The baseless speculation in this thread needs to stop. Show at least a little class.
Here's the deal, recruits and recruits parents know Bill is hard on these kids. They know that when they committ. Trisha Nesbitt, who is from Ames and family is big ISU fans went to Iowa because she knew Bill was tough and didn't want to be coached that way. I respect that. These kids know what they are getting into.
I called this last season when BF's dislike for Fernstrom was obviously apparent. He even made fun of her attitude in a post game comment. Then this season with his obviously favoritism towards Burkhall was demonstrated. This makes life much tougher for the squad and our chances of not making the big dance a real possibility. I wish Bre weill and hope she lands with a coach that will appreciate her more than obviously our staff did.
I have not seen any favoritism towards Mere this season. Where have you seen it? Mere was outplaying Bry earlier this season and BF commented that she should probably be starting but he never started her. Bry was averaging 21 minutes a game - that is up from last year. Mere gets pulled awfully quick after making a mistake.
I don't think you're getting it. Relationships that the ladies have with each other.
So, back to less titillating speculation. I wonder if she is enrolling somewhere this semester or staying at ISU and transferring this summer or just sitting out the semester both academically and athletically.
What year was she?
Went to Iowa State roster and she is already removed and not in 14-15 roster either

Think they got a little too much deleting of links but bio is still on web.

My guess is she sits this semester out academically, since she'd have to pay for it (and at out-of-state rates).
She'll be able to play starting 2nd semester next year at her new school, although like Bowe she may redshirt the whole season. She can either play 2nd half of 16-17 plus all of 17-18, or all of both 17-18 and 18-19. I'm assuming that, since she hasn't played or practiced since the semester started, she is not considered to be part of the team this semester.
This is an isu AD thing. They purge the records basically immediately.
On on a side note, this makes two years in a row that my daughter went to isu camp and 2 in a row that here group leader leaves.
Minnesota starts school a week later so do not be surprised to see her there within the week. If that is the case guessing may have been a little whispering being done to make the arrangements before she notified the staff. If that was the case she has had one foot out the door for some time.
