    And it will overshadow how terribly Iowa played those last few possessions with a four point lead.

    No idea whether Bluder/Iowa’s staff drew it up, but running a little into a big on a high screen to draw an offensive foul is coaching 101, especially in girls/women’s ball, where the bigs are 2x as big as the littles. Makes the “foul” look twice as bad.

    With the game on the line and holding the ball, the World’s Greatest Shooter Ever In History….passed.

    And he hit on the foul right off the bat.

    Geno should summon the Jim Calhoun/Ryan Gomes press conference when asked about Caitlin Clark: "I took Emeka Okafor and Caron Butler, they're not bad!"

    If I were Geno, I'd open the presser by asking what was the spread on the game??

    Congrats to Iowa. I thought they were out of it early but they stuck around and got it.

    The ref really spoiled the end of that game. Just a garbage call.

    Lost in all of those will be the late buckets Iowa's Kate Martin made. Goodness.

    It was the correct call. If the play happened in the second quarter. But then? Nobody was bleeding. Gotta let that possession play out.

    And Geno, how bout coaching your roster of McDonald’s All-Americans to put a body on someone on a free throw?

    Clark’s pass wasn’t the problem. She found Stuelke with a path to the basket. It was Stuelke’s pass that shouldn’t have happened.
