Sparty closing 1st half strong up 13. Kept getting distracted wondering what Izzo would look like with lips. Anyway, 35-22 with Dawson on the pine most of the 25-8 run.
Shouldn't they have the women start earlier and have their championship the Monday after selection Sunday? Seems like the men steal all the oxygen over the next 2 weeks.
Thanks for posting- I had no idea they played today.
I am not onboard with gloating, as we haven't done anything, but the rest if your post us on point. Our expectations are low, so we haven't been talking crap Do that, you better back it up or you get embarrassed. .
This was a devastating loss. Our lower expectations would make it far less painful. They're our rivals, so I admit it made me smile inside to see them go down. But do really feel badly for their fans and the team.
The improvement has been incremental. Since it hasn't been dramatic, its time to run the coach. Crazy. Getting a different coach doesn't mean it'll get better. If any fan base should know that, it's us.
I think the frustration comes from Fran taking over a perennial title contender like Iowa BB and only getting them to the tournament two years straight after making it to the NIT championship the year before that. It's like we're moving backwards in reverse.
