*****Official Iowa vs. Nova rd. 2 game thread*****

[TheRealHerky]

Nova does not have to score another point to win. By 10.

 

[laidbackdude2011]

Iowa - turnover
Nova - 2
Iowa - turnover
Nova -3
.....and so it happens

 

[Carolina Hawk]

The good news is that the younger guys look like they aren't as big of pussies as the seniors. The bad news is that they don't have much talent.

These seniors are pussies. Just soft

[TheRealHerky]

Lil Wayne watching Iowa get curb stomped....

 

[Chewback]

Uthoff with 5, Jok with 6. Baer our top scorer with 11.

 

[Mohawkeye]

If you're looking forward to Kreiner you're going to be dissapointed

Disagree.

 

[cruhawk]

Baer is probably the least athletic guy on the court, but he's been far and away our best and most tuned in player.

 

[moondog24]

UNI would not beat this Villanova team. That said, yeah, Iowa guys are soft in Man to Man.

UNI might get beat but it would competitive.

 

[stillh8unlv]

This is a whole new level of bad - JFC

 

[HawkLogic]

Nobody is saying that AC was gonna bring us back, but it's still a very fair question why not bring back AC when things are going that bad and we are turning the ball over?

Because Fran is stubborn and does what he always does. Two years of azz kickings in 2nd round. Fran needs to adjust. This is Guard game and you need dribble drive and 3 pt shooting.

 

[mazda1]

When your best player is a freshman walk on you might struggle against a 2 seed. Just embarrassing

 

[ANYCHawk]

Good put up a Tyler Ulis graphic. Hasn't been enough of a kick in the nuts today.

 

[DakotaDan]

Wonder what the largest loss in ncaa history is? Do we have a chance?

 

[cruhawk]

Disagree.

Kriener will be head and shoulders better than Woody.

 

[General Tso]

I was complacent in the first half. Then we kick the ball away from our own player?

 

[Mohawkeye]

Has Gessel made a three point shot in March?

 

[HawkLogic]

UNI might get beat but it would competitive.

Yes, that is a given. Not possible to be worse than this effort unless you Rutgers.

 

[ANYCHawk]

Wonder what the largest loss in ncaa history is? Do we have a chance?

Largest margin is 69 (giggity)

 

[basketballfan333]

Very very telling that Fran has benched uthoff.

 

[laidbackdude2011]

A layup. Yessssssssssss

We're coming back. Only down 29

 

[EddieHaskell]

Recruiting matters, folks. We don't need anymore "diamonds in the rough". If Fran can't consistently get Top 100 guys, Barta needs to start the process of getting him out of here.

 

[larrygreenwallswildride]

Fran was a big upgrade.
Fran is not the answer.

It's damn easy to see his patterns.
We have the appropriate data at this point.

 

[BigHAWK8]

Looks like some Temple grads working concessions today.

 

[basketballfan333]

Kriener will be head and shoulders better than Woody.

That's not exactly saying a lot.

 

[mlb1399]

Baer is probably the least athletic guy on the court, but he's been far and away our best and most tuned in player.

Just goes to show what someone with heart and hustle can do.

 

[ANYCHawk]

down 25! COMEBACK IS ON!

 

[Mohawkeye]

The good news is that our best player is coming back next year. Baer.

 

[Michael1969]

Get it under 25 by the 12 minute timeout might have a shot yet

 

[HawkLogic]

Baer is probably the least athletic guy on the court, but he's been far and away our best and most tuned in player.

ah, he is not short like Gesell. Also, not soft.

 

[Tommy Gavin]

Our ball-handlers might want to stop picking up their dribble.

 

[HawkLogic]

The good news is that our best player is coming back next year. Baer.

A team of guys that have choked in close games for 4 years. Baer only one that is mentally strong

It was time for Clemmons, Gesell, woody to move on. Uthoff at least was skilled an was a good sidekick.

 

[Carolina Hawk]

Please leave Wagner in for the rest of the game.

 

[OskaloosaHawk]

13-2 run and still down 23. Holy crap!

 

[navyrules]

Disagree.

I hope you are right. But I watched him play a few times this year. He has skills, but he was soft in the games I watched.

Get it under 25 by the 12 minute timeout might have a shot yet

Said no one ever.

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

I bet Wisconsin doesn't lay an egg like this in their 2/7 matchup

 

[TxMonk]

Look.... all of you people suck who diss the Hawks. 'Nova is playing out of their minds. Every shot is droping for the Wild Cats and none for Iowa. Please all go away and may the mod shut down this thread forever.

Please- Nova is uncontested on offense. I strongly follow the Hawkeyes and cheer for them. This is the underscore of a season where - as soon as Iowa moved up in the rankings- Gesell refused to do anything but pass, Uthoff hides when he needs to step up and Woody (Bless is heart!) is so unatheletic that other bigs walk around him. I don't entirely understand today's effort- They look like deer in the headlights! I would bench the starters and play my bench if I were Coach. What a horrible way to end your career if you are a Senior!

 

[Herkmeister]

We are the Rutgers of the Midwest today.

 

[spiderland]

Our ball-handlers might want to stop picking up their dribble.

And risk dribbling it off someone's foot, most likely their own? Pick your poison...

 

[BubsFinn]

Our ball-handlers might want to stop picking up their dribble.

You mean dribbling into the lane and picking up the ball isn’t a good idea?

 

[hawkedoff]

I said it earlier this year. Ju went to Jefferson in Cedar Rapids. He is no leader
