9YRPLAN...That is not how all MVC games are officiated...not at all actually. The free throw stats can be thrown out the door. Typically the more aggressive team that pounds the ball inside is going to have a free throw advantage over a team that prefers to shoot 3's and rarely goes into the...

The nature of the foul calls is what is disturbing...I don't think McCabe even touched the guy on the one where he got T'd up. Marble got dinged for at least 2 phantom calls; same for Basabe. Gatens got one for running down the court side by side with a UNI guy...Gatens ends up on the floor...

When he got his last T the game was already over. I have no problem with Fran's T's; an assistant coach and player should never get T'd up though.

I agree. Basketballman was implying that Iowa is not trying to be uptempo etc. I believe they are trying to be uptempo against teams that they can be, but it doesn't always work that way. Especially against teams like Creighton and UNI.

In Iowa's wins they have scored 79,96,95,88 and 82. IN their losses they have scored 59,61,55,54. It seems to me they want to score in the 70's and 80's, but that isn't always possible. You do realize that Cartwright was out tonight also right? It makes pushing the ball and pressing a little...

Did you read my post or just that first sentence? Thanks for playing

I'm not comparing their results...you said players act like their coaches. Bobby Knight had some pretty good players that had great NBA careers and he was as hot tempered as they come

Give it a rest....Fran is extremely competitive. If I were him I would make sure that Andrew Francis and the other assistants never get a technical again...that is the head coaches job, not the assistants. The competitiveness Fran exudes makes him the type of guy that players want to play...

[/B] Was Bobby Knight a good coach? Just wondering your opinion on that because he had a little bit of success and tended to overreact from time to time. I understand what you are saying and I don't believe Fran intended for his T to lead to 2 more in the next 20 secs or so. It's been said...

Well said! I think Brust is comparable to Bohannon when he went to Wisky. Both are able to fill it up from 3 but would struggle to handle pg responsibilities. Brust does play with confidence for not having much experience though. They played in a tough environment last night and he was not...

How do you know he can't play defense? No one is throwing marble under the bus but the teams needs someone that can shoot the ball on the floor. May doesn't want to shoot, Bryce can't shoot from 3 and Gatens is going to be keyed on by every team Iowa plays. Marble is streaky and has a nice...

I agree they have miles to go but so does everyone else on this team. Just look at the shooting %'s of Iowa's opponents. May and Gatens are decent defenders but to say there is a big difference between those two and Oglesby/White is a stretch. They are better right now because of experience...

How can anyone who has watched this year and last year put May in their starting lineup?? :confused: He brings nothing to the table on offense...nothing. He is good for a break away dunk here and there but that is it. He is hesitant, he still struggles to the handle the ball and the offense...

I think the players showed up at ISU but I don't think the coaches did! Frustrating to watch Coker run up the middle into an 8 man defensive front all day long. I think the coaching staff goes ultra conservative on the road. Play calling was very similar in the ISU, MInnesota and PSU...

They all come from winning programs at some point....They all know what it is like to win games. I don't believe for one second they are satisfied with the way they are playing. That being said; adjustments need to be made. I do my best to follow closely and listed to a lot of the game...

1040 will get you into 1300 territory, so between the two you should be covered

I don't like it. It's like ISU football...never on tv.

[/B] 1) I thought the game was being shown on tv today just not live. It's a replay of last nights game. Not a replay on the internet. 2) I'm not understanding why tv stations could do it before the BTN was around, but now they can't? What happened in the years since the BTN became...

Seriously?? Bottom line is before the BTN took over you could watch almost every game on local television. Now we are lucky to get any non-conference games. BTN was touted as providing access to more games "on television". You pay more for cable now if you have Mediacom because they added...

They are able to replay the games 2 days later on BTN, so they do have people there producing it, they just aren't showing it live. Local networks were able to produce the broadcast before the BTN was around....I guess they had all sorts of money to do that.
