    We have enough to win 24 to 27 games and that’s great..But we need that One Piece to get us to 30 wins and from there we’ll have believers keeping us sustainable…So I’m just hoping for one Ms Maryam Dauda…lol

    We do have enough players to win 20 plus games but we need the ONE to help us get to 30 plus wins.What we have could get us 24 to 27 and we know that only takes you so far..

    It seemed like a perfect fit for Janae Kent and Alyssa Latham to come back home state to get glory and a NIL bag,but something about coming homeseems like it dont work for our flagship school..

    I would say last year because of an early injury to Cook,an unsettled adjustment with our 4and 5 caused the shooting and defense to be kinda disjointed..Im glad we got size and most of the women have pedigree.Two of the women coming in have some extended familiarity with Coach Green(Wallace and...

    I don’t feel like this is an exaggeration.We are a senior laden team with a two year 20win average and postseason title..I think these seniors wanna go out with a bang..Maybe even a parade???Lol..oh man my orange koolaid cup is full today ..lol

    How bout we beat UCLA or Ohio State and and come out 13-5 and 3-4 seed for adeptly handling a tough B1G schedule…This year is our springboard to becoming upper echelons mainstay

    Im wondering if the West Coast teams can handle the constant physicality of the B1G nightly..Whoever comes out of our league like the SEC will be battle tested..I think USC will be at the top also but they will be surprised that playing a Nebraska and Minnesota is nothing like Washington State...

    Because of our returning players I think we should be a better team than Iowa..Problem for the league is we picked up 3 perennially good to great women’s teams pushing down on the rest of the lower tier teams,but NOT IS…lol

    My biggest concern is scoring when we NEED it..We have bucket getters but I do worry about backcourt size..But at the same time our backcourt is the main reason for our optimism I think..

    The B1G is gonna be a monster with 6 or 7 teams in the big dance and we are going to be a prominent one.

    Uh Bostic is basically the no.1 rebounder in the league and just kinda started stepping out of the paint really..Really she is the standard bearer of hustle and grind at this program..Really in so many ways she might be the best pro prospect,unless Berry lives up to AA status..This team will...

    I have seen that South Carolina is heavy on Maryam Dauda but I’m just thinking our roster and potential would be an attraction..I think we just need one “Star” to break the ice for us.. I’m sure hoping that the B1G is able give our new members rude invites to our conference..One of them may be...

    I’m also wondering if there are any ‘25 recruits on the radar nearing commitment…I’m sure if we win which I think will win big we will see big presence,but what is going on now besides my biggest hopeful getting offers from South Carolina and NIL deals in Iowa?
