If I'm CKG, I'm taking ND off the schedule (believe it was just a 2 year agreement anyways) and making sure my Thanksgiving trip isn't against a top tier team. UK is locked in for another year.. I don't believe we'll pay to get out of that one. Rack up the non-conference wins like Minnesota, big ten is tough enough.

I'd be pretty disappointed if CKG brings in more than 2 transfers.. assuming our other players stay. I don't think we'll have this mass exodus of players.. it's not like we have some superstars waiting to burst if they join a new team.. still alot of benefits to being on a power 2 team compared to a mid major or Big east school. Winning isn't everything to players, although us fans would like it to be haha.

Are Harper and Smith still on the team? I realize this is women’s hoops and most don’t care but what happened to them?

With CKG as coach, 12 wins is about our ceiling. A .500 record doesn't seem likely ever under Gearlds. We are likely going to lose 2-4 players transferring out after this fiasco of a season unless there is a coaching change, so CKG will pick up the crack pipe once again and bring in 4-5 light talent portal kids yet again. Later, rinse, repeat.

Watched last night and failed to see any kind of offensive scheme. No one is cutting to the middle. All 5 players standing on the perimeter. In two periods we failed to score 10 points. Some of these players have talent but there seems to be no plan on how to use it. If this team wins another game this season, I will be surprised. Let me mention Ava Learn again, who transferred to Murray state and is averaging double figures and at least 7 double doubles. One that I miss!!

Your comment is nothing but a childish, uninformed tantrum. Our Dept of Defense needs to prepare for the next war, not the last one.

I watched for 10 minutes, what a disaster and waste of time this was, Purdue looks like a poor high school team. I’ll be honest, no one looked good, next year will be just as bad if we’re expecting the returning girls to just all of a sudden get a ton better, they might improve a little, won’t be enough to win more than 4-5 Big Ten games. Time for a change, if not it just shows Purdue is out on women’s hoops. It will be rinse and repeat transfer wise, Coach will bring in 3-4 players from smaller schools that averaged 8-10 points on their teams, that won’t get you better.

Haha hilarious that in two of the wins…it took a career game from a freshman, which he promptly disappeared into the sun after that and even in the nba and another win had the local kid fro Lafayette come off the bench after shooting 28% all year from 3 and hit some big shots while Purdue didn’t play its best.

The one game that he did coach well was TJDs senior year at IU. I’ll give him that. But the other two, meh.

Yea 3-3 isn't exactly something for him to hang his hat on. Hell Mike Davis killed Purdue in his time but it meant nothing.

And I’m still waiting for Obama to get rid of the lobbyist as he said. That’s why I was suckered in to voting for him.

Trump has done more in 6 days than your boy Biden did in 4 years. He’s been to North Carolina meet with helping them. Went to California to meet with Newsom over the fires. Signed executive orders to get the illegal criminals out of the country. Many many many more things he’s done in 6 days and you said he’s not governing the US.

Sounds like you're OK with Trump lying to the American public, if he does other stuff that you like.

Sit the portal players, let the freshmen and sophomores play. They've had their chances and they're not providing the spark or the leadership they were expected (hoped?) to bring. We all knew the portal acquisitions were head scratchers, so no one is surprised by the results. At this point, who cares if the 40 point losses become 50 point losses?

Gearlds, who boasted she had never had a losing season, and stated she "was born to coach Purdue" has a mountain to climb to get out of this mess. She's going to have to sit through YEARS of seasons just like this based on the recruiting for 25 and 26. I know Gordon and Reynolds are highly touted (but they're not top 20), and this is a downward spiral that will be very hard for her to turn around.

If she gets years after this mess, there won't be anything left of this program to rebuild from. It will be a total wreck requiring someone like Dunn several years just to get back competitive.

Michael, dreaming is still free, so dream on. For better or for worse, the way Purdue hires coaches CKG is it for at least the next 3 seasons. WBB is at best revenue neutral so not much incentive for the brass to make a move right now like they had to make with football. I think it is in Gearlds best interest to concentrate on developing the young players these next 3 seasons to see if she can turn the corner because her portal strategy is not working.

Dreaming is free, so is believing in the tooth fairy, but no one does once they are a rational person.

This is CKGs first year with a team of her construction. This is who she is a a coach. She has not shown any hints that she and her staff can develop talent that they get. Recruiting is in fact her only strength as a coach I can see. Roster construction is an F, player development is an F, game day coaching is a D at best, offensive and defensive schemes are an F. She is unlikely to develop those skills while trying to coach up a terrible team of her own construction.

That's the golden question, do we have anyone coming in to help us? Avery Gordon and Kira Reynolds are solid players, I think the Dounwstra girl is actually a bit of a hidden gem, but to expect those 3 to turn around this program? Seems unlikely.

What are reasonable expectations for next season.. .500 record? NCAA tourney? WNIT?

Without knowing the full roster(next season) and seeing this year, I'd take a .500 record, give or take a few, and just more competitive in games. Show some player development.

I hope ckg doesn’t go to portal after the season and brings 4 or 5 seniors that are not good enough to move up in the standings. All that does is impede the development of the young talent while we have yet another losing season.
Click to expand...
Agreed, it feels like she will grab 1 at least.. I thought I read somewhere CKG wanted another HS recruit guard, couldn't land one, so they were just going to wait until the portal opens.

If I had to guess, CKG takes another guard and forward from the portal.

It was nice to see the underclassmen get most of the minutes in the 4th last night.

Can Ohio St. get in? Oregon 16-4 already has 3 BT home losses! Is this league really that top heavy? Locks are Purdue, Michigan St., Michigan, Illinois, Maryland(1 road win), Wisconsin, Oregon and UCLA!

Maryland has 2 road wins. And Oregon will def get in.

If Ohio state wins a few more, they’ll be in.
