    down goes ky

    Was really hoping for all B1G championship game but a rematch with Duke is sure to draw more viewers. I tend to think Sam is gone but would not ve surprised to see him return if they lose on Monday. I also can't imagine what is going through Jarrod Uthoff's mind as he watches but certainly...

    We may have played 7 conference tourney champs.

    Would have been even crazier to see the state of Iowa have (3) conference champions had the Hawks been able to hold serve :(

    The Ripple Effect

    Perhaps not for everyone but I would say Nigel Hayes does a pretty good job of forcing contact.

    I hated this and so did Fran

    Biggest head scratcher on that was White denying the guard at free throw line as he actually encouraged the pass at 3/4court vs playing behind and making them go full court

    Kyle Meyer

    Never called him a difference maker. I simply stated he could have been a serviceable role player to spell White. I also stated I like Uhl's potential as well but if you ask me whether I would prefer to have Meyer on the bench opposed to "banking" it this season I stand by the assessment much...

    Kyle Meyer

    I love the potential of Uhl but I personally think many gave up on Meyer too early. He's one guy I think could have helped spell White at the #4 while providing a bit more offense than Dom at this stage of their careers...

    Don't you just love the cocky smiles on MSU players

    If I shot nearly 90% from 3pt land after "only" going 50% from deep I'd be opening mocking the defense as well as it comes down to simple math when our only offense is 2pts inside. Throw in another dismal display by the Iowa backcourt shooting a "blistering" 16.7% and even the hard-core fans...

    Next Hawkeye to be drafted?

    Gabe currently ranked #42 http://www.draftexpress.com/profile/Gabe-Olaseni-40815/stats/ Whitey checks in at #94 http://www.draftexpress.com/profile/Aaron-White-41367/

    Iowa's bucking a trend this year

    What is perhaps even more unusual would be having White (86% - 5th in conf) and Gabe (84.6%- 9th conf) leading the team in free throw percentage and both also shooting over 50% from the field. http://www.foxsports.com/college-basketball/iowa-hawkeyes-team-stats

    White, Olaseni and Uthoff: The three-headed dragon

    Nebraska stayed in a pretty solid man-to-man much of the game which historically has caused the current guards a bit of difficulty in getting their points but should we see more zone sets which I believe we will there will be games were Jok or Gesell or ?? drop 15-20pts and that is the balanced...

    so, olaseni STILL not starting over woodbury . yeah, I went there again

    As much as I would have no issue if Gabe did get a start, I also love the fact we have his offensive productivity in the later stages of the half when the likes of White & Uthoff are getting a rest. I am personally rooting for Gabe to pull in that 6th Man award and could you imagine the legend...

    Football School?

    Bryce Alford 0-10 is not going to help the cause.

    Time to Pull the Plug On the Oglesby's Playing Time?

    Not to add too much fuel to the fire but the men's sharpshooter has 12 total makes on the season while Dixon on the women's team hit a school record 10 treys vs Drake just today alone.

    What half court offense would you like to see Iowa run?

    I wonder if Coach Bluder would be willing to share their playbook?

    Dom Uhl.....

    The most positive thing I would add is this. Fran has clearly stated from an offensive "skill" perspective Dom came into the Iowa program with a lot of raw ability much like Gabe or Jarryd Cole and has never once been referred to as a pure shooter so if he can make strides on the offensive end...

    What Happened to the fun up and down Basketball

    Another change this year is White at the 4. Overall a much better fit but the one downside is he may not be able to leak out and run as much. Jarrod at the 3 spot has the ability but he is also one of our shot blockers with his length so you have a guy that is often leaving his feet attempting...

    What Happened to the fun up and down Basketball

    Tonight was another solid pre-season building block game. Pepperdine was a solid team with decent size down low and pressing guard play much like what may very well be awaiting the Hawks once conference play starts. The Hawks got up early and then were challenged on multiple occasions and even...

    Iowa Women have Grit

    Logic has her share of head scratching turnovers but the difference is she will almost always come back and make up for it on the defensive end. Dixon has amnesia when it comes to a missed shot and can get a shot off in the blink of an eye and I am pretty sure she hasn't air-balled (2) 3pt...

    Here is the Real Big Ten West Darkhorse

    Great insight Jon. I think one could also perhaps add the "potential" emergence of Wadley to that list as having that extra speed back to go with Weisman gives the opposing teams just a bit more they will have to prepare for.
