If twitter is any indication (it was for Brunelle), ND and Oregon have to be considered the favorites.

Maybe ISU has a chance if she suddenly decides she wants to be close to home. But she cites wanting to go "somewhere that wins" and ISU was 14-17 last year.

Interesting....

- Sabrina Ionescu graduates in Spring 2020, so there is an opening for a "can do everything" guard in Eugene around that time.
Of course, it's recently been brought to my attention that Ionescu will turn 22 in 2019, so theoretically she could declare for the WNBA 2019 draft after this season. Stay tuned.

- Iowa State. Bill Fennelly, who has been ISU coach forever (and still is a member of MM's coaching tree), seemingly vacillates between just under .500 and 18-13 or so. He's got a very good frosh coming in, Ashley Joens, a 6-footer who is on the u18 team with Anaya.
And I think another member of Caitlin's Iowa Attack team is slated for Ames. Still, a big hmmmm.

- As I said in my other post on this thread, time to take many visits to Iowa to see Caitlin and get her back to the Bend.

Born in 2019?

She has a tight handle for a zygote.

Turns 22 in 2019....

she'd be in some version of "Alien" if born in 2019!

by being born in 2019, she can make herself available for the draft and not that this appears to be talked about, you never know what her plans are. Remember, this is a player who waited until later than anyone to play for her ultimate college.
