    My Cy-Hawk Game Preview & Prediction

    Stanley first long pass against Rutgers was on the money. He actually hit the receiver in stride. The other two long passes were off the mark. If the vertical game is working and we pass at least 33% on first downs the running game opens up. My concern is that we play too conservatively -...

    Poll: Tyler Cook's Future

    TC is a mixed bag, led the team in scoring, rebounding, and turnovers, 92. Worst FT percentage among starters 64%, no outside shot beyond 6 feet of the basket. Body language after the Tennessee game - he's leaving (either G League or Europe). If he does leave, that takes a lot of pressure...

    The “Stealing Time from work and watching the Hawks” Thread

    We were pretty effective at holding Cumberland to his average. In fact he banked one in from way back to get to 18. Coaching staff put together a winning game plan IMO

    The “Stealing Time from work and watching the Hawks” Thread

    He played team ball in the four minutes. Besides the rebound he had a couple of great assists. Passing to Baer to give him the dunk was my favorite Cook play

    The “Stealing Time from work and watching the Hawks” Thread

    Hawks are clicking now. They look like a team that should be in the tourney. I like the chemistry of the team a little better with Cook sitting out.

    The “Stealing Time from work and watching the Hawks” Thread

    Most likely last game for Cook. why he is back in the Yeah, I get nervous when the ball is in his hands. If he is fouled best we get is one point

    2019 NCAA Iowa at Cincinatti in Columbus, Ohio, only 106 miles from Cincinatti prediction thread

    Actually I worry more about how TC handles the pressure. Cook could have 5 turnovers

    Whats the plan? How do we pull off the upset?

    Concentrate on defending Cumberland i.e. don't leave your defensive territory to help elsewhere. Also, take it to him on offense and try getting him in foul trouble. Limit his minutes and his open shots and we can beat the Bearcats.

    Howe: Big Dance a Watershed Moment for Hawkeye Program

    As usual a measured analysis of the program. However, I don't think we are at a crossroads. We made the NCAA tourney. Although fans and the media have higher expectations, the only person who matters is Barta. My guess is 2019 tournament bid makes it unlikely that Barta fires McCaffery...

    2019 NCAA Iowa at Cincinatti in Columbus, Ohio, only 106 miles from Cincinatti prediction thread

    Defending Cumberland will be key. Best player in the AAC. He went 1-7 from the beyond the arc, but still scored 33 of the Bearcats' 69 points in the League championship game against Houston. Under no condition should we play help defense on a driving player and let them pass it to an open...

    Iowa vs Illinois game thread

    Winning by 20+, no question about it, Iowa doesn't need worry about playing in the first round of the NCAA. I would still rather be a 10 seed than a 8/9

    Is it a given

    Nebraska's win-loss was just as bad and they beat us.

    I propose two "factions" for Thursday in predicting. Or call this a "poll"

    Another thing to predict - which player from ILL/NW will have a career game and/or come out of a shooting slump tomorrow.

    Is Iowa still a lock for the dance?

    I'm pretty certain that Iowa is going to lose regardless of who we play. My hope is that we lose to Northwestern (NET 88) rather than Illinois (NET 105) . If Illinois beats us, it will be a toss-up between Play In game vs NIT. However, losing to Northwestern we are definitely in the First...

    Wisconsin Strength Vs Iowa Strength

    Nothing at all against the kid, but it is really hard to imagine that anyone like this can be successfully in the B1G conference.

    Play in game?

    Something scary to think about ... If we lose, the Gophers beat the Terps and OSU beats Wisconsin our NET ranking would most likely be lower that OSU, Penn St, and possibly even Minnesota. Since Iowa is a small market state without any marquee player(s) and currently look pretty lifeless -...

    The Breakdown: Hawkeye Struggles Continue at Wisconsin

    That's generally what happens when you bring in a specialist or any other consultant- you may see some short term improvement but as soon as adversity arises people regress to their old ways.
