Operation Des Moines

[Hawkeyestate81]

Needs to be the goal to finish strong. It is still achievable and could be a driving force to getting to the sweet 16 with the home advantage.

Some things that I don't understand:

-We go to this stupid stand and stall offense with 4 minutes to go with a tiny lead, we are in the bonus for the final 9 minutes and do not attack. Jok could of scored or gotten fouled at the 3 min mark but pulled it out and we get a shot clock violation.
-Why do we keep running this sh$tty zone that is killing us from 3.

All about perspective at this point. This team has over ahieved even at this point, I really hope for their sake and the coaching staff they can put it together tomorrow night to go out positively for this solid group of Seniors who have given their all. I am still reeling but I can only imagine how horrible the team feels right now, having 1 day to stew and getting back at it could be just what the doctor orders.

SCRAP THE ZONE AND ATTACK THE ENTIRE GAME PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Palm and Lunardi still have Iowa in Des Moines, this is a HUGE opportunity tomorrow.

Indiana is quickly trending toward 3 seed land, which would place them in Des Moines most likely, due to Xavier and MSU being St. Louis. We desperately need to win tomorrow.

Yep, I feel better after typing out this thread and having a cup of coffee this AM. Loss is flushed, hopefully the team can do the same and bring it tomorrow. Having Iowa still in Des Moines on the projections today really is giving me hope.
