*****Illinois vs Iowa Game Thread*****

[Chewback]

Once again, whoever gets the ball is throwing up shit. Connor’s shot looks terrible today. Get some shooters in the game

Not sure we have any.

 

[markfromj]

Our offense is hand it to Kris and watch him try to make something happen.

BS.

 

[Slim45]

Frans in game coaching=dogshit. No timeout. No subs. Just let em play and go from up 1 to down 8. No biggie

 

[HawkRugged17]

I have to put up with the woman next to me yelling YES! after every Illinois basket.

 

[BVHawkeye]

Zero rebounds for Rebraca. Not good. Everyone is standing around on the boards!

 

[DewHawk]

half=court offense is terrible and only one shooter in the game does not work

 

[83Hawk]

Looks like the Hawks are going down today, unless they start hitting their shots and playing defense.

 

[Franisdaman]

now a media time out

lovely

Murray missed 2 good looks.

 

[Chishawk1425]

Corn even in winter. Dumb

 

[longliveCS40]

Zero rebounds for Rebraca. Not good. Everyone is standing around on the boards!

Illinois inside size is really neutralizing Rebraca.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Cold shooting.... Get to the hoop. See if they'll call some fouls.

Need Illinois to cool off

 

[CarterHall]

Shots not falling. Get Sandfort back in

Not sure he can.

 

[Franisdaman]

@Moral line 2 please, Moral line 2

 

[HawkRose]

I just don’t get not starting Sandfort. Fran becomes almost superstitious about starters

 

[Chewback]

Zero rebounds for Rebraca. Not good. Everyone is standing around on the boards!

We're getting killed on the boards.

 

[Franisdaman]

Not sure he can.

is he ok?

 

[IaHawks03]

Everytime Iowa shoots, everyone runs the other way and nobody attempts to grab a rebound

 

[Chishawk1425]

Key to the 2nd half:

Attack the rim and get fouled and

REBOUND REBOUND REBOUND REBOUND REBOUND!!!!

Hasn't happened and down 8 for a reason

 

[KcTo]

Zero rebounds for Rebraca. Not good. Everyone is standing around on the boards!

IOWA down 23-11 on boards,
1 shot/trip
no 2nd chance points

 

[CarterHall]

is he ok?

Hurt his shoulder in the first half. Not sure how serious.

 

[kwik44]

Yes but I'd rather not.

Don't like where this is headed.

 

[Mohawkeye]

Illinois inside size is really neutralizing Rebraca.

Got to go at them. Ulis need to drive more. Force the issue and make them foul.

 

[Franisdaman]

so

many

commercials

You could have said that before the tip.

 

[longliveCS40]

Hurt his shoulder in the first half. Not sure how serious.

He came back in right before half shop I'm hoping he can go.

 

[DewHawk]

Fran says " this is not in our plan" and continues watching the game

 

[Hawksfor3]

Regroup and get the job done.

 

[HawkRose]

He’s out there

 

[Legs94]

Frans in game coaching=dogshit. No timeout. No subs. Just let em play and go from up 1 to down 8. No biggie

We stick with Fran because he’s better than the last dogshit hire. But he is not a good coach. 13 years, less than half the time we makes it to the NCAA tournament, 0 Sweet 16s. The very definition of mediocre.

 

[KcTo]

Hurt his shoulder in the first half. Not sure how serious.

if shoulder has any feeling at all Sandfort will be shooting

 

[Franisdaman]

Iowa 6-7 from the line

 

[kwik44]

Frans in game coaching=dogshit. No timeout. No subs. Just let em play and go from up 1 to down 8. No biggie

He doesn't seen to stop the bleeding well. Instead of down 8, there was opportune time to stop it at 4 or 6.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Steps by 42. Not called, fortunately didn't finish

 

[HawkRugged17]

Iowa's matchup zone with a good possesion.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Good stop and oh so close on the Perk floater.

 

[Chishawk1425]

Got a stop and drew a foul. Rinse and repeat over and over please

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Keep driving Perkins! Collecting fouls and points

 

[longliveCS40]

Tony doing a good job getting into the lane.

 

[kwik44]

Jess Settles does a nice job of not showing bias.

Stephen Bardo does not.
