    And yet they're not. :( Here we are again, on the outside looking in.

    Atwood to Iowa? For Real?

    That's a big IF... but keepin' the faith.

    A transfer that Hoiberg actually can't get and Iowa desperately needs.

    I think they pretty much understand if they screw this second chance up, they're out. He'll give them a second chance, but they'll have to show they are ready to let go of the little bad boy behavior and grow up. They seem to understand that the chance he has given them has value beyond just...

    I'd rather watch figure skating

    We were great before we started playing teams in our conference.. then in that competition, we were less great. But our feelings about what is coming (RAH RAH RAH) is whipped up to a fever pitch every season by the Media, and we buy into it!!! Every year. They are to be excused, just...

    Heartfelt congrats to ISU

    Congratulations to Mr. Hoiberg and the Cyclones. A pretty amazing game, fun to watch, and a surprise to me since I was one who thought the loss of Georges Niang would cripple this team beyond an ability to beat UNC. Glad to see it though. To the poster above who hopes ISU loses their next...

    NCAA Tourney Game Thread

    I feel like I have to root for teams from our conference, but that Oregon team is strong and fast, I'll give them that. I actually am rooting for Dayton. Occasional underdog is fun to watch. They're better than I'd originally thought. Of course..... there's a whole second half, so will see...

    Will the B1G have three teams into the Final Four?

    This could sure be their year. It seems like everything is coming together just right, peaking for them at just the right time. Everyone is healthy and sound now. They seem to have their heads into it right too. I think they have the talent and ability. Will just have to see if they...

    "We would have won it all if Niang didn't get hurt."

    I'd love to see them beat North Carolina but I have my doubts about that happening. Not rooting for ISU, just rooting against N.C. The loss of a major player hurts any team. They have guys who will fill in, but will have to wait and see if that's going to be enough to do the trick. I kind...

    Please stop posting ISU threads...

    I do occasionally. :eek:

    "We would have won it all if Niang didn't get hurt."

    Well, they'll never know now. I'll be surprised if they can put together a plan to get past North Carolina tomorrow, although I do have respect for Mr. Hoiberg and the staff he's put together, so it'll be interesting to see what they can come up with. But as to whether they would have been...

    Will the B1G have three teams into the Final Four?

    I don't remotely see three Big 10 teams in the Final Four. I'm thinking Florida, Arizona, Michigan State, and probably Wichita State. Yeah, I think they can actually get that far. But Michigan? Wisconsin? Naw... I can't see them getting there. The Big 12 is really getting all the respect...

    "We would have won it all if Niang didn't get hurt."

    Well, I will say I think they are really, really going to be hurt without Niang. Being one of those major Three for them.. they had everything pretty well balanced between them. And it seemed like when one of them wasn't having the greatest night, one of the other two probably was, so they...

    Please stop posting ISU threads...

    I doubt it's going to stop anytime soon, that the occasional mention is going to come up concerning ISU and many, many other rival teams that we discuss. Most of us are far more than just Hawk fans, we're basketball fans overall, so discussing the pros and cons of various 'other' teams...

    "We would have won it all if Niang didn't get hurt."

    No, actually I haven't seen any of that from the Clowns. I do have to admit, though, that I've seen a lot of that sort of thing from some of the Hawk fans right here. If we hadn't of lost to Tennessee, we'd have gone on to at least the Elite Eight easily and probably the Final Four. No, I...

    Update on Patrick McCaffery

    Very treatable and curable. Sort of unusual that it was found in one so young though. Keeping them all in my thoughts. Times of a great illness in a family are hard, but I expect they'll come through this very well.

    Waukee HyVee trolling Hawk fans

    Doesn't bother me much either. I'd down one. Some here get in a snit like little girls and go flouncing off in a huff, all outraged and incensed. Some get a chuckle. Some just shrug their shoulders. Those who make a scene and throw around their over-the-top reaction are the most...

    So much for the Big12

    Will be interesting at the end of the evening to count up how many of their Big 12 teams are left in the field of 32. I was actually surprised they had 7 teams picked for the big dance since the conference is so small.. only 10 teams in it. Hoping the teams we have in still will thrive to kick...

    Opinion of Hawkeye Nation

    Glad you've remained a Hawk fan! No reason you need to remove your love for the teams of a certain school from your life just because you move away from that area. Lots of people are fans of several teams.. some people are fans of a certain sport in general but not especially of any certain...
