Strange that 247, Scout and even The Register don't mention it. Maybe because it was such a late, fallback offer. http://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/sports/college/iowa-state/basketball-mens/2015/08/30/donovan-jackson-commits--cyclones/71440832/

Losing guys to any of those schools is nothing to be ashamed of considering the top 2 ranked kids on that list (Carr & Prictchard) stayed in their home state. It's not easy to pull kids out of someone else's back yard when you are not a blue blood program. As for Donovan Jackson, I don't think...

Yeah, doesn't hurt to have an antagonist roaming the boards this time of year. ;)

I will give you credit, you do a good job of keeping threads going even though it's just to argue for the sake of arguing. One of the more productive trolls on here.

And then managed to get in trouble once on campus and either got a slap on the wrist or a no punishment at all. As tragic as the BDJ situation is, he is a product of the system. As a standout athlete, you are given preferential treatment which often leads to having little to no regard for...

I think CW will have a game that will more closely match Marble's sophomore year than Gesell's senior season. Marble averaged 11.5 points, 3.6 assists, 3.8 boards, 1.5 steals and 1.7 turnovers. Since Marble was a wing playing PG I think it's fair to liken Williams to his game. I don't think...

I don't think DJK's issues had anything to do with his work ethic. Everything I've heard about him suggest he was a monster in the weight room and obviously didn't seem to take many plays off when on the field. I'm sure 99% of his problems stemmed from his 'social life' and/or attitude.

The United States Congress would beg to differ.

I don't care if you are Michael Jordan. Calling out college kids in anonymity like that is just dumb. Especially a group of kids who have dug Iowa out of the darkest period of basketball in its history. You sound as though you just started watching this team in January. Maybe go back and...

Speaking of soft, are you on your couch or in an office chair when call out college athletes from your keyboard?

Exactly. Give me Devan Bawinkel and Seth Gorney over those 2. Man how I long for the days when we didn't have to worry about losing the B10 title in March. These scrubs couldn't even deliver us a split of the conference title. Worthless.

I agree that Fran should get some of the blame for the late game collapses but I think a majority of this is on the players. He can't shoot free throws for them or knock down wide open jumpers. How many head-scratching turnovers has this senior-laden squad had in late game situations? We have...

I imagine it's less about the fact that he's a Stanford fan and more about the fact that it's a duplicate thread from a week prior. Not completely his fault as he's new to the site but if he were actually a Stanford grad and not just a fan he could probably figure out the search feature at the...

I don't really feel like Iowa fits this mold. If you really want to see a team that fits the "live by / die by" mantra, look no further than last year's ISU squad. As good as they were shooting the ball, all it took was a bad shooting night against a 14 seed and they were greeted with a quick...

They weren't the only ones twisting words. This UM beat writer did the same... http://www.csnmidatlantic.com/blog/maryland-talk/iowa-complains-about-feel-marylands-basketballs-after-loss

I don't think I like the idea of Uthoff forcing it.

I realize that you are trying to rip on Hilton here but I wish Carver had more of this supposed 'magic'. If the refs were getting intimidated by the Hilton crowd and calling the game in their favor, imagine if the refs on Sunday felt that way in Carver. Iowa would've won by 30. Hell, if they...

Not really. The constitution doesn't protect someone from losing their scholarship and/or getting kicked out of school for saying something stupid. It merely protects them from legal ramifications. Disclaimer: I'm not actually referring to the athletes who showed up at the Trump rally.

Most of them just try and get you to make an educated decision and the cards just happen to fall where they do.

I sure hope this isn't any sort of violation (hard to believe it is). Sure would be a waste to lose eligibility supporting someone as pathetic as the Donald.
