ISU is going to do to us what we did to them in football.

We're gonna hold them to 42 points? I'll take it!

So again where is he projected as a first round pick?

After a quick google search.. Most places have him as an early second rounder, though. I think that's probably about right.

A little more context:

Fort Wayne beat Indiana.
Indiana beat Kansas and North Carolina.
Therefore, Ft. Wayne would beat Kansas and North Carolina.
Or not. LOL

Have you seen the list that proves Coe College is better than Ohio State in football?

 

[Kurt Warner]

The hawks made uno look like the golden state Warriors, I personally think it was a fluke and iowa normally would beat them 80% of the time.

I would care, you're pretty much locked into an 8-9 seed at best now unless you go something like 13-5 or better in the B12..

We'll see how it goes, I guess.

 

[Lone Clone]

If they win..like I said if they go 13-5 or so in conference, they'll be fine. If they put up another 9-9/10-8 type B12 record, they have a pretty low ceiling since their RPI is so low at this point.

I guess you'll have to explain this to me. Last year they only had one "good" win in the non-conference -- at Cincinnati. They lost on a neutral court to UNI, which is a worse loss than we've been talking about this year. They went 10-8 in the conference. They were ranked #22 in the AP poll. They got a #4 seed.

You were top 20 in the RPI going into B12 play last year. You had three good wins. At home against an RPI top 25 Iowa and on the road against a just outside the top 50 Cincy and a neutral site win against a top 50 Colorado. You also had a lot of decent wins Chattanooga, Va Tech, NDSU, Buffalo, Illinois, these are all top 150 RPI teams. And only three bad wins (Chicago St, Coppin St, Arkansas Pine Bluff). Plus you had a good road game against A&M to boost your RPI later in the year.

You'll be lucky to be top 80 going into B12 play this year. This season you have just a single good win, Miami at a neutral site, which is less 'good" than any of the three you had last year. You also have less decent wins, Indiana St., UNO, and maybe Iowa although we might not even make it to the category this year. And you have a lot of bad wins, Mt St Mary's, Drake, Savannah St, Citadel, Miss Valley St, teams that drag you down just by playing them. You're also matched up against a bad Vandy team that might not even be a top 100 win in the SEC challenge.

Those decent win type games is where smart teams can really boost their RPI, play a lot of teams in the 125-200 range and avoid any 300+ type teams. Kansas has this down to an art, they've played one 300+ RPI team in the last five years and instead they play teams like Layfette, Kent St., Montana, UC-Irvine, Towson, Iona, teams that boost your RPI and that good teams will still beat 90% of the time.

Thanks. That makes sense.

has fran ever beaten uni or isu?

 

[EastIowaHawk]

Iowa State is going to face-front Pemsl like a mirror and cover Jok like a condom. I'd love to see the Hawkeyes win, but their only chance of avoiding a complete blowout is if the other players just go off on their shooting. Our only hope is for Moss, Baer, Bohannon, Wagner, Uhl and the young guards to shoot lights out, because Cordell will probably be held to about 5 and Jok to maybe 15.

 

[Myvue]

Morris is projected late first early second.

What ever pick the Bulls have as they need another point guard, one they can count on.

Iowa is 2-2 in the Fran era and 1-5 against Iowa State.
