We're going to be an incredibly young basketball team, but sometimes that's fun, too. Sometimes they don't know what they're in for, so it's kind of fun to watch them go through that.

She is going to be a very, very good basketball player.

This summer I was feeling really good about what kind of basketball team that we could create,

She has been a great addition to our basketball team. We were thrilled when we were able to sign Kristi Smith. We watched her play for a long time and we had our eye on her a long time. We felt she was going to be a tremendous player. So we were thrilled when we were able so secure her as an Iowa Hawkeye. We kind of felt like we stole her.

They're very deep, that's a strength of their basketball team. But I'm not going to use that as an excuse. We didn't foul anybody out tonight, and I don't think it hurt us.

She is a scoring point guard. She is almost, not quite, as fast as [Iowa guard] Crystal Smith. It's fun to have that dimension out on the floor.
