I don't believe they have. I was quietly expecting that stuff to be released today but was wrong.

The conference didnāt do them until the second week of November last year as part of their Big Ten Women's Basketball Preview. I just checked the BTN schedule, and I donāt see it scheduled (yet).

But the season started later last year because of COVID. In 2019 the awards were released on the third Monday of October, fwiw.

| Hey that's like how I do my rankings! 5 Tiers: Conference Favotire, Tournament Teams, Bubble Teams, Darkhorses, and Longshots (my nice way of saying they don't have a chance). The only differences between yours and mine is I have Purdue in the bottom tier and Ohio State flip-flopped with Rutgers. |
I am not sure Kyle is going to help much, and the lack of any D1 coaching experience in Gearlds I think is going to really be evident the first 2-3 years. She only has 7 years NAIA coaching experience where she had a huge advantage of being the only full time WBB coach in NAIA most of her 7 years. Additionally to Gearlds lack of experience, Purdue is short staffed with no DoBO and no video coordinator, as both positions have been left vacant by the shake up after Versyp retired. Over half the starters are projected to be incoming transfers, half the coaching staff is brand new to D1 coaching, missing support staff, and lack of talent in general, I am hopeful Purdue can win more than 1 or 2 games in conference, but not optimistic that it will happen.

This is sad, I hadn't heard! Definitely a blow to the team. I know these two dealt with injuries a bit at the end of last season, too. A leg thing and then a concussion. They provided a lot on the defensive end from what I remember.

| University of Iowa womenās basketball sophomore Shateah Wetering suffered a season-ending torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) of her left knee in practice. The announcement came Thursday by P. Sue Beckwith, MD, head coach Lisa Bluder. |
That's the second ACL for Iowa this month. Wetering at a concussion early last season that set her back quite a bit, and now this. Sad for her.

Both kids have had injuries before and missed parts of seasons. Michigan State does seem to have depth at these particular positions especially with the arrival of I state superstar Dee Hagemann and the Swedish Kid Matilda Ekh.

I'm thinking this has a lot do to with her special needs child also. The risk of her coming and going would be a risk for both of them.

You're 100% right. I read a longer release where she specifically mentions this as pretty much THE reason.

Nebraska is my official "team to watch" in the Big Ten. They are looking fantastic against a decent (albeit young) Maine team.
They may have lost their 6'5'' defense anchor in the paint in Kate Cain, but their new frontcourt of stretch-4 types in Bourne, Cravens, and Stewart off the bench is an upgrade in terms of versatility and mobility.
In terms of backcourt, Jaz Shelley transferring from Oregon was huge for this team. Sam Haiby is still amazing -- I can see her playing her way on to 1st team All-Conference this year -- but she didn't get much help last year. Shelley already is bringing much more balance. She and Haiby are both very capable at facilitating as well as getting their own, and they already seem to have great chemistry with each other. The roster also has a legit shooter in Scoggin and an backup, in-state, freshman PG in Weidner who still looks a bit rough around the edges but you can see the potential.

Jaz was a great asset to OR; I'm glad for her that she's in a place where she can shine. OR's pond (of talent) was a bit deep for that duckling to break out.

The list of great players that turn out to not be good coaches is very long and distinguished.
