Women's Basketball vs Nebraska

[Vern Pain]

Probably the best game I've seen them play this season. Turnovers have been an issue all year, kept it to 8 this game vs 25 assists. Really defended the entire floor very well. Fun game to be at.

Nebraska has been in and out of the top 25 this year. Their record is pretty much the same as IU's. Have to say they didn't possess the athleticism that can cause IU to speed up.and make mistakes. Still, I'll take it.

It's interesting, the difference in the support for Teri's program vs Mike's. If this was year 2 for Woodson, I think he'd have more supporters. Teri has shown unity and identity with what she brings to the floor. I get why it's so easy to root for her team.

They did a great job of not letting Markowski impact the game.

I watched Nebraska struggle to beat Purdue last week and then today, as you mentioned, not a very athletic team. It’s only the second time I’ve watched them play this year, but I’m just not very impressed at all.

I’m not sure Markowski has improved at all since her freshman year.

Indiana just received a commitment from Zoe Jackson, 6-4 Australian center for 2026.

There are some highlights of her on the internet. She's appears to be similar to Faith Wiseman. A legit 6'4". I don't think the two of them are quick enough to play at the same time. She might be a little better ballhandler than Wiseman. Perhaps a little more agile. They can both use their left hands around the basket. Neither can jump. I could see the two of them splitting the center position in 2026/27.

That's not something I was hoping to hear. While the sample size is small, what I've seen from Wiseman suggests that coach needs to try to get another Striplin type for next year. Lily Meister will still be here so, provided we get lucky in the portal, Faith's minutes will still be few and far between next year. If Zoe = Faith, she won't add much in her freshman year.

I hope I'm wrong but.at this point, Faith bears little resemblance to a P4 post player.
