Lol

The new Illini coach said it best in her interview yesterday, "to be elite you have to emphasize defense". Iowa will struggle this year with athletic defensive minded teams. Lisa refuses to change her ways. The way we handled on ball screens all day says it all. No hedges not once, constant slip...

This...rampant

I would assume Cade has visited with him?

The Hall kid from Harlan is DeJean on steroids. I have watched him play the last few years. Don't count him out...of LB, and Cash discussion.

Amen...

And Perkins missed free throw...was huge

Seriously...how do you assess someone? In his face defensive pressure he wilts...one example.

After one game where ISU under performed. Murray still the engine that drives this team. Any team that shoots it like we did will win 99% of the time. Sanford still struggled, Patrick was tired and gets frequent breaks, Perkins played well, and Connor continues to impress.

Our season really rest on Murray. So far he is not mentally tough enough to work to get open and score. He will see this intensity all year. He just seems to melt away instead of demanding his touches. Perkins acts like he doesn't care half the time and Sanford is red faced and cold just waiting...

I'm hoping to see some wild cat with the Cooper

I keep seeing rumors of a new OC. Any leaks or scoops on coaching changes. Obviously not sure Cade goes to Iowa without some promises? Thanks guys...

Also, if you've noticed Monica's been getting doubled and triple teamed because you basically don't have to guard at least two or three other girls.

This staff has failed to capitalize on one of the most talented players to ever play women's basketball. We continue to have subpar athletes filling roles on a team that should clearly be in the top four. You are not going to tell me there are not long lean athletic girls that would love to play...

Agree Fryowa...they have a mobile QB, great receiver, tight end, and quality backs. Their online is awful, their defense is porous and they lost a couple D players Saturday. Key is getting ahead early and they will roll over and die.

The biggest problem may be the loss of Doyle. Just sayin

Haven't heard what is wrong with Johnson? Also what happened to Williams? Chances they play Saturday?

Unless our defensively philosophy changes nothing is going to change.
