****Iowa @ Ohio St Game Thread****

[NevadaHawk]

We needed that.

 

[TDJ7]

sup Keegan

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Keegan Murray is good at basketball.

 

[Franisdaman]

gorgeous pass by connor to Keegan

 

[HawkRugged17]

Murray 2 Murray for 3!

 

[QChawks]

How can a team be so consistently bad at defense?!!!!

lack of athletes

 

[HawkLogic]

pmac plays poorly, bring in CMAC.

Keegan and Kris are the two best players....play Kris.

 

[DougERot]

Hawk killer Ahrens in the game

 

[TDJ7]

Rebraca and CMac done after this year or do they have another year yet?

 

[HawkRugged17]

Good find my Cmac to Keegan for strong move at the hoop for 2 and the FT!

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

There's some effort on D

 

[TRHawkeye145]

Keegan Murray is good at basketball.

Just ok...

 

[NevadaHawk]

Phantom foul on Joe T.

 

[unoHawkeye]

Good D Hawks!

Edit: x2!

 

[Franisdaman]

murray twins playing the D

 

[Bro D]

Thank GOD Connor is playing

 

[CarterHall]

 

[HawkRugged17]

Good defensive possession for Iowa ... shot clock violation.

 

[TRHawkeye145]

Nice comeback to answer the run

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Nice D again! What's this?

 

[Buffalo43]

Nice comeback

 

[Hawksfor3]

Love Joe T! Defense!

 

[Franisdaman]

i like this lineup

playing great D

They all know I’d they play defense they may get a foul, or 2, then they are banished to rot on the bench.

see Perkins trying to rim protect, know has 2 fouls, now out of game

 

[drh1150]

I like this OSU lineup without Liddell

 

[NevadaHawk]

Good defense on that sequence.

 

[Mohawkeye]

Finally, some defensive intensity!

 

[HawkLogic]

If we could just combine the McCaffrey kids talents into one we’d have one heck of a player. PMac needs Connor’s toughness and effort

CMAC inherited Papa's jump shot, PMAC babied and just likes to play offense.

 

[HawkRugged17]

And another shot clock violation ... Iowa defense stepping up. Liddell not in the game.

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Nice D again! What's this?

A pretty good lineup.

 

[birthhawk]

****ing JoeT comes in and the D gets better. Amazing. Also, props to CMac. As one poster said earlier, combine PMac and CMac and get a great player.

 

[HawkLogic]

Finally, some defensive intensity!

Baby pmac to bench, both Murrays and JoeT.... cmac at least plays defense.

 

[kzoohawk80]

Defense dramatically improves when Joe T is out there. Why's he play so little?

 

[Bulldogs1974]

Watch uhlis come in for joe here.

 

[Franisdaman]

 

[iahawks10]

Phantom foul on Rebraca

FIFY

 

[RocknRollface]

Good thing Fran has Bohannon starting at pg to fix the slow starts.

Thats working out wonderfully.

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Also, Connor is playing really well at the moment. Of course he needs to at least be a threat to score but he has been a plus since coming in.

 

[HawkBall23]

Why can't Iowa play like they have for the last couple minutes, all the time???

They looked like s* getting down 11, and then after the timeout by Fran, Keegan took over on the offensive end and the team forced a couple shot-clock violations on the D end - after allowing like 16 straight points in the paint.

So inconsistent, unless they allow a timeout by Fran to lay into them to let a fire be lit under their butts to play like we all know them capable of being.

he’s just a small guy.
