    Ben missed out on a player

    Not that huge of a miss it doesn't seem like. We need a 6'10 plus lane clogger with fouls to give. And a backup pg. The backup pg isn't so much for this yrs playing time as Ben will run the wheels off of Stirtz playing him big mins. But we sure need one for just in case he gets hurt/foul trouble...

    BJ Armstrong to Kings

    Great question and I would imagine we'll be finding that out. He and his Dad didn't quite overlap at Iowa but close enough that surely they've known of each other. I mean everyone knows who BJ is but did BJ know who Kenyon was is anyones guess. I would think so. Hell i woulda thought while BJ...

    Holy crap....... the average price per ticket in Carver was $650

    That's the $64k questions lots of marketers, large corporations and WNBA folks all would like to know. Is this a new normal? I haven't a clue either and anyone jumping up and down giving a definitive answer either way is just guessing. What if she God forbid shreds her knee and misses a...

    Holy crap....... the average price per ticket in Carver was $650

    Oh she's gonna make a ton of money there's no doubt about it. If she's gonna hit the billion mark It'll just have to be 98 plus percent made from outside her day job with the WNBA is all. LeBron has been pulling down north of 50 milly/yr that's sure helped him over the course of however many yrs...

    BJ Armstrong to Kings

    Tyler Ulis was the one that got away it seemed like for Fran. Not that we had the best chance of ever really landing him. Fran was just in on him early. But when MSU and Kentucky got involved later in the process Fran was pretty much out. Had Fran landed him good gravy that coulda changed a lot...

    BJ Armstrong to Kings

    Interesting gig for him to be taking on... He'd been an agent for quite awhile based out of the LA area. I'd assume he can't continue doing that with the conflict of interest that'd be. So he'll have to cut ties with that agency he'd been with. I'm really curious about the career change for him...

    Jeff Horner to BVU

    I was born at that hospital.. Grew up 30 mins west of there. It was probably half the size it is now as they've done a lot of adding to it over the years. The school is just to the south and east right on the lake. My friends and I went to those summer basketball camps they had with Iowas...

    Holy crap....... the average price per ticket in Carver was $650

    Yeah I mean sure the WNBA is growing some now with her but they are coming from such a low place that what's she gonna go from making $78k/yr to 50 milly? That isn't happening over the course of her career let alone anytime soon. She damn well outta be the first to break the 1 million mark/yr I...

    Holy crap....... the average price per ticket in Carver was $650

    Sounds like you had an awesome time I'm jealous. Thanks for sharing your 1st hand account of it all. It seems like going forward they outta do something like this again too. But that sorta thing you just never know. If that's the last shot Clark hits in a game at CHA I'd say that's as fitting...

    Holy crap....... the average price per ticket in Carver was $650

    A 'Brazilian' points!!! Haha nicely done. I was wondering if anyone from our boards here mighta went to it. I watched it and it was just typical Clark being Clark out there. She hit a 3 to start the game and at the end of the 3 quarters she played. She wasn't 100% her normal self whatever she's...

    One Of McCollum’s Assistants Is…

    And to be real the only players we had worth trying to keep talent wise we landed 1 of 4... Dix only has 1 yr left to play He woulda fit perfectly with Ben but he played for a huge discount for 3 yrs so it was time for him to find a bag. Be it Gatens, Ben whomever there was no amount of...

    Leave it to Illinois to bring European pro-ballers to college basketball

    Yeah... As an old fart I've found myself more and more just watching highlights and not even watching full games on tv as much anymore. I'll always try to watch Iowa's games live but beyond it's tough to carve out the time when you can recap 95% of a 2 plus hour long game in a 30 second-1 minute...
