    3 incoming freshmen are All American nominees

    ESPN has Ediger 39th, O’Grady 92nd, both 4*. Affolter’s not ranked In the top 100. I agree that the closest to PT next year would be Ediger, though they list her as a post. But then, they talk up her face up game combined with range to the 3. That’d almost make her a forward, someone like...

    Iowa on BTN at 3:00

    Martin and Taiwo are the most improved players this year. Taiwo was only getting garbage minutes early on And Martin had 19 points and 11 assists today.

    Czinano Big 10 POW Clark Big 10 FOW

    I just saw Iowa BB tweet her happy bd a few weeks ago, so I’m assuming she’s 19. i suppose you’re right and she just might go overseas early, but I think she’ll stay.

    Czinano Big 10 POW Clark Big 10 FOW

    Well, if Sabrina Ionescu spent 4 years at Oregon, I’m assuming Clark will stay 4 years. Can women even leave early? I mean, they have to play overseas......the pay in the WNBA isn’t a lot. Why not stay? edit: I just looked up Ionescu’s salary. It’s $68k. As the #1 pick in the draft.

    Hawkeyes on espn2 at 1:00

    We need more athletic bigs. Czinano is really good at what she does, but she can’t do it alone, and she doesn’t have a ton of quickness. Goodman may grow into the role, but she’s got a lot of work to do. We need a big or two that can compete with the quicker big players we saw the last two games.

    Top-Ranked Iowa Wrestling Destroys Illinois

    I get it, but it’s like soccer to me. It’s slow, and I can appreciate the technical ‘goodness’ of what Warner did yesterday just like I can appreciate a good soccer match. But I prefer the raw aggression of the lower weight classes. Oh, and I’d say the same thing about watching Murin and...

    Top-Ranked Iowa Wrestling Destroys Illinois

    Told my wife i need to start watching right at the top of the hour or I’d miss Lee’s pin. That’s a fantastic 1-2-3 lineup, and all three could get to the last match of the year. I will admit to hate watching Warner wrestle. Lot of talent there, and he’ll do well in the tourney, but I’d like...

    Nebraska....

    Someone on the Husker board said they should go after a transfer, but another guy replied that there’s no way a transfer is coming in to compete for a job with a 3-year starter, and I think that’s correct.

    Nebraska....

    What I don’t get is why Luke is so set on being a QB if that’s the case. He’s not accurate enough with his throws, and he’s not big enough to be a Jordan Lynch guy who runs the ball 25 times a game and occasionally hits a wide open receiver when the defense sells out to stop the run. He’s got...

    Nebraska....

    Basically, the reaction on the Husker board seems to be meh. Which is surprising, ‘cause I thought Luke was one of their bigger talents. But maybe he wants to be a QB.

    Sous Vide

    Can’t remember which chef I was watching (I love to cook/bake/bbq) - think it was Thomas Keller - who really emphasized getting a pro sealer to do sous vide well. He had a couple reasons: 1. If you want to marinate in addition to just cook, getting a good seal is important b/c the vacuum...

    Sous Vide

    I’ve also been considering one for a long time but haven‘t pulled the trigger. I’m pretty used to reverse searing steaks and chops, and we pan roast fish, so no need there, either. Plus, I don’t have a vacuum sealer, so I’d have to pick up one of those, too. If you get one, let us know...

    Go Get Lovie Smith As An Assistant Right Now...

    Not sure that makes any sense. Illinois isn’t a step up from Minny.

    Go Get Lovie Smith As An Assistant Right Now...

    Lovie’s kid played for Lake Forest HS in the northern Chicago burbs at the same time my son was playing for another school in the same conference. Lovie came to a few of the area 7-7 no pad workouts in the summer. Talking to some of the LF parents, I never heard a bad comment from them about...
