Jennie Baranczyk explains emotions of OU-Iowa game in NCAA Tournament
OU women's basketball coach Jennie Baranczyk says it's no longer personal facing her alma mater, since she faced Iowa nine times as the coach of Drake.
NCAA
The Oklahoma Sooners women's basketball team will face the Iowa Hawkeyes in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
Oklahoma defeated Florida Gulf Coast in the first round, while Iowa beat Murray State.
The winner of the game will advance to the Sweet Sixteen.
Raegan Beers scored 25 points and grabbed 18 rebounds as three-seeded Oklahoma beat No. 14-seed Florida-Gulf Coast, 81-58, in the first round of the NCAA Tournament on Saturday. Now the Sooners face one of the top programs in the country over the last few years.
The Sooners will play No. 6-seed Iowa after the Hawkeyes dispatched 11th-seeded Murray State, 92-57, earlier in the day from Lloyd Noble Arena.
OU had little problem with FGCU on Saturday and pulled away with a 16-point advantage in the fourth quarter. Skylar Vann nearly joined Beers in collecting a double-double with 24 points and nine rebounds. Native Iowan Sahara Williams had 10 rebounds and five assists, while Payton Verhulst joined Beers and Vann in double-figures, scoring 13 points.
In the Sooners win on Saturday, Beers, at 6-foot-4, was the star. She had her way against a much smaller FGCU. The Eagles' tallest starter was 5-9. Oklahoma outrebounded Florida Gulf Coast 72-35. The Sooners may not have that same advantage against an Iowa Hawkeyes team that boasts 6-foot-4 senior center Addison O'Grady.
Baranczyk played at Iowa from 2000-04, averaging 14.4 points and 6.8 rebounds over the course of her four-year career in Iowa City. She earned honorable mention All-Big Ten status in her final three seasons. Her first head coaching job was at Drake, located in Des Moines, from 2012-21 where she led the Bulldogs to three NCAA Tournaments before being hired to take over the Oklahoma women's basketball program in 2021.

Oklahoma 85, Iowa 77 : The Oklahoma Sooners have one of the deeper teams in the NCAA Women's Tournament. With Raegan Beers in the middle and with a veteran like Skylar Vann leading the way, the Sooners have more than enough fire power to take down the Hawkeyes. Though the Sooners have been a little loose with the basketball at times, Head Coach Jennie Baranczyk will have the team locked in to beat her former team. - John Williams, Sooners Wire
Prediction from Hawkeyes Wire's Scout Springgate
Iowa 81, Oklahoma 77: While Oklahoma gets another stellar performance from Beers and company, the Hawkeyes find a way to match the Sooners' offense with clutch scoring from Lucy Olsen, Hannah Stuelke, and Sydney Affolter. The game will ultimately come down to who capitalizes the most off crunch-time turnovers, which Iowa will be able to accomplish en route to an upset victory.- Springgate, Hawkeyes Wire

John Calipari Gets Major News on 7-Foot College Basketball Recruit
John Calipari Gets Major News on 7-Foot College Basketball Recruit originally appeared on Athlon Sports. John Calipari started a new chapter of his college basketball coaching career last season, serving as the head coach of the Arkansas Razorbacks. Advertisement After a legendary run with the Kentucky Wildcats from 2009 to 2024, Calipari took over another national brand in hopes of bringing a championship to the college basketball program. Last season at Arkansas, Calipari led the team to the NCAA Tournament, where they found unexpected success early in the postseason. They began the tournament with a win over Kansas, the preseason No. 1 team in the nation, and followed that with a victory over St. John's, the Big East champions, before losing to Texas 85-82 in round 16. After the season, Calipari and his staff set their eyes on bulking up the roster to make a deeper tournament run and compete for a national title. Advertisement On Thursday, the Razorbacks received a commitment from 7-foot center Elmir Dzafic. "NEWS: Bosnian center Elmir Dzafic has committed to Arkansas, agent Misko Raznatovic told ESPN. The 19-year-old 7-footer played for KK Bosna Sarajevo in the Adriatic League 2nd division this season," ESPN's draft analyst Jonathan Givony reported. Dzafic recently played in the U18 European Championship Division, where he averaged 13.2 points, 10.4 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game. During his time with KK Bosna in the Adriatic League 2nd Division, Dzafic posted 2.2 points and 1.2 rebounds per game. Arkansas Razorbacks head coach John Calipari pulls forward Zvonimir Ivisic (44).Steve Roberts-Imagn Images Last season, the Arkansas Razorbacks posted a 22-14 record, reaching the regional semifinals in the NCAA Tournament for the second time in three years. Advertisement As they head into a new year, the Razorbacks will be courting one of the most talented rosters in the country, including former five-star prospect Kartner Knox. They're also bringing in one of the most talented transfers in the country, Malique Ewin from Florida State, and a top point guard in Darius Acuff.

Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart have nothing but praise for their former Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau
The Knicks' decision to fire Tom Thibodeau didn't necessarily come as a shock to the players. When a team comes up short, moves are usually made. They knew that. Advertisement 'I think we had a really good year. I think it didn't end how we wanted it to end. Sometimes when the season doesn't end how you want it, or how you expected it to, there's always changes,' Josh Hart said on the latest episode of his and Jalen Brunson's 'The Roommates Show' podcast. 'Whether that's coaches, players. Thibs was my sixth coach in eight years. 'The NBA coaching profession is tough. Whenever you don't finish how you wanted or expected, there's always gonna be changes. That one is a tough one. I just think there should be nothing but praise for him and his time in New York.' Other than brief social media posts, both gave their first public comments on the firing. And they had nothing but praise for Thibodeau's role in elevating their stature in the league. Advertisement Brunson, in particular, has known Thibodeau nearly his entire life. He was a young kid when his father, Rick, played for the Knicks for two seasons from 1998-2000. Thibodeau was a Knicks assistant at the time. And Rick Brunson later served as an assistant on Thibodeau's staff with both the Bulls and Timberwolves before reuniting again on the Knicks. Thibodeau, quite literally, saw Brunson grow up. 3 Jalen Brunson addressed coach Tom Thibodeau's firing by the Knicks after their latest playoff exit. Roomates Show/YouTube After the Knicks were eliminated in six games by the Pacers in the conference finals, Brunson was incredulous when asked if Thibodeau was the right man to take the Knicks forward. Advertisement 'Is that a real question right now? You just asked me if I believe he's the right guy,' Brunson said at the time. 'Yes. Come on.' Brunson rose from a role player on the Mavericks to a superstar with the Knicks under Thibodeau. 3 nicks guard Josh Hart #3 speaks with head coach Tom Thibodeau. Charles Wenzelberg / New York Post 'This is my first firing,' Brunson said on the show. 'Obviously, I've known him my entire life. But I remember having conversations and moments with him in eighth grade when we moved to Chicago and just to see where we are now, he helped me become a two-time All-Star, two-time All-NBA. The things he's done for me, individually, I'm so grateful for. Just because he had the confidence in me that I knew I had, but like it's great to see someone push it, push me to be better. Obviously, I had my dad and he believes in me more than anyone. Him and my mom believe in me more than anyone. Advertisement 'To have Thibs to do what he did for my career, I'm just so grateful and thankful for. Not enough things can be said about what he's meant to myself, my career.' Hart went from a journeyman to a key part of the Knicks' core under Thibodeau. He had also been one of Thibodeau's vocal supporters. 'The landscape of the team, the organization, has changed obviously with Thibs being gone,' Hart said. 'We wanted to give a shout out to Thibs, especially for myself. He helped make me into the player that I am. I had a lot of instability in the early part of my career, and he kind of gave me that stability and that opportunity to flourish as a player in the league, as a starter in the league. I'm always gonna be forever grateful for him. 3 Josh Hart on his 'The Roommates Show' podcast he hosts with Knicks teammate Jalen Brunson. Roomates Show/YouTube 'Obviously, this is always a tough part of the NBA, because you grow relationships not just on the court, but off the court and personal relationships. I always got love for him. It's always tough when there is a coaching change.' Thibodeau led the Knicks to their first Eastern Conference finals appearance in 25 years. He led them to the postseason in four of his five seasons in charge and improved their win total year-over-year all but one season. Advertisement 'Especially now, people have their own perceptions of certain things, or the end of the season or whatever it is, but he took that job when the Knicks were just buns, 20 wins,' Hart said. 'He got that job and was there for five years, made the playoffs four years, first Eastern Conference finals for 25 years, and he helped Knicks basketball go back into the top level in the league. He should get a lot of credit for the foundation that he built.' 'I agree,' Brunson added. '100 percent.'
