***OFFICIAL NCAA FIRST FOUR THREAD***

[slipHawk]

Sparty is hacking like usual - no fouls

 

[HawkBall23]

UCLA has the best hair in college basketball

Not sure best is the adjective I would use, but yeah. Sure.

 

[HawkBall23]

Sparty is hacking like usual - no fouls

Just like I said earlier in the thread, same officiating style as in B1G play.

Which is no bueno for Iowa, starting in Monday's matchup.

 

[Rambler Hawk]

Is it me, or does #10 for UCLa basically palm the ball when he dibbles!?!?

 

[HawkBall23]

UCLA's Juzang must think he's playing Iowa.... he can't fricking miss (from 3)!

 

[tippet1]

Hemphill played 10 very limited minutes. He’s their best player. Best defender, leading scorer. He’s coming back from a broken foot. Otherwise Sturtz has to play the entire game. And they still won.

Again, I am talking about what they ran on the offensive end. I am not impressed with their sets and think they are fairly easy to guard. I know Hemphill is their leading scorer and he has been out with a broken foot for a month. You said they were missing their two leading scorers but Hemphill played.

It sucks for Drake that Sturtz is not coming off the bench, because he is better in that role. He should probably only play around 15 minutes a game but Devries is still going to run the same sets whether all his guys are healthy or not.

 

[HawkAssassin]

Aaron Henry has become a hell of a player.

hes got a nice stroke

 

[herkhatescy]

Why do people post stupid stuff like this? Just why?

Stupid people do stupid stuff.

 

[tippet1]

Can you imagine how the talking heads would crush Fran if this was his situation. Coach Izzo is running an asylum where thugs are in each other’s faces way too often.

I have been to a MSU practice and this is nothing compared to what he says and does in practice.

 

[StormHawk42]

Sparty gonna find a way to blow it

 

[herkhatescy]

Did you watch the game moran? Drake did everything they could to lose the game in the last minute. Controlled a defensive rebound but threw it away trying to rush up court with a 4 point lead and the ball under a minute. Then give up the 3 and then miss the front end to give WS the chance to win? Yeah if Frans kids did that we'd never hear the end of it...

Moran..hahahahhaaa

 

[jamesvanderwulf]

Moran..hahahahhaaa

Noobie....

 

[StormHawk42]

Pretty sure Tyger Campbell is from Iowa originally and Fran recruited him.

 

[jamesvanderwulf]

Anyone who thinks this tournament is going to be officiated any differently from the Big X is mistaken...

 

[MepoDawg#]

Iowa recruited #10 for UCLA.

 

[herkhatescy]

Noobie....

No dumb **** not a noobie. You just need to stop while you're behind.

 

[QChawks]

yup

does not bode well for hawks either

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Pretty sure Tyger Campbell is from Iowa originally and Fran recruited him.

There is a lot to this story. I believe that he and his mom bounced around quite a bit and from what I heard, living below the poverty line is an understatment. I think he bounced around with family members to survive. I believe he lists Cedar Rapids as his hometown and I thought played with the Barnstormers with Pat's team. At one point I believe he lived in Tennessee and finished in Vegas? I could be wrong on a few of these details but I believe it is pretty close.

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Huge play by Langford.

 

[tippet1]

Pretty sure Tyger Campbell is from Iowa originally and Fran recruited him.

He was born in Cedar Rapids and went to a prep school in Indiana.

 

[slipHawk]

Apparently the floor is covered with grease

 

[Michael1969]

For the physicality this game has had, it's remarkable UCLA has been able to keep it close.

 

[Hawkfan_08]

MSU pulls an Iowa. Missed FT, give up the rebound, 3 point play to tie.

 

[HawkRose]

Wow. Some great finishes this first four

 

[pocha444444]

Man weak call on Henry

 

[Hawkfan_08]

I'd pay money for the ref that Izzo was busy yelling at to T him up with 16 seconds left.

 

[Michael1969]

Picturing UCLA coming up with a steal and hitting a game winning bucket with 5 seconds to go.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Man weak call on Henry

Body contact and not straight up.

It gets old watching BOTH teams make faces after EVERY foul. Then you see the replay with clear contact and foul.

 

[IaHawks03]

If youre gonna foul a guy, don't let him make a damn layup

 

[pocha444444]

I'd pay money for the ref that Izzo was busy yelling at to T him up with 16 seconds left.

Izzo gets worse with age. 16.4 seconds left, get over to the bench and draw up a play.

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Izzo is a major turd but he's good at set plays. That was as horrible as it gets.

 

[pocha444444]

Body contact and not straight up.

I was talking about the strip out on the wing. He may have got a little wrist but it was pretty weak. Basically a loose ball at that point.

They’ve been going both ways. More against UCLA.

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Wow. Pretty close to a buzzer beater.

Players never think they foul.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Yep.... Don't give up a weak foul for the and-one. Whoops

 

[Eburghawk]

MSUPBRM in trouble

 

[HawkRose]

Wow msu choking

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

MSU crapping the bed
