    Matt Bullard route vs Uthoff route

    Bullard was more than a 3 point specialist for and in fairness injuries derailed him quite a bit. However, If we get out of Uthoff what we got out of Bullard I would take that any day, especially if he did that coming off the bench. I'm not suggesting Uthoff isn't good enough to start because...

    Matt Bullard route vs Uthoff route

    Huh? WTF? I'm at a loss how you're able to draw any sort of correlation between the two. However, given your definition of 'lead' and 'far in NCAA tourney' I probably shouldn't be too surprised by this head scratching post. History lesson for ya Austin- Matt came off the bench his JR year and...

    rondo vs westbrook

    Rondo has improved his stroke, but he's still by no means automatic. Westbrook thinks way too much of his shot and will take stupid shots at the wrong moment. He can light it up though. Rondo has a certain flare to his game that makes him must see BB for me. I also like the fact he does a...

    Kinnick to be re-seated in 2014

    I like my seats well enough, though down 10 or 15 rows would be better. I like the people on either side of me and I hadn't met them until the seating change.

    Flopping in today's game (old vid of Red Auerbach)

    I disagree. First refs need to learn what constitutes a block, charge, and a no call. Next, when you see the exagerated fall/slide, IGNORE IT. That gives the other team a 1 or 2 person advantage. If the player gets up with the "how could you not make that call" pose/look, then T 'em up. In...

    Dahm's Contract Expires - Extend or Fire Him?

    He has two things that should have helped him- No BB at UNI No BB at ISU

    Barta wants to raise eligibility bar

    I appreciate and applaud raising the criteria from 6 to 7 and I hope it happens. For those wondering- If Iowa only wins 6 this year and does accept a bowl berth it does NOT make Barta hypocritical. It makes him a budget concious AD.

    The Spectacular Melsahn

    I agree that Fran is prone to hyperbole when it comes to the players, but that's fine by me. I would love to get a consisten 10-12 PPG and 8-10 RB from our starting C. I don't know why Melsahn didn't grow on his FR year, but that's water under the bridge. I expect good things from him his...

    Gatens or Christopherson

    I would have like to have had both players on my team. I think Matt would really have benefited having another 3 point threat on the court at the same time. I thought Scott was pretty effective getting to the rim.

    Uthoff serious about Iowa

    My guess is if there is any hesitancy on Fran's part it's because he's similar to so many other players already on the roster. If you look at our roster we have very few players that can create their shot or shots for others. While I know little of Jarrod's game I've seen enough to know that's...

    Ferentz ranked #33 behind Hoke, Beilema, Dantonio, Meyer by The Sporting News

    Let me understand this, if you coach at a school like Michigan we can discount the accomplishment of the coach because that school has the players/tradition? Also, please help me get my arms around what KF did his first year has to do with what BH did his first year have to do with one another.

    Uthoff serious about Iowa

    I too wake up some mornings wondering what idiocy I can put on a message board for the world to see. Most days I resist the urge, but not all. If this was a talent thing didn't you wonder why Marquette or Florida would want anything to do with him? That last I checked those two schools are...

    Would you be concerned about your daugher playing fooball.. errrr soccer?

    Soccer should be banned. Period. Exclamation Point. It's boring. There's already a sport like it that's more fun to watch and that's called Hockey.

    NBA age limit

    Skipping steps is a good term. Look at Tiger Woods, recent troubles aside, he competed at and learned to win at every level. Michelle Wie skipped some steps which may be why she's having difficulty finding consistent and sustained success. Selfishly I would like to see players be 3 years...

    Wisconsin could be 2-3 in first 5 games

    I wanna ruling, is Hogeye a troll or not a troll? I say troll. The fact he thinks 5-0 might not happen is clearly troll like. The fact he contests every post(er) that don't subscribe to his narrow view is troll like. What's even worse is he'll do it with an occasional fact or worse yet, a little...

    Wisconsin could be 2-3 in first 5 games

    Questions- What year(s) can we afford to lose games we shouldn't? If you like Badger on Beaver action, how do you feel about Beaver on Beaver action, like Buena Vista and Oregon State?

    90% of NFL players who make 15mil

    Let me understand something, if there was a link with this information you would take it as gospel? In other words, if it's on the internet it must be true. Do you doubt everything you hear unless it's backed up verifiable facts? Conversations with you must be hoot. You may find this...

    Mike Gesell Video

    I'm guessing that's what you meant, but didn't want to perpetuate a stereotype. Afterall, Steve Nash and John Stockton had trouble with athletic PGs. Oh wait, by me bringing those two names into the discussion people are going to think I'm comparing MG to those names. I'm pretty good at this.
