5fouls Posted August 6, 2023 Report Share Posted August 6, 2023 (edited) Playing some exhibition games right now. Sara Scalia injured yesterday. Hopefully nothing serious. https://www.si.com/college/indiana/basketball/indiana-defeats-patras-all-stars-101-36-scalia-leaves-game-with-injury Edited November 10, 2023 by 5fouls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btownqb Posted August 6, 2023 Report Share Posted August 6, 2023 FWIW-- I think we have a serious chance to be better this year, than last.. Bargesser already appears to be a completely different player, Currie Jelks transfer is huge, she adds different elements to our team... Continued development from the rest of last season's FR-- Garzon, Sandvik (who's playing very well in Europe right now), and Lilly Meister. Julianna LaMendola, Lenee Beaumont are FR this season both seem to be integrated already with their mins overseas. I haven't mentioned the 3 All Conf performers (Parrish, Scalia, and CMM) and the All American (Holmes). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maedhros Posted August 6, 2023 Report Share Posted August 6, 2023 Someone let us know Scalia's status as soon as you hear it. I'm real excited for this team, depth could be a real difference over last season, when it was largely a rotation of just six. That depth gets tested quick if Scalia's out for significant time.

The video seemed very... non significant. We'll see. I think we will see another level to SS game this season, more than just a spot up shooter (but she's a lethal one).

Reacher Posted August 6, 2023 Report Share Posted August 6, 2023 I like Scalia as she doesn't get the hype the others do but quietly does her job 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some admiration for her.. willing to go from Option A at Minnesota (and many schools).. to option D, E, or F sometimes at IU last year, but trading the shot attempts/points in for winning, imo says plenty about an athlete. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iuthruandthru Posted September 26, 2023 Report Share Posted September 26, 2023 I would love to know if Guyton’s daughter was not recruited by IU or if she was not interested in IU. I mean Iowa is a great program but why no pursuit of someone with Hoosier legend in her blood. Maybe it was type of player or scheme, just found it odd.

I would guess, unless they reached out to IU, that CTM didn’t even think about it. Prob didn’t cross paths. Can’t recruit or see everybody.

Maybe she doesn’t fit what CTM is looking for, or too many kids at her spot….. there could be numerous reasons. If she’s a top 50 kid, there has to be a reason. Maybe she wasn’t interested in IU. 🤷🏻♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each kid is going to charge their own both but it seems like there wasn’t even a chance. Just found it odd. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is the case would love to know why. Offensive fit? Mutual? Didn’t fit with current and future team/commits at her position? We likely won’t ever know but again it just seems like a no brainer to at least kick the tires. Then again we got home state kids heading to UConn so maybe it’s still just as good as IU has been they won’t win them all against some of these historically elite schools.

I believe and that is mostly a guess.... from reading some stuff different places/putting 2+2 together. 🤷♂️ Edited September 27, 2023 by btownqb 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure I have that dialed up correctly. I would also highly question any label/ranking that's given to girls HS bball players. And I don't just mean that in Guytons case. Even our own. Don't buy it until you see them play. They aren't good at ranking the boys, I feel they're even worse at the girls.
