*** 2024-2025 Iowa women’s basketball season thread ***

[Stomper15]

Iowa has one of the best atmospheres in women's college basketball and that's something that can rattle opposing squads. Decibel levels reaching nearly 110 and an unforgettable environment for Iowa Olsen and company.

"It was so loud in there," Olsen said with a smile. "We were just talking about it, we were trying to switch the screen and I replied "I can't hear the screen!"

"The very first exhibition game, her eyes were [wide] like, 'oh my gosh, this is amazing'," Jensen said. "I said, 'Wait until the game that the fans aren't going to give up their tickets for. You're not going to believe what it's like.' And when we got to this moment tonight — that fourth quarter, when we finally turned the corner, boy. That Carver crowd was there."

I think Mallegni has the potential to be the best of any of them / highest ceiling, but she has the biggest adjustment to the college game.

Yeah it’s too fast for her right now Once she adjusts she could be the best of the bunch

well that’s just mean-spirited!

[Hawk24]

That’s how you close out a game.

 

[Revolver]

Fuerbach should play limited minutes.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Iowa’s press offense is non-existant

 

[hawkeyealum]

Fuerbach should play limited minutes.

Maybe she can go pro in something other than sports.

 

[CamelTones]

They should try to turn it over less.

 

[Stomper15]

A lot of bad passes to Beef.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

They should try to turn it over less.

fewer*

 

[Stomper15]

13 turnovers and not even half time.

 

[Revolver]

fewer*

They should try to turn it over “fewer”? God you are an ass, Wade.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

He's playing into a joke. Just ignore him.

Point stands.

 

[douglasbader]

Hannah Stuelke might be a fucking idiot. It’s insane they let her inbound the ball. She’s going to lose the game for them.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Fuerbach should play limited minutes.

It's not too late to edit this

 

[Hawk&Balls]

It's not too late to edit this

Or this

 

[Revolver]

That is just her deal. She hits a few good shots then does stupid shit all the time. I’d much rather see Guyton getting minutes.

 

[douglasbader]

Will be impressed if they hang on, but they screwed up bad and likely lose this. They got in the bonus with 3+ minutes to go and a 9 point lead in the 3rd and proceeded to take bad forced jumpers.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

That is just her deal. She hits a few good shots then does stupid shit all the time. I’d much rather see Guyton getting minutes.

Right. You hit a few shots don’t all of a sudden think you’re gonna start making other plays. Catch and shoot and defend. That’s it .

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Need to go zone

 

[Revolver]

Iowa’s press offense is non-existant

Stuelke should not be a go to in this scenario. They have two bigs and a guard trying to break a press. Figure it the fuck out.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Closing out, our of control

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Stuelke should not be a go to in this scenario. They have two bigs and a guard trying to break a press. Figure it the fuck out.

It’s on jensen. They have one look. Throw away from Olsen then try to hit her cutting through. Easily can be taken away.

 

[The Incredible Hawk]

Complete implosion

 

[The Incredible Hawk]

Up 7 and just went to complete shit

 

[Herbie2]

O'Grady the press breaker.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Go zone for the love of god

 

[douglasbader]

Jan is a good coach, but it her press break strategy is horrible.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

They’re just putting their head down and driving. Go. Zone.

 

[The Incredible Hawk]

They are so terrible are press break. Petras-like pants shitting.

 

[douglasbader]

It’s the Tennessee game all over again. Players just freaking out for no reason on press.

 

[Revolver]

It’s on jensen. They have one look. Throw away from Olsen then try to hit her cutting through. Easily can be taken away.

It is completely on Jensen. Every team should press them every opportunity they have.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

They are so terrible are press break. Petras-like pants shitting.

It’s a little of that yes but the press offense is awful.

 

[douglasbader]

Finally went zone 5 min too late

 

[RecreationalGynecologist]

It’s on jensen. They have one look. Throw away from Olsen then try to hit her cutting through. Easily can be taken away.

Need more production from the front court too. Would open up things for Olsen. Gotta be able to get to those balld thrown into the post.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I got the privilege of sitting by Brian Joens today. He looks homeless and at least ten years older than he is.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Why are you at a truckstop

 

[BuffettHawk]

Why are you at a truckstop

His side hustle.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Just another relaxing weekend at All Iowa Assault.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Finally went zone 5 min too late

For one possession then went man again.

 

[Will McCoy]

He posted something eerily similar about you on CycloneFanatic.

[Pinehawk]

Retiring Clark's jersey on the night they host USC and JuJu Watkins. That's going to be a tough ticket to get.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Just 700 per ticket to get in

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Niko will buy 10

 

[nolookpass]

hopefully Jan will spend some time with AZ and Legend this week so she can find a decent press break.
