Coach Sides needs to listen to this interview, she could learn a lot from this great lady and coach! Lisa Bluder is nothing but CLASS! Thank you Lisa for the last 40 years!
With zero championships
@@SimonaHallOh that's right. No championships. Take aaaaaaaall her other amazing accomplishments away. She's OBVIOUSLY a crap coach. 🙄 *sigh* This 'Ain't Got No Rings' mantra is getting soooo old with you people.
@@mjohnson5167 What's so great and you lose two times in the national championship games. They're no moral wins 0-2 in the championship games facts.
Excellent interview with Iowa’s Coach Bluder. Sally Jenkins is obviously well-prepared and hard-hitting, while being appreciative and respectful of the game and the coach. As an Iowa alum, I may be biased, but as a lifelong Stanford fan, I have to say I’m so impressed with Coach Bluder’s approach to coaching - not Xs and Os, but teaching the game of basketball and letting the players learn to read the flow and make on-the-spot decisions. Celebrating Assists almost more than Goals. May be why an offense-forward team is such a joy to watch.
Great interview. It was a joy to watch Lisa coach. The team culture she created was beautiful.
Thank you Lisa Bluder for everything you did on and off the court! You are a wise and classy person!
Lisa Bluder, the first woman associated in a major way with basketball to actually hold the WNBA accountable for it's lack of fans. It's about damn time someone finally said it. Props to coach.
Love Lisa Bluder!!!
She made a great point about how you handle the locker room when there are players that make more than other players.
I hope the Fever coach has a few conversations with this awesome coach.
That was an awesome interview! New to the following of woman's B-Ball but a lifetime of playing sports. I was really interested in the coaching. As I know how important it is. I can say after watching this interview with LB that I am very impressed, and can see how she brought these young woman to our attention.
Lisa for fever coach
It's great to hear Lisa's honest appraisal of women's bball. She's a straight shooter. Awesome interview!
What a great Coach and mentor. She is so right about the whole situation and great timing.
We love you, Lisa Bluder.. Coach ne3d to coach CC again in Indiana
Wisely and honestly stated. I totally respect Lisa! She truly is a skilled coach and a woman of worth and dignity.
The WNBA should be hiring this woman! She should be a coach of the coaches. Her insight and leadership skills are what is missing in the WNBA.
Listening to Lisa reminded me of coach John Wooden. He taught basketball philosophy, just like Phil Jackson of The Bulls/Lakers Most coaches just each style/plays, not how to THINK the game.
Will miss her on the sidelines. Lots of wisdom in her coaching!
Bring this coach to the Fever!!!
A great interview!
Lisa Bluder 💛🖤!!
We could use Lisa as a head coach for the fever
That was great! She is an amazing coach and an amazing person. Very smart! Excellent video.
They let DT play her rookie year it’s nothing but political, and now we find out they got players on the team that are injured
Breanna Stewart played in her rookie year too….
@@Naydeen53 after just winning 4 national championships in college and 4 MVP's. DT had just won 3 national championships as well.
@@SimonaHall she didn't win those alone... it was a team effort every time.
@@sjones7584 it's always a team effort until it comes too Caitlin. Then it's Caitlin this Caitlin that. Can't have it both ways. Bottom line she didn't earn and spot. Their are better players than Caitlin that didn't make it as well. Good grief!
@@SimonaHallCC22 could've won the nattys in UConn and USC too with her stats, which was way higher than Diana T.'s stats in college. Iowa was never expected to defeat them, but still CC22 took Iowa to the nattys. Just use your common sense.
❤ Lisa !
I like her thoughts on NIL and her time and Iowa
next coach of the FEVER!!! We all know it.
From your lips to God's ears!
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE ❤❤❤❤❤
Love Lisa Bluder! ❤ Love Iowa Hawkeyes! ❤. Hate the WNBA
Already wishing for Sides to be replaced, it's unbearable. Go Bluder! Make it happen soon.
Class act!
Agreed with her
The reason the WNBA is so physical is because they don’t have the speed or footwork to play defense without fouling
The referees gave up long ago, if the refs called clean games there would be 120 free throws a game
Wisdom 🫶
great interview Lisa will be missed by all i agree with players getting paid its a job now pay taxes pay into SS and Medicare
In my fantasy (or wish), A very wealthy individual will create or buy a WNBA team, hire Lisa Bluder as head after securing CC and Boston. Hire an enforcer and a forward that can catch passes and a backup guard. An unbeatable team in my head.
The way Caitlin is being treated does make people sour on the WNBA.
COME BACK, SAVE WBB from the WNBA!
A two time loser in championship games facts and called South Carolina player's thugs not impressed
She never called them thugs - she would have used the same analogy for any difficult team. Bluder is awesome.
@@dschrute8 In the books she's a two time loser in championship games facts
@@bigbds222 this is the dumbest discussion point when you don’t take any context into consideration. Also, she was Naismith athlete of the year TWICE. 🤣 but yeah sure she’s a loser
@@bigbds222That "loser" has already won 3 golds for Team USA and MVP as well in the int'l stage for U-19 and U-16. Facts. Have you even won anything significant? How about calling Steph Curry, Lebron or Kobe Bryant a loser coz they never won a natty?
@@Joshua-me1wi She's nowhere near there talent she's just a good long range shooter. No college championship good teams with a good strong defender exposes her game like Carrington of Connecticut. Now against Atlanta Dream she'll score 20pts or more they're not a good defensive team. I just love too see the ladies of the WNBA stand together and play defense against. Her delusional fans have disrespected the WNBA players so bad.
Lisa what are you waiting for, the Fever need you
