    Something is wrong, and it's not just the talent

    If barta really thinks that we should aspire to be NW in BB; he needs to find a job in the Ivy League.

    The Lick Hater crybabies can stuff it

    So Lick has brought the program back from the depths of Alford. I must be reading the wrong papers, looking at the wrong TV's, and misinterpreting the won loss records for the last 3 years and the 8 before that. Are you in LA-LA land?

    Time for changes in Iowa Basketball

    It is sad 89- I'm 1000 miles away- so I go to a few FB games each year, but BB is not practical. I honestly think if I were living in IC right now, I would be more likely to buy a ticket to see the Iowa women before the men. And I am in no way a big fan of WBB.

    Why the hatred?

    Shurna won the 3 point shooting and dunk contest in the state of Illinois as a senior. Do we have anyone who can dunk?

    Time for changes in Iowa Basketball

    The only way that hiring a new coach would set us back is if we hired Woopi Goldberg- now that I think of it, she was a pretty good coach in that movie. Sorry attempt at humor; but if you can't laugh at this situation; it is really bad.

    Why the hatred?

    Shurna would start for virtually any team in the country. He looks like a nerd; but he was a very highly rated player coming out of HS, and will be 1st or 2nd team all B10 as a sophmore. I can't think of any 3 guys on our roster that I wouldn't trade for one Shurna.

    Time for changes in Iowa Basketball

    Bud; I guess when you want a good steak, you go to Golden Corral. Sometimes I wish I could put up with mediocrity, failure, and apathy. I was going to say that is what Lick has brought to the Iowa BB program, but now that I think of it: mediocrity would be giviing him way too much credit.

    Jon - Recruiting Randle??

    Sometimes I feel like Lick thinks Hoosiers happened last year.

    Barta

    But he looks so goog in the black blazer with the striped tie and a nice smile. Oops, forgot we didn't hire him for a clothing add.

    Would we have been better off w/Stallings?

    BJ is not going to give up his big $ agent gig to come to Iowa as an assistant- don't know why people keep bringing up his name.

    Seriously Cody Larson better be able to play Center

    The only guy we have on the roster that is really a C is Brommer. We'll have to use a lot of undersized or underweight guys to fill that position.

    Can someone explain

    I agree; if Larson is as good as advertised, I don't see Archie ever getting significant playing time. If he was a true center, maybe; but he is not.

    Good Recruiting or not good

    Tucker was not the player of the year in MN, that was Taylor at Wisky; neither one was ranked as a top recruit nationally, so I dont get your point.

    Good Recruiting or not good

    We are in Van Coleman's top 20; I respect his opinion,but he is definitely an Iowa homer. Don't think we are in anyone else's. And I strongly believe the rating of classes in BB is far more accurate than FB.

    Nit or NCAA or Bust

    I don't think PSU or Purdue will lose a lot- Battle has a brother coming in as a frosh next year- can't see him abandoning the youngster. Johnson needs to gain a lot of weight before he is NBA ready, and what is Moore's position in NBA? Not a point, small off guard, may have a career but not a...

    Tuesday is the start of our 3 game win streak

    Pretty sad when we are HOPING to finsih strong and end up with more wins than the FB team.

    Lickliter, the basketball program, and the next level.

    This is a mute point; Barta will not fire Lick after this year. But, I don't buy that a coaching change would put us back 3 years. There are lots of coaches who could turn this around in a year or 2.

    Lickliter - NCAA Tournament Appearances

    Shane you are right about one thing- we are in trouble. Somewhere Dick Schultz is smiling seeing all his negative records going off the books.

    Painter made a stupid move today

    Roll up the score- it looked to me that purdue was sleep walking most of the second half.
