***Official Iowa at Northwestern Game Thread***

Fran to the senior...you are still in school.

 

[TRHawkeye145]

Anyone counting the number of open 3s? They are all wide open too. No one even around haha

 

[HawkLogic]

Ellingson can't get his shot off.

 

[CanadaHawk]

Think Fran has had the starters out to give them a blow before trying a run. Hopefully they've been watching as well.

 

[DavenportHawk8]

Clock kept running there. it should of stopped at 10:56, not 10:47

 

[CanadaHawk]

NW putting it away

 

[HawkLogic]

wtf,...why extend the defense just to give up wide open 3pt shots. Come on Fran.

 

[spiderland]

Why do we keep double-teaming guys 22 feet from the basket?

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Yeah! Lets go to zone so we can REALLY get lit up from 3

 

[DougFHawkeye]

We should save our time outs until we are down 30

 

[HawkLogic]

embarrassment.

Put Kriener back in and put jok/ellingson on bench.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Good effort Jok. Hit the showers

 

[CanadaHawk]

Starters weren't watching when the bench was in.

 

[BioHawk]

OMG it's Bryant Mcintosh! Lets bow down! The NW love fest gets old.

Well it's not like there is anybody from Iowa they can lavish with complements tonight.

 

[TheRealHerky]

looking like a road win in the conference ain't happening tonight.

 

[sadiehawkins]

fran should hire a defensive coordinator cause he sure in the hell can't coach it.

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

That three sums up Iowa basketball vs Northwestern since Alford

 

[HawkLogic]

Fran pulled scottie scholarship offer? Brilliant.

 

[CanadaHawk]

Put the bench back in. Think the starters have given up

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

How is this the same team that beat Purdue?

 

[DougFHawkeye]

I was wrong...26

This one is on the players.

THIS

 

[slapchop]

frans problem isn't even that he can't adjust during the game. he can't even adjust when we get torched the exact same way game after game, after game, after game....aldkfja;ldfja;ldkfjad;lskjf

 

[denmar81]

Forget the help defense, it haunts this team.

 

[Bulldogs1974]

What exactly has ellingson done to earn all these minutes. He is awol when we play teams with a pulse and any athletic ability.

 

[CanadaHawk]

How is this the same team that beat Purdue?

The game plan that worked vs PD doesn't work vs NW. And it's a young team on an away game. I'll be more concerned if they play like this vs MD

 

[HawkLogic]

Usually they have had garbage teams and given us fits. This NW team has some athletes and shooters. Collins has built a pretty good squad not getting 4-star guys...Fran's recruiting Uhl, Ellingson, Hutton, Flemming, wagner ..a bunch of busts or near bust.

Fudge Ellingson...back to bricking 3pt shots.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Exactly... make the opponent beat you SOME other way, gets old leaving teams wide open and hoping they miss.... heck we don't rebound anyway.

 

[Hawkman34]

Forget the help defense, it haunts this team.

AMEN!!!!!!!

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

How may 3s for NW?

 

[BDinIC]

Is McIntosh on the Wooden watch list?

Nothing Fran has or has not done is gonna rectify this 30 point ass kicking we are receiving by a mediocre NW team. This is 90% on the players. Could see it coming though after young team like Iowa has a big win vs. Purdue.

 

[HawkLogic]

put the bench back in, they match up better.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

This is unacceptable. Lazy

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

Well we go from down 9 at 13 min to down 30 at 5. We've scored two or three points since we cut it to 9.

 

[CanadaHawk]

Good night.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

18-0 run... once again.... Unacceptable

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

Jok done for the night?

 

[HawkLogic]

Daily in? Couldn't risk it until now?
