I've thot all along he's got Indy on his mind. The most disengaged I've seen in his career. Personally, fine if he goes. May lose the new guy but, honestly, don't know what we don't have as far as legit or not. Sorta bored with all the hyped up, tweener, 6'7 "shooter" guys who somehow find their...

Whatcha talkin bout? This game has nearly 60 posts. I've seen worse this season. That said ... This team is just bad. Sandfort is having arguably the most disappointing sr season in recent memory. He continues to play most minutes of anyone shooting mid-teen % and leading in turnovers. Dix is...

Meh, writing on the wall is starting to look like ink for this one. I'll check back after watching Kate play Barbie in Unrivaled.

... Of an open gym shoot around.

... and Big P + Dix 1 for f-ing 11 / 0-fer from 3!! Plenty.of those had nothing to do with OSU being physical. "Shooters" need to do their damn job at at least a competent level!

Not this year. At least not in conf. Contagious with Dix, too! Good Lord, Freeman has to be so tired of playing 1 vs 5 in ever single game. He's the ONLY guy who gets his night in/ out while the rest of the entire team flounders around launching bricks and giving up scores.

Get your gist and agree on some aspects, most notably, Iowa has always struggled with things like perimeter defense. However, when I recall the historical big picture, I still feel Fran has done less with more. Admittedly, haven't broken down every roster under every coach - and recent memory...

I remember you and I feeling pretty optimistic about the "paper skill" - even athleticism - of this team as it fit Fran's style. Where we differed early on was, I saw first hand at exhibition that this team was horrible at rebounding. I would still disagree a bit with you about "one of Fran's...

How lucky! The did everything in their power to piss away this game. Just not a good team at all.

I missed most of first half but everything I've seen from Harding tonight has been really bad. He's just stagnating this offense and damn near had a hook there (Avoided thanx to good ol Big10 home court officials). Then misses a throw! IF they manage to eek this out, it will be in spite of his...

I'm cool with him when he stays in his lane and gets good shots within the offense. It's when he matadors on D then launches a running 3 barely cross half and the shot clock hasn't even started especially when Freeman is dominating the inside ... Just a mojo buster.

Absolutely the glaring hole. With few exceptions Frans "bigs" are mostly 6-7, 6-8 guys with small forward mindsets. The are unreliable shooters, definitely not creators, and can't rebound. Sorely need a decent 7'0 banger to compliment Freeman.

Key here is NIL age. That's only been an argument for 3-4 years. The toilet flush of Iowa's hype vs success/ lack thereof vs apathy has been a raging debate long before NIL $. NIL is just what's going to make it irreversible

Key here is NIL age. That's only been an argument for 3-4 years. The toilet flush of Iowa's hype vs success/ lack thereof vs apathy has been a raging debate long before NIL $. NIL is just what's going to make it irreversible.

Just tuned in to see WTF Harding?! Two missed entry passes for easy layups, opting instead for a brick 3 and capping it off over-penetrating into a mess amongst the bigs. Not a great first impression after that Minny embarrassment.

Disagree. They're ok with the usual, run of the mill 6-6 to 6-8 Fran forwards - decent athletes but they have small forward mindsets. They are set up scorers, not creaters. They are unreliable shooters and definitely can't bang / rebound. No sir, the front court is the glaring hole ... Sorely...

Me too! Born and bred and bleed! However, I'd be a really pissed off Hawkeye.

I hope Jan harps on that message for the rest of the season ... How any ONE of all those turnovers, all those missed free throws, all those out-hustled rebounds were the difference between finishing as a solid 20-9 NCAA team and an underachieving 16-13. No purple ribbons ladies. Remember it...

I'd like to hope so but it's 4 games too late. These last 4 losses were to teams they should've beat and destroyed their NCAA chances. While they may play better / competent ball, with the upcoming brutal schedule, they have to play almost perfect in every game. I only see 3 more wins - Home vs...

Glad to see a game that's in hand enough for the deep bench to earn the scholarship. But this is pretty hard on the basketball eyes. Ooof!
