The boys showed that new-found toughness again today, against both Purdue and the three blind mice running around and tooting their whistles like third-grade bullies.
It's pretty clear by now that there is no more Mr. Nice Guy in an Iowa basketball uni. I love me some tough-minded Hawkeyes.
As for Ellingson, those who thought he would be another Oglesby may have been proved wrong today. The kid is only a freshman, and he's never been a liability. But today, in some tough circumstances, he helped put the dagger in Purdue. With that confidence, look out the rest of the season and the rest of his career. The kid really can shoot, but like the rest of the team, he also knows when not to pull the trigger.
Awesome performance by the Iowa lads. Now let's show the Terps what a Big Ten Championship team looks like up close and personal.
