    I loved Connor's quote after the game....

    Yes, it is him. He is a whining, dirty, flopping kid that even his own mother would hate.

    Toussaint / Fredrick Backcourt

    I think something to look for will be if we start running some sets for Joe T, just to add one more dimension to an already highly efficient offense. With CJ, Wieskamp and Garza on the floor with him, that gives us 4 players that can be a focal point at any point in time. CJ and Wieskamp will...

    Is there a single Big 10 player you really don't care for?

    Wisconsin's whole team, esp Davison and Reuvers Wagner Geo Baker - dont know why, just dont like him Cowan

    Toussaint / Fredrick Backcourt

    Watching Joe T run our offense the last 5 minutes was a thing of beauty. He has grown leaps and bounds in 20 games and if he keeps playing like that we will be an incredibly tough out no matter what tournament we play in.

    Silver Linings

    When we play lineups that dont include Pemsl or Evelyn, our offensive efficiency is as good as anyone in the country. This doesn't mean that we are always scoring points, it means we get what we want and get good shots. Sometimes there are nights when they all go in and sometimes they dont...

    BADGER BLOOD ALL OVER THE FLOOR SEMI OFFICIAL GAME THREAD

    Bad news: we cant shoot Good news: we are tied at half after playing terrible Bad news: Garza is being equalized by Reuvers and Potter Good news: maybe Garza won't leave after this year Bad news: Wieskamp and CJ haven't gotten enough shots Good news: Pemsl being on the bench Bad news...

    Biggest Game, YTD

    I think the stat to watch for our remaining games is three point shooting, because if we shoot even a respectable percentage it would take us turning the ball over a lot or there be a large descrepancy in foul shooting for our opponents to beat us. So for the next 2 games, this is what we have...

    I think we handle Wisconsin from the outset. I keep talking about offensive efficiency, but it truly is the metric for this team. We are so good on offense by way of taking quality shots 90% of the time and having the ability to get into our sets we want that it is a very difficult job to slow...

    We have to beat Wisconsin which we should, win at Maryland, and beat Illinois at home then we can see how it shakes out. Illinois wins at wisconsin, at Purdue and at Michigan, wow. We will have to beat them at their place too. MSU still has some road games left and they haven't been widely...

    Easily

    You know, up until a week or two ago I would have said that Garza will be definitely be back. However, with him being compared to Kamisky, Kamisky being a lottery pick and carving out a decent living in the NBA, and Garza almost being assured of being a first team all american and possibly...

    Easily

    I dont think division of minutes is going to be a big deal at all next year. Unless we have injury next year, our rotation will be Garza/JW/CJ/JT/CMac/JBo/Nunge and PMac more than likely. It is much easier to divide minutes with an 8 man rotation than a 10 or 11. Next year's scheme will be...

    Easily

    I think JBo is such an unselfish player it doesn't matter to him how many minutes he plays or if he starts. But rest assured he will be in the game in closing time. Probably the best free throw shooter in the league, best three point shooter, can handle the ball better than you think, smart...

    Short chain

    Joe T did a lot of great things tonight, and, on the opposite, Evelyn was terrible. I think we will see that from here on out that one of these guys may play good and the other not and Fran will play them. But no question Joe T brings the energy every game and I am sure he will figure it out...

    Next years team could be SALTY

    The liberal media would roast Fran and the university over the coals for being so racist they wouldn't allow a black player on the team! Its just the world we live in.

    Next years team could be SALTY

    I think next year's death lineup will consist of Garza/CJ/Wieskamp/JBo and the fifth player determined by who our opposition is and allows us the luxury of adding that specialty piece. CMac will definitely play a lot of minutes, and should, because of his ability to defend and IQ. JoeT could...

    Next years team could be SALTY

    For this year, the apparent lack of defense is not only necessary because of lack of depth, but really by design. When Garza, Wieskamp, CJ and CMac are on the floor together, we are so elite offensively and so incredibly efficient, it would take most of our opponents to operate at their...

    Better team?

    This team has grit, heart, toughness or whatever you want to call it, and they have it in spades. Everyone on the team is extremely unselfish, and whether we are on the road, at home, leading or trailing, all I see is everyone engaged and supportive. That kind of chemistry is so under-valued...

    Deuce Hogan

    This is just another indication of how healthy this program is. From everything I have ever heard, the coaches have always been very honest with the recruits and no promises are made. I am.sure that policy has cost Iowa some recruits in the past, but that is a very slippery slope and one that...

    Peyton Mansell in Transfer Portal

    I dont disagree with you in the slightest, having a quarterback with packet awareness and escapability would be a great thing. Probably the difference in wins and losses a lot of the time. He doesn't have to run for 100 yards a game or even break out the 30, 40 or 50 yard game, just know what...
