Coldest shooting I've seen in a long time. Can't help things much that Hilton Coliseum is literally on fire right now too.
PMAC is a player without a position. He's 6'9 and too slow to keep up with opposing 3's on defense. He likes to go for shot blocks but gets out of position so no rebounding. Hes' soft and doesn't care to mix it up inside, so he can't play the 4 either. Jury is out on his 3pt shooting.
I would say PMAC can score and he has a place in the top8 as part time player. He is not the star he was made out to be. I think being a coach's kid, he was big on AAU circuit. Both CMAC and PMAC got rated as higher prospects than their talent levels. Fran quit recruiting PGs for a couple years before CMAC arrived--that is why we go stuck with Ellingson as a backup PG one year. CMAC was supposed to be a great PG and also major league baseball player if you read these boards. Turned out he couldn't shoot in basketball and he can't hit in baseball.
I can see the desire to play your own kids, but a coach has to still play guys based on merit or it breeds discontent from those passed over.
The whole iowa team needs to declare for the draft. Great game, reminded me of watching bf's offense
Only thing left is for Nik Kron to come running out the stands and knocking out Bohannon with JBo's shoes.
I don't know why I'm still watching....I guess it's like a car wreck.
The announcers are just as bad

Postgame remarks by Fran. “We did a poor job of rebounding “ and then will cart out the same starting lineup next game.
Yay. Still getting out rebounded. Complete lack of effort.
This is the biggest loss Iowa has had to ISU.
Be proud of your accomplishment Fran and Co.

NIT. Like I predicted before the season. In a rebuilding year where we had to replace four starters and the fifth switched positions, it’s really not the end of the world
Perkins was the only Iowa player that seemed to care.
Even with most of our "best" lineup with both Murrays, PMAC and Perkins---still a chit show. Murrays both had bad games, but you also have to give ISU defense a lot of credit.
So ISU was about last place last year and a coach comes in and turns program around in 1 year? KInd of takes awy the Legend of Fran taking a lickliter lefotovers and winning 4 games one year and then getting to NIT in 2nd year.

Yeah, it's a rebuilding year. There are big problems, though. I don't even see them making the NIT.
I hope you're right.
Even if you think ISU played good defense, the lack of execution and made shots by Iowa’s offense were a much larger issue. Defense and rebounding were even worse.
Easy to play good defense when you have guys standing around and guys that can't make open shots.
You deny Keegan the ball and it's easy to hold Iowa to nothing on offense.
Lol, be a nice guy. Give us your coach!
Future looks bright for you guys.
Congrats
