- Well, that was a surprise. Monday afternoon, Lisa Bluder announced her retirement after 24 years as the head coach of the #Iowa women's basketball team. Just a half hour later, assistant Jan Jensen was named head coach.
Why Bluder decided to step down now, the advantages of promoting Jensen, what this means for the #Hawkeyes roster and more. Plus, Kate Martin made the opening day roster for the Las Vegas #Aces, a hint at what's next in the portal for MBB and recruits that could be next to commit in football.

Lisa Bluder is a great coach who set a high standard for ethical conduct and always carried herself with class. I have never heard anyone say a negative word about her as a person, and her players seem to have universally respected her. That is rare in a high profile job like that. She will be missed very much by all Iowa fans. She was so consistently good and all her teams had character and were fun to watch. I am sure Jan is a great coach in her own right, but I bet she learned a lot from Lisa.
Great Hawkeye show, guys!
Big fan of Adam’s cat. We need the cat’s take on things.
Her take on things is that she wants me to stop talking. So a true friend of the podcast. Ha.
Lisa talks about bball family, hubby is retired, logic tells us putting family first now is a winning decision. Plus, Jan needs a head coaching opportunity now.
Just letting you know, about every future recruit and current player liked/shared the posts. Seems like Iowa was going to get the Arkansas post, she had started following Lucy, but the news changed that.
Succession I am sure was brewing/discussed by Jan and Lisa for some time, greatest of friends. Happy traveling with hubby!!
Lisa actually invented Catlin ..letting catlin be catlin ..Thank you for letting us see the greatest player in college basketball 🏀 Want a coaching job with the Fever😂
Associate head coach would be my guess is how they got around advertising
I can’t take you seriously with a cat on your shoulders.
