the worst was listening to Dickie V keep yapping about it.

I am surprised things like this dont happen more often in the Breslin Center. I am a fan of Izzo and will watch MSU play even if not playing the Hawks. They beat the tar out of people all game long. These hand checking rules do not apply up there. Playing against that has to be frustrating...

Great post. Mr. Davis status continues to rise in retirement in many eyes. He did a lot of great things for Iowa basketball, but some people have him on this lofty pedestal

I was blessed to play for some great coaches all the way through high school. I can honestly say i did not tuned one of them out all the way through. Did I always like what they did? Absolutely not, but always respected them through it all. My college baseball coach was a different story...

This is difficult, but I will try I am going to try and set it up with 200 minutes (obviously things change for a variety of reason) PG: Gesell 32 mins, Sapp 8 mins. RDM if needed Wings (2-3) 80 mins. Marble 32 mins, White 20 mins, Uthoff 16 mins and JO 12 4 spot: Basabe 18, White 12...

All time: 1) Ed Horton 2) Chris Street 3) Chris Kingsburry Current: I struggle with JO (but will admit been playing better as of late). No problems with any of the others. All different parts that make up a fun team to watch (including JO). My kids love Marble and (W)asabe .

I would like to know if the coaching staff every sits back and has a good laugh at the antics of Fran. I love what he has done for Iowa basketball. Majority of his T's are planned. I dont think he tried to get the one against MSU. i hate the "out of the box" bs that refs use. there is no...

He is a top of the line kid. Will do everything possible to help the team win ball games. I would expect to see him starting at a safety position before all is said and done

I put minimal stock in the the "first year of playing DI basketball" for 2 reasons. 1) We are 21 games into this season. 2) he has practiced with and against DI talent for 2 season prior to this season. His learning curve should be shorter than an incoming freshman. My opinion, he just needs...

1. Match their physicality 2. Fran work the refs as hard as Izzo (without getting booted)

I will gladly eat crow with him. I am very excited for Josh for his play. I have always felt he was a great teammate by how excited the team gets when Josh does something well. Seems to me the big monkey off his back is gone. In the past, I have continually yelled "shoot that" at him...

Everybody has defined rolls within their individual skill set and the what the team needs. He is playing his role for this team. We dont need him to be a focal offensive player. Just needs to play D and rebound

Brandon will be in Iowa City this weekend for an official visit. He does have a preferred walk-on offer. At this point he has not decided on playing football or basketball at the next level.

I would be for a 9 man rotation 1) Gesell - Clemmons. 2) Marble - Gessell - Uthoff Play some zone with Uthoff at the 2. Lots of length on the floor 3) white - Uthoff - Marble 4) Basabe - McCabe and White 5) Woody - Gabe - Basabe If we need to get to 10 for any reason split...

It is not this simple. End of game situations are so different. You are just looking at the scoreboard and doing math. If Wisky misses 1 of those 3's against a press, we have a transition basket. It is such a fine line

I would rather live with Jok and his learning curve mistake than watch OG's lumber around and get nothing done. Honestly, i would like to see a 9 man rotation. Give Jok or OG's the 10th man minutes if need be

I would like to see Iowa go through contact. Uthoff, White, and Marble tend to get to soft and try finesse things in rather than man up and force the contact and the ref to make a call

The T's did not cost us the game. People tend to forget that Wisky was on a roll before it happened. We got way more calls after the T's. Just need to finish around the basket, hit a few 3's and knock down some FT's and we win. 33-12 from behind the arc is tough to beat

Why? No flame, just curious

Nova hit a bunch of deep contested 3's. They really cranked up their defensive intensity, just like they did against Kansas. I don't think we dribbled anything down our leg. Just give credit where credit it due, Nova made more plays to win the game than we did
