WBB loses to Butler tonight

[MIS01]

Too many turnovers again and horrid shooting. I expected some drop off after losing Mac, but they have fallen off a cliff.

Frustrating after the huge momentum built up over the past few seasons. IU can be one of the WBB powerhouses, we'll see how Teri learns/adjusts.

I think this team gets a lot better over the next 10 games. They have the core.

The issue is Moren was not able to translate that success into recruiting. IU's recruiting has been middle of the pack in conference at best and there have been no big time transfers since Parrish and she is struggling mightily without Holmes in the middle drawing the defenses attention.

Hmmmm... 10 game allowance... 1 for each year coaching... Does this apply to all coaches?

I went to the game, since I'm in Indy and it was so close. We looked like garbage. You would have thought they would come back strong after losing at home to Harvard. Going to be a long year.....

Yeah, but we've lost 2 "program leading, generational type" players in Grace and Mackenzie in the last 2 years. Syd, CMM and Garzon are all great players but haven't been vocal leaders. Was hoping one of them would step up or the transfers were, but I think that's probably what the team is suffering from more than anything. Frankly, it's what a lot of our men's teams have suffered from over the last 10 years. I think that's gonna be fixed with Rice this year, but it takes more than talent to make a great team. Something RMK and Painter have understood well, and I don't think our recent spate of men's coaches really have.

Agree with poster on recruiting. We have been a top program for several years and have not really parlayed that into better recuriting or portal wins. We were rolling and it would be a shame to take a big step back. That said, also agree that this team may figure it out. Moren has proven she can coach. She does need to recruit tougher and bigger players.
