*****Nebraska vs Iowa Game Thread*****

I am checking out. Only hope is for Freeman to establish himself in the post, and to play off of that. Not sure WTF Fran has them doing. I feel sorry for Josh, who continues to play great BB, but with Thelwell out, he is the lone ranger.
 
You know, I agree Fran not getting it done but at some point the players have to play for each other. I personally cannot believe some of these players are getting scholarships. Pathetic effort all around.

Sad face because I hate wanting my team to lose just 'cure the disease', but wanting the same end result you do.

Unfortunately we at Iowa have to wait until the absolute ROCK BOTTOM to make an effing change.

I know we have a new AD, but decades of history remains true until we finally see someone in a leadership position with the guts to make a change.

Can't complain too much about the players' body language and attitude when all of your coaches have their hands in their pockets when a TO is called just watching the players walk to the huddle. No fire, no pep, no instruction. Meh.
 
Trelwell and Traore are solid. Dimbele is okay. Bunch of Bench level players.

Harding is a good story but a huge weak link on defense.

Iowa down 12 after Payton 3.
Sandforts need to light up or this is a home loss to a so so Nebraska team.
Again he is no more a weak link than anyone else.
The fact some of you point out an obvious backdown or two yet overlook far worse play tells me all I need to know about your basketball iq.

The effort the put in and the toughness is something your recruit and then teach. Fran couldn't even teach his own boy PMAC to play defense and rebound, he just lets players decide whether they want to defend on their own.
