Both Kris and Connor were in foul trouble. Who has been coming in for those guys? Oh, yeah Patrick.
They showed a close-up of it when coming back from a timeout - w/ Benetti trying to turn it into a controversy - but even then, it was suuuper hard to tell if his toe was on the line or not.
Uhh, when the fair weather fans show up. I'm there every game. But, it was a good crowd minus the syphilitic Illini fans in attendance.
I am a little surprised that anyone in the Iowa AD was clever enough to think of having the Boys & Girls Club go out onto the court. Several of the people in the Illini huddle turned and clapped. They know that was an embarrassment.
Exactly. Just how bad is that Nebraska loss now? At least tOSU gave us match up problems.
I get it, we aren't an elite program, and Fran has too many strokes on the court. But, the team is enjoyable to watch. Who walked into CHA today thinking Tony Perkins would step up with 30+ points? Damn, but that was fun today.
Neither one bothers me. I just couldn't believe he didn't know the ten second rule.
During the Holiday Bowl at San Diego in 2019 I had a guy in front of me who I felt like I may have words with eventually. We ended up having a really good conversation. He couldn't believe all the fans Iowa had. Asked all kinds of questions about Iowa. I hated when he left at end of third quarter.
Not one that weak. I've seen the replay 3 times on BTN now, and not once is that a foul you call under the hoop, where multiple guys have a shot at the ball. Just effing weak.
Nobody knows going in-when the coaches actually make the decisions. Still, when this is your response to a hard fought win against a bitter and old rival, why do you watch?
lol, this was only 1 of several takes, please feel free to review all of the after game initial takes.
We are what we are. Run and gun. This is particularly small team and the boys need to get hot. When a couple of guys are hot we usually win. When they're not, we don't. Its a very fun kind of ball to watch. We've dropped north of 80 on Rutgers #1 on D and the Cheatin' Illini, #6 defense.
Agreed - what a pathetic comment he/she/it made - I like your response
You weren't just stating facts you were making a silly point. Patrick played maybe 6-8 minutes more than Josh. That is your complaint. Your point is that Patrick only plays because his father is the coach.
Yes they did, and even showed his foot. Bardo made a comment about if he wore size 15's he'd have been over the line.....
OSU had not played like that before Iowa and has not played like that since.
I haven't had too many issues with Fran's substitution patterns this year with the exception of his 2 foul rule but today had some head scratchers. In the first half he felt compelled to insert Dix and Bowen together pulling Perk and Ulis at the same time. In the second half he leaves Dix on the bench and inserts Patrick for some extended minutes.
I think you and I are seeing the same things and agreement on all of your points.
Cmac’s presence on the floor is a net positive so I’m okay if he’s in there the majority of the time. It’s not like he’s jacking up bricks or turning the ball over while attempting to drive the lane.
Cmac is definitely tough and normally a decent defender. I'll give you that, but he was abused by Mayer and both he and Pmac were dominated physically down low on the boards. 1 rebound in 43 minutes between the 2 ain't gonna cut it.
I’m in 100% agreement,
All that really matters to me anymore is iowas net ranking.
