6'7" 290. Can he hoop as well? We could use a beefy forward.

Defense is about technique and effort. Coaches should teach the technique and bring out the effort. More talent does not automatically mean better defense. Iowa plays defense more this year, guess what, they advance. They would win a few more like that Michigan game at home. Then they make the...

Creighton is 66 in team defensive efficiency and Iowa is 279. Not so much like Creighton. We need to be more like Creighton. You don't need to be Houston or Iowa State at the top but you need to be good enough. Creighton plays good enough defense while Iowa does not. Big difference in Fran vs...

Why post that? Why poke the bear?? :)

Not sure what planet you are from? Only the winning team taking a 3 at the end is bad form. You don't run it up. The other is meaningless.

Looks like Michigan is going with the FAU coach, Dusty May. Certainly a change in temperament there. :)

Awwwww! Don't cry little buddy.

Nevada learning what Iowa, New Mexico, and UCLA already know.

I don't think it is DEI. Maybe they just don't like Iowa very much. :) Men got the second 3 seed in the NIT so they really stuck it to them and they were far from first four out. Iowa State men got a rough road. Iowa women got a rough road. ISU women got Maryland then Stanford. Not one given a...

She got her sweet sixteen and elite 8 by 57. Fran has two years then he is a real lame duck and all his competitors will really dig in with "he will be gone in two years when his contract is up". If he doesn't do anything by 2026 do you keep extending? When do you stop chasing the dragon. He...

I see what you are trying to do there. Just doesn't make me say yeah look at McDermott and think Fran can do it. By 58 coach Greg had gotten both his sweet sixteen and elite 8. Fran is 64 and hasn't. If McDermott was the one that was five years older maybe but it is the other way around.

Rumors abound that Otzelberger may be the next Michigan coach. We will see. If so where will the clowns go after that?

Of course he was 2-6 in the NCAA tournament and won 53% of his games. You need a good balance. Better off with Mr. Davis coaching his guys. I'm sure that's what you mean. :) With Mr. Davis they would have won that NC State tourney game. First hawks BB game I ever saw btw. 3/14/86 that 66-64 loss...

Word has it he was Zoom fired so there was no possibility of slappage or other shenanigans.

Not silly for those whose CBB careers are coming to a close and appreciate playing a little more basketball. Not silly for the right team to get some experience and use it to build on as some teams have in the past. Some fans appreciate another game to go to. Not the big dance but also not the...

Interesting since Fran hasn't had a single digit loss season at Iowa except for the Covid year and we were gonna get that tenth loss unless we won the BTT and the NCAA. One thing I wanted from Fran outside of a sweet 16 was a couple single digit loss seasons. Didn't even do it with his most...

Gotta stop somebody. OSU approaching 90 points. Dude hadn't scored double digits in almost 30 games but does it in the first half against us. Battle scores 0 then in the second half he goes for 23.

Gotta play more defense, rebound better, and protect the paint better. More offense isn't the answer. Then we lose 95-90 to Oregon or 95-91 to Illinois instead of 95-80 and 95-85. Maybe 87-68 to both Gonzaga and Villanova is closer but it is time to bring the defense and rebounding up not double...

Think the Lady Hawks both deflated their confidence and showed the Turtles the game plan to beat OSU.
