The last time Iowa faced Cincinnati was in the NCAA Tournament as a 10 seed. That was the beginning of the end for Alford as well. History repeating itself?

Likely punishing them because of our head coach and the embarrassment he is. They also know there is a common late season collapse theme with them. Doesn’t deserve rewarding.

Iowa got what it deserved thanks to their once again late season collapse. Brutal draw against a great defensive and physical team. And on their home court basically. I’ll take Cincy 75-55. None and done for the Hawkeyes.

Type of players they are allowed to have (Big 12 vs Big 10 academic requirements) and types of dudes Prohm recruits are much more athletic and talented than Fran’s recruits. Also Fran failing to join the transfer market. It’s been a huge mistake of his. ISU has a far superior AD and Prohm is a...

Iowa would be much better fit in the Big 12 honestly. Style of play, less physical teams, 4 less teams, only have to win 3 games in tourney. The highest seeded Big 12 team will be a 5 maybe 4 seed. The tourney champs will be a 5. They were weak this year.

But it didn’t. Iowa is locked in on the dreaded 8/9 seed line thanks to how they finished the season. Get Duke if they even win their first round game. If people don’t think the committee will take that in consideration you’re kidding yourself.

There is no way Cyclone fans want him gone. He’s won 3 Big 12 Championships and gone to a sweet 16 and make the NCAA all but 1 year. Iowa hasn’t had that kind of March success in 20 years combined!

This will have no affect in Iowa’s seeding whatsoever.

When you have a coaching era that is completing their 9th year and the expectations are getting their ass handed to them in the BTT and not play on a Saturday for the 13th straight year, that’s a problem. When ISU continues to show up in March situations, even after a uninspiring regular...

Haven’t seen Tousaint play a single second of Big Ten basketball. He is also 5’10” so I would not get hopes up on him. Scott Doc of the Athletic even said he wouldn’t expect much more than 10 minutes a game for him as he is a project. Fans want a game changing PG so badly they are expecting...

One of these years Iowa will be good in the post season. Just not anytime soon. Freaking pathetic when it comes to March. Embarrassing.

So sick and tired of Iowa not showing up when it matters in March and then having to suffer through another Cyclone March run. It’s insufferable. When will the Hawkeyes be relevant in March? New coaching era in a few years?

It is but never surprises me the local media gloss over how ISU has to play one less (sometimes 2 less) games than the BTT to win it and the weak opponents they draw in the NCAA Tournament. Then when they reach Sweet 16 they actually have to face better teams than them and lose. Then again...

I wish the Big Ten Tournament was as easy to win as the Big 12 Tournament is. Only 10 teams to begin with and inferior to those of the Big 10 as well.

This is what irritates me even more regarding Fran's flame outs in March tournaments, only Big Ten school to NEVER make it to Friday since 2014 yet, 13 seed Nebraska will play on Friday. The players change every year but one constant has remained...the head coach. Fran flames out again tonight...

What makes Iowa's late season struggles even worse is that ISU seemingly every year they are in the post-season they rise to the occasion regardless of their seeding. Therefore, that fanbase and media rave about their program and further embarrass Iowa.

They should not watch any TV along with no Twitter so they can avoid "outside noise"

God, that’s awful. Iowa also the ONLY Big Ten team to not play in Quarterfinals in the BTT since 2014! Even Rutgers has!

Will be large amount of Illinois fans in attendance. Not many for Iowa. My Illinois buddy says they got easiest and best draw they could get in BTT. Everyone wants Iowa right now. Illinois - 85, Iowa - 71 tomorrow night. Iowa ends up in the Play-In game in Dayton and “makes the NCAA Tournament”
