    2024-25 Roster/Rotation Additions

    I hope everyone can contribute and the coaching staff utilizes the roster to keep everyone fresh and minimize injury risks. Nick Saban used to tell his running backs that it benefited them not having to play heavy minutes because (1) they avoid injury and (2) they will be fresher every time they...

    2024-25 Roster/Rotation Additions

    Yeah! Hope this roster gives BF different options and varieties! Would be nice to have a deep bench that can be fully utilized - having 10 instead of 8 players on rotation without significant drop in performance

    2024-25 Roster/Rotation Additions

    I would argue it is harder to replace Belanger than Bristow. I would be happy with someone as good as Belanger. Upgrade would definitely huge. Belanger was so valuable in everything she did for us, not just scoring points.

    Financial Aid Advice

    Yup. Although I am not in a trade profession, I can appreciate the profession. I told the students: IT, HR, finance and accounting jobs can be outsourced abroad but no one can call a service center in India or Philippines or Slovakia saying “I need help to install my sump pump / garbage...

    Financial Aid Advice

    Used to run an e-Mentoring Program at one of my previous places where we engaged HS students via email in 7 weeks (e-mails are specifically assigned per week based on topics such as how you decided your majors, why you chose the field, how did you end up there, key for success in the workplace...

    Where is Steele Jantz?

    Interesting insights that the offense meeting with Mensa was quite tense as Mensa felt the pressure to prove himself and make things work. Mensa was worried that he would be fired. Same with Messingham.

    WBB: General All-NCAA Thread - Not Team Cyclones Stuff

    CC was a perfect storm: she is an Iowa girl. The fanbase can relate to her. The support will still be good but for how long, no one knows. Even with Megan Gustafson, the support wasn't that great and Goose was really a likeable player.

    Financial Aid Advice

    Yup, that's part of growing up. We want our kids to grow and learn and sometimes being away, being alone, away by themselves help their development. This is worth its own thread but the stuffs you mentioned are so valuable. Added with other things, like getting along with roommates (esp if the...

    Financial Aid Advice

    Depending on the major and your financial situation. Everyone is different. There are reasons people want to go to Carleton College over U of Minnesota for example. As long as you and your daughter have all the information and consider different aspects, I am sure you guys will make a good decision.

    Same at the U of M here. If you take the Cc route better make sure the classes are transferrable, otherwise it will negate the purpose

    2024-25 Roster/Rotation Additions

    But times have changed. In the past you would lose eligibility when transferring except you moved down to lower division. It was a factor in the past. Now you don’t lose that eligibility. I think it also depends on what these players want to be. In the past we had Shellie Mossman (Haluska)...

    2024-25 Roster/Rotation Additions

    If that's true, not really surprising. It seems that moving to Big Sky to Big 12 is a huge step for her. That just shows how much I (and some other posters) truly appreciated and admired Hannah Belanger moving up from Division 2 to a Big 12 school..

    Time for a Real Discussion About Caitlin Clark

    it was a great achievement, no doubt. Listen, the majority of WBB fans here appreciate the achievements. It doesn't mean that we need to like CC and her antics. Like some of other posters here mentioned, there were some players whom we can "like" because they didn't whine and ask for calls...

    And she actually signalled her team not to shoot the ball in the dying seconds and let the clock expire.
