You spend a lot of time talking about the players. The players are who they are. The way I see it, the only way this team can be REMOTELY competitive is if there are major coaching changes. And that starts with the lineup.
If on Friday night I see
1. A starting lineup of JoeT, Frederick...
Randy Peterson does nothing for the Register other than promote all things ISU. He doesn't offer news. He doesn't offer tempered, reasoned analysis. He only boosts the clones like he is on ISU's payroll. I remember him writing an article GUARANTEEING Lazard would get drafted. I remember him...
I'm still relatively young, I don't remember much before the Alford days. I can say definitively that yesterday was one of the single worst day of my life to be an iowa basketball fan. The Iowa legacy choosing an in-state rival, having to watch that gremlin Randy Peterson run up to him after the...
Likewise, whether we are talking DePaul or Duke, losing by 20 the entire game should not be seen as a moral victory.
DePaul was out of our class. If DePaul is an NCAA team, that means we are most certainly not one.
Very much agreed. He doesn't look right. He was literally walking around on some plays.
1. J-Bo needs to redshirt.
2. Nunge has shown nothing in competitive action. Right now he deserves 0 minutes.
3. Pat looks weak and is getting pushed around. I'm having visions of Michigan State forwards...
I saw the tweet I think you're referring too. The guy who said that has been wrong about many things Foster related in the past week.
I have been overreacting and crapping on Fran all day but cmon. Connor and Pat are decent basketball players (it's not like they are Uhl or Ellingson bad), and...
Honestly, this isn't about whether Foster ends up being the second coming or just a mediocre player. This is about perception.
Foster admitted he and his whole family are hawkeye fans. How do you lose him to your in-state rival? Fran is perceived as a hot-head who can't put players in the NBA...
Any AD worth his salt would have done 3 things already:
1. Fire Fran Mccaffery
2. Tell Kirk to get rid of Brian or he's next
3. Stop renewing the Cy-hawk football game.
Im not cherry picking. I listed some of the best players from the last several years. But I will keep listing. Monte Morris: Grand Rapids Michigan, Cam Lard: Natchitoches LA, Naz Long: CANADA, Nader: Skokie IL by way of Egypt. These are great players who weren't inner city athletes.
I...
Hold on. Are all of ISU's players from urban areas or are you just making an assumption because they are black? Tyrese Haliburton is from Oshkosh Wisconsin dude. Their best recruit last year is from Maize Kansas. Zion Griffin is from Darien Illinois which is a white, relatively affluent suburb...
I'll retort with this: ISU had the same issue. They hired two absolute stinkers of coaches in the 2000's who drove the program into the ground. Fred comes in and turns the program around in a few short years. And they recruit great athletes. If you can recruit to Ames, you can recruit to IC...
Lol we had a rebuilding year two years ago? How many times do we have to rebuild?
Barta needs to be gone. Idk how he kept his job after the lawsuit. Jamie Pollard, as much as i hate him, is just bullying Barta at this point.
