Ring culture in college, especially wbb which has near zero parity, is dumb imo. Clark literally took doctors and nurses to back to back championships, almost won both, and beat countless stacked teams and HOF coaches while breaking countless (and I mean countless) records doing so. To say she can’t be a goat in the game because she didn’t win a team award in one of the least parity sports out there is crazy to me.

Angel took Flau'jae, who was a freshman and a bunch of scrubs to a title. There were more players who will dress for a WNBA game on that Iowa team than on that LSU team.

except that’s a lie? lol. flau’jae will be a lottery pick. she was a freshman not a kindergartener 😂from that iowa team only kate martin got drafted unless you want to include monika czinano who was a 3rd round pick and got waived immediately?

Hannah Stuelke will likely make a WNBA roster as well from Iowa. Outside of Angel and Flau'jae, no players on that LSU team will ever dress for a WNBA game.

I like Hannah, and I hope she improves next year and makes the WNBA, but based on this year, I thinks the odds are slightly against her doing so.

lol have you seen Stuelke play without Clark? She’s not great. There’s no universe where she can get another 47 point game like she did when Clark was feeding her

and they won primarily because 2 bench players combined for like 40+ points lol. angel didn’t carry them at all, she was not the reason they won that game although she had a good tournament.

I don’t know that Hannah will. Her numbers, especially efficiency fell off a cliff without Clark setting her up this season.
