    Miller: Hawkeyes Breeze Past MES

    Once upon a time, teams had the luxury off redshirting players like Woodbury, knowing the extra year of development would pay great dividends. That is rare now. Defending quick guards seems an issue. Even though the didn't always score, MES's guards got to the basket more often than I like. And...

    *Way too early Official Iowa Vs. UNO Game Thread**

    On a local note, Rylan Murry (West Branch's first ever D1 BBall recruit) plays for UNO. They haven't decided on whether to redshirt him for his first season, so his one chance for play for a hometown crowd may be as a cheerleader from the bench. Rylan Murry Bio - Omaha Athletics

    If you would have had a decent midle school language arts teacher, you wouldn't be making misteaks like that.

    What about Jok??

    Am I wrong to assume that the FOY will often be a top ten NBA draft pick the following year?

    Predict the Starting Lineup to Open the Season

    I love the "Who Will Start?" question, but I also noticed that I have never seen a team with so many viable combinations that could realistically take the floor during important parts of the game as opposed to giving the top players a breather. I quickly counted at least ten variations that were...

    Miller: Athletes are ALREADY Getting Paid

    Ignoring the whole (not trivial right-wrong/fair) argument, what if a players union takes off and several top programs have significant players (numbers and importance) threaten to sit out a big game. Would that change the landscape? Sure, go ahead and scream to 'fire the strikers,' but in the...

    Iowa @ Iowa State (Basketball)

    I think that the two boards should create a real physical traveling trophy. The winning board mod (Jon Miller for us) would maintain physical possession and a photo of the trophy provided by the winner (in an appropriate setting, of course) would have to be pinned to the top of both basketball...

    Who's the starting five next year?

    I wasn't very correct last summer. McCaffrey's pattern of minutes was quite different than his last year at Sienna. I would guess that he would continue to determine minutes based on individual situations more than we see from most other coaches. In the July 2012 2012-13 "Minutes & Roster...
