    CJ Fredrick

    There are hundreds of schools that are available to CJ via the transfer portal. Yet, there is only one that has been rumored for over a month now. He has not even entered the transfer portal as of yet, but if he winds up at Kentucky, as it seems everyone and his brother thought he would, isn't...

    Robbins to Vandy not a huge loss

    Maryland has supposedly improved enough to lead the league. Nebraska has a five star center coming in. Indiana has supposedly improved by the transfer portal. Michigan has the #1 recruiting class in the country coming in. Michigan St. always has great recruits. Illinois is adding some good...

    Robbins to Vandy not a huge loss

    All that is great, even though for most Hawkeye fans, the season ended a few games early. But frankly, time marches on and if JoeW does as well, we have about 30 points a game returning for next season and really nobody that has shown they can carry a team with consistent scoring. Yes maybe our...

    OFFICIAL 2021 CUBS BASEBALL THREAD

    The Cubs just look like such an anemic hitting team this season. Kind of odd when you have so many players that are playing for their next contract. Nine runs in the last five games (counting today's game in progress). I'd rather lose games 10-7 than 6-1.

    So are Spokane and Waco easier to recruit to than Iowa City???

    Yes they are. I think a lot of recruits think they have to wend their way through a maze of corn when in Iowa. Not to mention the less than progressive leadership in our state government. Plus, McCaffery insists on playing by the rules, whereas Baylor has a certain reputation, whether proved...

    Story: Jack Nunge Transferring to Xavier

    Hopefully a change of location will also change his luck, which has been nothing but bad.

    Liam Robbins in Transfer Portal!

    The entire Robbins thread just disappeared from HROT. Kind of odd. Makes me wonder if he made a choice that made posters unhappy and they went off on him, but I emphasize, that's just speculation on my part.

    NCAA Tourney Thread

    It would be like those old Boise St. football teams winning the National Championship.

    OFFICIAL 2021 CUBS BASEBALL THREAD

    They've looked better in game 2 and 3. Unfortunately, it looks like another year that the pitching is going to have to carry the load. Twelve hits in the first three games and a team BA of .143. Pretty weak, but it's early.

    Roy Williams Retiring

    NCAA is probably closing in again and he can't handle another slap on the wrist.

    NCAA Tourney Thread

    I think Baylor's defense will give Gonzaga some issues. They don't see that type of intensity out of the WCC.

    transfer portal news

    I think Fran will get someone, but the choice will be underwhelming and baffling.

    OFFICIAL 2021 CUBS BASEBALL THREAD

    I see no one else started this thread, so I will. Watched a few of the Cubs Spring ball games and they didn't look too bad. Now, they come home for the season opener and lay a gigantic 2 hit egg for their fans. I know it is only one game, but this is exactly how the Cubs have looked when...

    returning career points

    Someone is going to have to score next year. I'm not all that positive that JoeW is gone, but if he is, the scoring opportunities will be wide open.

    Marcus Santos-Silva

    I think I've read he is 6'7" and 265 pounds. He would probably start for us at center.

    Luka Garza Wins Naismith, Caitlin Clark WBCA All-American

    The parallels between our men's team and our women's team are pretty dramatic. They had very similar blueprints for success this season. I guess you could say that Iowa has a "type."

    Izzo puts hands on his own player going into half

    Part of the player thinking it was all right to jaw back and forth with tiny tom was the kind of relationship he has fostered with his players, which I believe to be a dissolution of clear authoritarian lines. Sometimes that come back to bite you. The player believes he is on an equal level as...

    Was Oregon really that athletic?

    Even with the added weight and muscle the team put on, we still look like boys playing against men in some of our games.

    Was Oregon really that athletic?

    I think it was a perfect storm for our defeat. Oregon was the ONLY team that got a bye in the first round. Maybe VCU gives them a tough, draining game or actually beats them. We played the last game on Saturday and then the first game on Monday. CJ, JBo, Cmac and JW all nursing nagging...

    Who is GCU?

    Their best big and top scorer is a transfer from Wichita St. where he did absolutely nothing. I think Luka is going to be a real eye opener for him. Hopefully the refs don't get too involved unless the game turns into hacking Garza and hoping for the best.
