*****IOWA vs The Slippery Rock University Game Thread*****

Gonna need more updates from you guys without a working radio and no BTN+
27-16. Backups (Ulis, Perkins, Kris) getting to the rim well but struggling to convert. Game moving a little too fast for Sandfort so far. Airballed a three and three a pass OOB. Big O in the game before Mulvey. If this game is any indication, either Bohannon or Keegan pretty much need to be in the game at all times

Bohannon and Keegan about to check back in. 7:15 in the 1st

This is a bug. I can't believe that BTN hasn't fixed this yet. Really poor service.
On the mobile app it gave the option to join live or start at the beginning, which is how I figured out that it might be starting at the beginning on the RokuTV where it doesn’t give that option

For those not watching: starters back in. Offense looks disjointed. Bohannon apparently has only attempted one shot so far. Settling on a lot of shots versus attacking the basket.

Liking what I’m seeing defensively in terms of activity tipping passes, blocking shots, stripping the ball. Defensive rebounding appears to be an issue
 
Pat looks like the best player on the floor
12 points 5 boards 1/2 from three. Several blocks as well it looked like

41-18 Hawks at halftime

Also think that Iowa is going to give teams a lot of fits with their length on the defensive end. Scoring droughts are likely
 
1 of 8 from 3

what i was worried about
I'm more worried about the defensive rebounding. The Hawks won't play a smaller team all year. Nunge used to come in and rectify that problem. With that said, the defense looks better overall tonight.
 
It hit me during the National Anthem that I haven’t been in CHA since Feb of 2020 (vs ILL - whiteout game). Completely forgot about no fans last year.

They announced in pregame, 600 and some odd days.
 
It will be the Pat and Keegan show this year. Joe T solid to spectacular distributing. Would like to see Tony playing with the Ones.
If Bohannon isn’t shooting or is shooting like he is tonight, then I agree. If Jordan’s aggressiveness in terms of looking for a shot has been a 3 tonight, it needs to be about an 8

The first team started off rebounding great. The Rock was bricking every shot and they were one and done after an Iowa reb.
 
Liked what I saw from Josh O the few minutes he was in their, going to need him in the big and against better teams, Keegan and Pat look the part. When the rotations shrink down will be interesting what Fran goes with.
