    Woodbury + Olaseni =

    Next year you have 30 plus minutes of the "thud", assuming he can stay out of foul trouble patrolling the opposing guards.

    Hoping this loss is like the last loss and motivates this team

    Hope is the Iowa Athletic Dept Strategic Plan.

    Weak Mentally.

    Well, I guess it can be bad shooting, but you have to have athletes that persevere though that through desire and effort. Point blank, Iowa does not. Top 10 teams generally do not give up a 20 point swing in 7 minutes and Iowa has done that several times this year.

    I didn't see that coming

    I was hoping that this was the first year in many I didn't see it coming, but I did, again.

    Weak Mentally.

    Sure, I guess we are really an odd team since PS won 4 conference games all year. It was just matchups, even thought we were up by 11, dominating, and then collapsed, and then gave up.

    Recruit someone that can shoot the d*** ball

    Jok has been lost for the past 8 games, Og's for 3 years. Yet some DII level player do fine at UNI. I just don't get it.

    When you get out worked by Penn State there is a problem

    I agree and well said.

    Woodbury + Olaseni =

    I would agree. The people in the state are starving for success. The games where these team don't show up, or give up, are like a punch in the gut to all who really care.

    Woodbury + Olaseni =

    And the Iowa fan base as well. The administration, Bardo, coaches, players and fans should all get plastic trophies and ribbons. This whole mess in athletics is depressing at times, and the fans just accept it. We have forgotten what it was like to win big games. I could be wrong, but Fran has...

    Aaron White is pure class

    Aaron has always been a class act, much like a Matt Gatens. Both had to learn to become assertive leaders. Aaron has now shown me he can play at the next level; I did not see that a couple of months ago. I am glad he came to Iowa and he may be the next Ryan Bowen in the NBA. Best of luck to him.

    Fran did it

    Congrats to Fran and the team, in particular Aaron White. Hopefully, we all learned something over the past month. I have been critical and at the same time I appreciate and respect what they have done. Aaron has become a leader, Fran seems confident, Woody seems settled and the team shows...

    Program Expectations and Reality

    If you want to talk about player development, how about compare AC Earl, Les Jepsen to Woodbury. Both looked silly as freshman and were NBA draft picks. Woody, little improvement in 3 years.

    Luke Winn hates Woodbury

    Sorry, Gabe can't start, he only is confident coming off the bench.

    Dear Fran and players,

    Enough said.
