing spot for anyone that moves well without the ball at forward. If you can run and catch the ball Clark will throw it to you. And post, but almost everyone wants a good post. I just think they could use someone like the gal from BYU as much or more than a decent post, not sure post will be awful for them even without an addition. People thought they would suck at post after Gustafson graduated.

*** Damn, living in Big Ten country and having the PR they've had the last couple of years has left me with a somewhat shocking general knowledge of their team! LOL.
 

Coach Flanery's view about the transfer portal.

Interesting but a little self-serving for the reporter trying to make his point to not note that a critical player and starter on the Creighton Elite Eight run in 2021-22 was Lauren Jensen, a transfer from Iowa.
