*****Iowa vs Utah Game Thread*****

[Jimmy McGill]

Hard drive in by Dix

I see what you did there

 

[HawkBall23]

Even IF the Hawks miraculously find a way to win this game, VCU is gonna give them all they want - even in IC.

 

[Rambler Hawk]

This team reminds me of Alfords last year. Just terrible. Outside of Freeman and Dix don’t see any future building blocks.

Agreed, not sure why some are so excited about next season…we have a yet another lanky kid and an unknown Canadian on the way…

 

[Hawkfan_08]

They played teams that actually cared and tried on the defensive end.

Yeah, but none of them could score the pac 12 was bad.

 

[Rose bowl or bust]

Of course we give up a WIDE OPEN 3 after that little run

 

[millah_22]

Fran is going to give a really good halftime speech.

Prob won't be as good as this classic

 

[QuadCityHawkeye1976]

48 points given up.

 

[hawkirugged17]

Nice finish by Harding. Hawks down 12 at half.

 

[hawkeye_wx]

Iowa stepped it up a bit toward the end of the half, but, for f sake, you'll never win a damn game if you are giving up three points every time down the court. Just play some halfway decent defense and you are in this game.

 

[Franisdaman]

what a move by Harding!

damn

 

[HawkBall23]

Zero points in first ~3 minutes and yet end up with 48 points at halftime.


lulz Fran and Hawks. keep playing that non-D

 

[NI hawk]

WLast time I went to Utah we lost to Arkansas and I got drunk with a bunch of Hippies at the Dead Goat bar in SLC. It was in the basement of some alley building...

Hawks blew like a 9 point halftime lead.
Had beat Arkansas during season

 

[Buffalo43]

48 points given up.

Bau

 

[NevadaHawk]

Nice reverse Brock

 

[DougFHawkeye]

JFC. Are you actually going to talk to me tonight or are we just gonna lay next to one another on this fvcking hammock and post on this goddamn message board? Answer me mother fvcker!

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Even IF the Hawks miraculously find a way to win this game, VCU is gonna give them all they want - even in IC.

Well, everyone will at this point in any tournament.

 

[skydog0784]

Sadly, it looks like PMac looks the most engaged on the entire team - including the coaching staff...

 

[DropitlikeitsHawk]

It did look floppy, but it was right in front of Fran and he didn't even get redfaced let alone chase down any refs, so might have been an actual foul.

Dix didn't do much complaining either.


(just hoping, but maybe that lack of reaction from Fran is because he doesn't care anymore because he's on his way out)

🙏

Hands in pockets quite a bit huh….

 

[Mohawkeye]

Play Harding 20 minutes in the 2nd half and bench Perkins. I want to see some effort.

 

[IAFB2021Champs]

Perkins is definitely going portal. I can't say I blame him.

Or just be done playing college basketball.

 

[tumorboy]

I was thinking the same thing. He seems like he's sooo not wanting to be here...

Going to be interesting off season on who all leaves. Defense is not only lacking athletes but effort as well. This will not get better next year without some new blood in the guard court. Harding is not the answer.

 

[ChuckBarkley]

PM show rest of the way.

 

[RocknRollface]

Perkins is definitely going portal. I can't say I blame him.

He'll no I don't. If he can get 100k or whatever do it man.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Take away 6 points from flopping, I guess we are only down 6.

But whatever. Just put us out of our misery

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Only down 12 after the disaster of the 1st half is okay. I'm not watching though. USA vs Mexico.

 

[millah_22]

Imagine how lethargic you need to be to get blown out by a team in Utah on a Sunday.

 

[Hawksfor3]

PMac 3!

He has a rebound too!!

 

[tumorboy]

Agreed, not sure why some are so excited about next season…we have a yet another lanky kid and an unknown Canadian on the way…

Harding will be the most proven ball handling guard. Let that sink in.

 

[Jimmy McGill]

48 points given up.

I apologize for my 50 pt guess earlier.


FRAN: you can't win with a bunch of unathletic dudes that don't play defense even if they can shoot 3's. I really don't understand how the Fran defenders can keep up with it.

 

[Rambler Hawk]

Sadly, it looks like PMac looks the most engaged on the entire team - including the coaching staff...

Not a good omen…😢

 

[hawkeye_wx]

Utah has four more threes and six more FTs. That's your lead. The rest of the stats are close.

 

[Mohawkeye]

Doesn't lok interested in being there and I can't really blame him.

I can blame him. If you don’t want to play, then say so and let someone else. BS. He’s already checked out and transferred to Kansas. Play Dix and Harding.

 

[Franisdaman]

He has a rebound too!!

i taught him everything i know about rebounding

 

[2D_]

Brock showing we still have some fight left in us with that last shot.

 

[IAFB2021Champs]

What’s up with all the Harding bashing? He’s probably the best ball handling point guards Iowa has had a in a loooonnnng time. Plus he brings some energy and has been shooting a little better lately.

 

[ChuckBarkley]

It feels like it would be better for the program if tonight is the end of the season...can figure coaching situation and attack portal. A W delays everything.

 

[jdw10224405]

Never realized how much Utah's arena looks like Carver

 

[millah_22]

can figure coaching situation and attack portal.

 

[ROHawk 44]

Hard to come from watching good bball all weekend... to this crap. Sick of watching the same horrible defense when teams like cyclones and Creighton enter the sweet 16 with good guard play

Utah has four more threes and six more FTs. That's your lead. The rest of the stats are close.

Except points.

 

[Rambler Hawk]

I think I know why Indy declined their NIT invitation….they did not want to potentially get throttled by Indy State! Lol
