    5 Reasons I'm Optimistic about Iowa Basketball

    I'm guessing it is the other way around, on who was drunk.... Not to mention is was only 10:30pm in Cali when he posted.... Good post from the LA Branch of HN. I too am still hanging with this team. I think that they are close to turning the corner. They are able to stay in ball games, even...

    Roy Marble: Son confident despite shooting woes - thegazette.com

    What Roy Jr needs is another Marble. Someone to help take the heat. Right now we have nobody.... He will get that support next year. Either from current teammates stepping up, and/or the additions of Uthoff & Jok. Roy is tough. He will come back just fine. Even if it is not this season...

    Anjeus Jones Commits to Iowa

    LoL! Exactly. On 3rd and 7.

    Marble????

    Wrong. Marble has been having problems well before that. Fran just needs to keep him on the bench when the game is on the line. Three games he has cost us the win with less than two minutes to go. He needs to ride the pine, just like Woody does at the end of the game.

    Is there an official list yet??

    Yeah, I know KF has become more & more conservative. Thus less willing to bend to the trend. But we are all hoping BF will have some influence... Any word that the university has officially received the signed LOI from Jones & Spearman?

    Is there an official list yet??

    I would like to see the dryed ink on Jones & Spearman. Are any of the recruits on campus now, besides Kenny? I think this would be a huge move for us to start encouraging recruits to come early. Far greater chance to have them earn playing time, especially with Kirk. It has been the new...

    I don't really get it.

    The Hawks are right about where I thought they would be. With the exception of winning one of these close games. That said the team is shooting much worse than I had expected. I thought for certain we would be shooting better than last year. The new facilities were to help, but it seems to...

    Marble's draft stock falling?

    I think Fran's mistake was using Marble in any play, again. He made the mistake of using Marble in the last loss. Keep Marble out of the picture. We were winning without him... White was open tho.

    Nothing wrong with Marble. Saywut?

    I too think there is something wrong with him. He isnt as explosive. At least he doesn't seem that way to me. I'm not the only one thinking that am I?? He could be hurt to the point where the ligament(s) or what have you, will not fully heal without significant time off and/or surgery, but...

    VanLaere: Once Again Hawkeyes Can’t Close, Lose to the Gophers

    Do I state the obvious? Bench _____ at the end of the game. Or use him as a decoy.

    So Aaron White scores a Career High starting at the 3

    He has a Very valid point. It WAS just PSU. The worst team in the league. White exploited this and did well. But it was just Penn State.... As for Clemmons, he didn't play but a third of the time that White played. Yet still scored plenty, for a guy we do not rely on to score.... Personally, I...

    New Peter Jok Video

    We could use his shooting now! Of course, as soon as he gets on campus he will probably contract the virus lidonbasketitis. It seems to affect everybody that goes to the new basketball facility...

    So Aaron White scores a Career High starting at the 3

    His 3 pt shooting is improving. Like the ENTIRE team, he was in a slump for most the year shooting the 3. He is still shooting it at Worse % than last year. But lately he is hitting at a better clip. Now IF just the rest of the team could... Heck, if just Ogelsby could shoot at his % from last...

    peter jok to date stats

    I would have to agree with you Jack. Listening to the game on the radio makes me need to get out & watch one of his games! The guy just takes over, when needed. I love how he plays point forward sometimes. Triple teamed? No problem. Just give him the ball to begin with & let him take it up...

    Top 10 most under rated Hawkeye Bball players in history

    It definitely depends on how you consider under rated. Andre Woolridge was rated very high, but he got the shaft on the MVP. Still, I wouldn't consider him under rated... The fella WAS our team, and everybody knew he was good. Darryl Moore. The guy had a good all-around game. Great defense.

    JDM says "Turf toe" for RDM

    I'd wager that the length of the recovery is TBD for RDM. Not good. I'm guessing that the UofI is SOL. FSP!

    JDM says "Turf toe" for RDM

    One would have to guess that the injury is not going to get better without some serious time off and/or surgery. Having that as his option, Marble has decided to keep playing to finish off the year. Knowing he cannot get healthy unless he takes months off.... The question is, is Iowa better off...

    Why can't our BB team

    THIS! Aaron White is the master at it. If he could just make those shots.... Maybe it plays out better with percentages, going for the foul & taking free throws vs making the dang shot... Regardless, it is much more exciting bball watching someone make a shot, rather than a momentum killing...

    Crow time

    I agree with this.... Woody needs to ride the pine to start the game. We need to get out of the gate quicker. And it isn't happening.

    Marble / Basabe

    Tonight would be a great start to draining some shots! We have the potential, it just isn't happening. It almost seems bizarre how there is always a lid on the basket...
