    Exhibition Thread Numero Dos

    I'll check it out shortly. I'm checking out Indiana-Kentucky hoops. Hey I'm in a good mood. My mom is out of the hospital, I'm not cleaning up snow tomorrow morning, Santa Pam has just delivered new golf clubs and bag,and I told you ISU would suffer a Purdue hangover and Iowa would never have...

    Clones

    If there was EVER a time to play ISU this is it. They will have a difficult time coming down off the emotional high of dismantling Purdue and getting focused on the next task at hand, even if it is an in state rival. That's just human nature. We will see if they can deliver a performance like...

    Harding and Freeman had good days today

    If Creighton spent money as you said and is "likely the roster of a barely top 100 team" that may speak volumes right there. If they have "more money than most programs including Iowa and Iowa State and I doubt it's close" then perhaps Greg thinks they should be spending more of that money and...

    Harding and Freeman had good days today

    Heard the following from a source: McDermott is fed up with Freeman and lack of rebounding (had excellent production in limited minutes here) Dix mother is seriously ill and the impetus for Josh transferring close to home. Mc Dermott is also fed up with the NIL landscape and may be stepping...

    We once ate at Gorat's in Omaha and Warren Buffet was right across from us.

    Was It Just Me? Anybody Else Notice?

    He had others. At Ohio State (the loss where Fran publicly called out Uthoff for running from the ball down the stretch). At Hilton and vs Cyclones in Carver. He had a few.

    Day one of Ben McCollum

    Casey's is up there for me. Little Ceasar's not so much. Though I do like Detroit style (rectangular) pizzas. Even the ones you get at Costco and Wal Mart are passable.

    Was It Just Me? Anybody Else Notice?

    Mike Gessell had his share. He just couldn't shoot consistently. Bryce Cartwright from Fran's early teams.

    It's All About To Happen: Robert Morris at Iowa

    Gessell had more than enough hops, but don't remember any alley oops to him. I'll vote Andre Banks.

    Who’s defense MVP? So far

    I've been his harshest critic in earlier years but it might be X. He sets the tone for the whole defense. Aaron Graves deserves mention as well.

    Fickle Fickell

    For those who dont know or aren't familiar with Madison, Mickey's Dairy Bar is Bucky's version of Iowa city's Hamburg Inn and just as good. I would rate them dead even and both have the best milkshakes. Well worth a visit especially breakfast. As for the Mold-A-Rama machines at the Vilas Park...

    Hawkeyes offer son of former All-American Matt Bowen

    It was good timing for Dan McCarney though. His prime years at Iowa State dove tailed perfectly with the Hayden/Kirk transition and he recruited Iowa accordingly. Had he been coach at any other time in the last 50 years he would have met the same fate as every other Clone coach sans Campbell...
