  1. Kentucky is pretty good at home but they have major issues on the road/neutral court. About to be 4-5 in those games and really should have a couple more losses.
  2. I think Kenpom (in particular) has been a pretty good judge of this team. '23 (#5), '24 (#25), '25 (#29). This seems about right over the last 3 years. I think this team has more upside than last year's team though.
  3. I think she’s gone regardless. ISU is mediocre and even women’s basketball players can make decent money with NIL in the context of a player like her caliber. I would be shocked if Crooks returns.
  4. Yeah a .500 sec team will make the 2nd weekend this year. Maybe even a couple in the .500 range. People can’t seem to process that being .500 in this conference makes you a fringe top 25 team.
  5. Vic is 63 and his best shot of winning a title is the next 2 or 3 years based on the roster he’s building. We are probably national title favorites next year if everyone returns that’s expected and we just add a decent big via the portal. That doesn’t even include the possibility of Chavez.
  6. I don't know if we're a top 25 team but in the last 4 games we've played #22 Missouri (won by 8), #13 A&M (won by 1), #23 Ole Miss on the road (lost by 3), LSU (won by 31). We are certainly playing like a top 25 caliber-ish team recently.
  7. Audi Crooks with these guards/wings next year is the type juju I'm praying for. She needs to leave Iowa State if she ever wants to win anything.
  8. Kent just doesn't seem like a good fit with this team. His game is all about cutting/off ball movement but we have a lot of guys that like to iso and play 1 v 1.
  9. The issue is if Harmon returns. They're playing Preston at the 2 when Harmon is the PG. That Harmon PG and Preston at the 2 lineup is creating a lot of mismatches in limited minutes. Other teams do not have a 2 guard that can stay in front of Preston on the wing when she gets isolated. I would love to see the +- with Harmon and Preston together. I bet it's insane.
  10. Preston is going to be so good. 1-1 from the field today with 4 assists in 10 minutes. She's also an insane on-ball defender. For such a spark plug type player, she's really under control and efficient. I know you have to take somebody like Chavez but I'm going to be sick if we scare Preston off. She's going to be an all-SEC type player in the near future.
  11. The thing we've learned on offense is that when teams sag in that zone it doesn't mean we have to force-feed Taylor Jones when the other team is doing everything they can to defend her. Find open spots in the middle of the zone or on the wing with Jak, Holle, and Booker. The way we would try to force the ball inside at times was maddening.
  12. I think we've won 18 in a row at Moody? We are not easy to beat at home.
  13. Preston again was very good today. Her minutes are not making much sense.
