Folks use some logic. Sex and Gender are two different things. Sex designation is based on biology. Gender is based on human behavior. When a child is born there is scientific method of determining sex, only the child's sex is on the birth certificate; for now.

When the pairings came out it was somewhat universal that Iowa, as the 2nd number one seed, got the short straw in terms of difficulty. The Portland 4 region where Texas was the number one seed proved to be the weakest of the 4 regions. Texas by far had the easiest path to the elite 8. Based on...

You are right Edwards would have a clear path to the basket if Beuckers catches the ball and passes to Edwards.

Indiana came very close to upsetting SC. SC is a better offensive team this year. Depth won't be a problem for them. Iowa has to be on top of their game offensively. The 3 point shot % has to be at 40% for Iowa. Getting points in the paint is going to tough.

I haven't looked deeply into the stats for CT. I can only go by what little I watched of them. Size wise they are impressive, but that often turns out to be a problem against shorter teams that can run. I do think that is a huge advantage for Iowa as speed and endurance will be a major factor...

People close to ISU believe you are right.

It is an April Fools Day Fake story.

No, Just have been to Bourbon St a couple of time and watching PG movies.

She dresses like a New Orleans Madam.

In the 2023 game a J. Carson went 5 of 6 from the 3pt line and 2 of 2 from inside the arc, 22points. An L. Williams scored 20 pts and a Morris scored 21. That is 63 pts LSU has to replace. These 2024 players and averages are the replacements, Morrow (16.5), Van Lith (11.7) and M Williams (14.4)...

Universities should go to the contract employee model. There is no point trying to keep the student athlete with a scholarship model. Iowa probably could pay much more than a Big East school. Fill the seats and the money pays the freight.

Here is the roster as of 3-29-2024. At this point the scholarship roster is mostly sophomores (4) and freshman (2). There are really only 2 upper class men; Dix and Payton Sandfort with significant playing time. It is going to be another season of boys against men in 24/25.

I'm still upset with the tactics that West Virginia's coach employed on Monday night. He harmed to the growth of women's basketball by turning it into a turnover foul fest on the national stage. He is another Bob Huggins coach from West Virginia. As an older sport fan I remember a number of...

Too much effort reading between the lines in this thread. Earlier in the season Patrick took two weeks off. Dix took his place and Patrick no longer started. Prior to that pause it appeared Patrick was dealing with some internal issues. I'm surprised he made the decision to go in the portal. It...

The problem is far greater than the NIL. You can't dismiss the transfer portal influencing competition. To go along with the aforementioned is conference realignment. Let's not forget how ineffective the NCAA is. In economic terms college revenue generating sports are under going "creative...

WV physical play didn't pay in the end. Iowa made 20 of 26 free throws off their called fouls. I think the refs were lenient with what WV got away with.

Her drive to put Iowa up two and the and one free throw stopped the run by WV. She is the one Iowa player that isn't afraid to mix it up.

After the second round here is a quick count of how the major conferences did: Big East, 6 - 0 Big 10, 6 - 4 SEC, 4 -6 Big 12, 8 - 6 PAC, 4 -2 ACC, 8 - 0 With all the conference member changes it is hard to keep track of what conference some teams are in. I believe the above are nearly...

After the first round here is a quick count of how the major conferences did: Big East, 3 - 0 Big 10, 4 - 2 SEC, 3 -5 Big 12, 6 - 3 PAC, 3 - 0 ACC, 4 - 0 There are 8 games in round 2 where a member of one conference listed above faces another member from the above list. The Big Ten has a NC...

Rob, the contrast is immense as you point out. I don't think any athletic department has featured such a chasm. Leave it to Iowa. I would really like Iowa sports writers to explore revenue sports being turned over by universities to minor league teams in exchange for naming right and profits...
