    Beth needs to pull the trigger

    Don’t know how many times I can say it. I’m not a Clones fan period. I have been a Hawkeye fan for over 60 years you can believe it or not I don’t care Doesn’t mean I can not be objective. Iowas program is in the depths for a number of reasons including coaching. Iowa States program is eons...

    Beth needs to pull the trigger

    Probably should have made a move last year when Devries was available. It appears he wanted the job. Now we have another Drake coach that is getting a lot of attention. It would make zero sense to give McCaffrey another year and lose the chance of getting McCullom. OK he has 1 year of success...

    Iowa Program is bottoming out

    Someone just posted a rivals post that multiple players are leaving. Freemem Dix Harding Dembele and couple more. I doubt but I would also be surprised if we didn’t lose to the portal

    Iowa Program is bottoming out

    Lick was a horrible pick as coach but he represents a short period in Iowa basketball history. If course I don’t want to watch that again but there are a number of periods of Iowa basketball that were good in the past At times when all looked bleak in steps Ralph Miller. And then an unknown...

    Iowa Program is bottoming out

    Got the win against a bad team at home. We are just untalented. At times with Mulvey and Kingsbury and Brauns in game for significant time I thought I was watching a Duck Schultz team With 3 games on the road and Michigan State at home it would be a surprise to see us playing in Big Ten...

    Iowa Athletic Rev_Basketball Comment

    Not only dollars and cents. The apathy has to make it harder to recruit. According to Dochertman only 3 games with more than 6000 scanned tickets. That’s pretty pathetic

    Indiana bar a bit higher than Iowa

    I have posted from time to time that maybe Iowa should look to move on from McCaffrey 4 tournament wins in 15 years including those powerhouses Temple Davidson and Grand Canyon. Cincinnati the 4th? Of course I’m including this year as it appears unlikely we make it to the big dance Some of the...

    So are we the 3rd best team in State?

    Clones of course at #3 are poised to make a deep run. Drake is 12-1 with some nice wins over Vanderbilt, Miami FL and K State. Really good job as they had to pretty much start over with new players and new coach. Too bad we don't play Drake and UNI anymore. Would certainly be more interesting...

    Wisconsin Outruns Iowa

    As they say just one game But it it demonstrates what might happen down the road. We are a bad defensive team and a horrendous rebounding one. It's just hard to believe that we can overcome those shortcomings and win enough games in a not real good Big Ten to make it to March. The difference in...

    Famous Idaho Tators Bowl

    Northern Illinois vs Fresno State They scanned the crowd late in a tight game or at least the stands. No one there. How much longer can this massive bowl structure last? I can't imagine many Hawk fans attending the Bowl game this year. I suppose the clones will have a good crowd at Pop Tarts...

    So why is the Big Ten NOT a good basketball conference?

    Just watched a good Texas A&M team take down Purdue in Indianapolis. Do we have a top 15 team in the Big Ten? Oregon? Michigan? We had them on the ropes after a terrible start on the road. With Chicago and Detroit and other good recruiting areas shouldn't the Big Ten be better? I think It has...

    So Where is the Bar for Iowa Basketball

    Excellent point! Some of the posters are unsure how we can do this and maybe we should just look at the Iowa State program Hey we are both in Iowa and we are in the mighty Big Ten. If they can do it why not us?

    So Where is the Bar for Iowa Basketball

    I guess my suspicion was correct. Most (on this board) are happy with the current program. Not sure that would be true with the majority of Hawkeye fans as attendance and increasing apathy would indicate Let me just respond to some of the thoughts expressed above. First to resist change for...

    So Where is the Bar for Iowa Basketball

    Is it Beating 8 or 9 cupcakes in the non conference and then hoping to go 500 or a little better in the Big Ten get into the tournament as a 7 or 8 seed and maybe win a game to get demolished in the second game never to make it to the second weekend or if miss the tournament play in the NIT...
