    Fran's postgame

    It's partially coaching but a lot is on the players. Gesell has been horrible all season and most of his career at the end of games. He bricks and open 15 footer to tie and then nearly turns it over with 4 secs left only to throw a terrible inbounds pass and turn it over anyway. Gesell and...

    Fran is the worst bench coach since...

    Correct me if I am wrong but coaches cannot call a timeout from the bench this year. It has to be called by a player on the floor. Clemmons and Uthoff both turned it over with a timeout available. Two seniors that are being trusted to inbound the ball because of their experience and they both...

    My Hilton Experience

    The official under the hoop saw that Morris elbow and pretended like it didn't happen. He started over towards Morris and then just stopped. It wasn't a violent elbow or anything but it was at a dead ball and should have been looked at.

    That's the #4 team??

    ISU just does not play good defense. Uthoff was wide open on his 3's in the 1st half. Thomas got away with a lot of hand checking and grabbing him off screens in the 2nd half but he was effective. I still don't get why Iowa didn't use that timeout on one of those two final inbound plays...

    helmet to helmet

    Not trying to complain. Just wondering honestly on the int in the end zone was it not helmet to helmet? I was watching with no volume so I couldn't hear any discussion

    Somehow Iowa does it....well thanks Jok

    Iowa didn't exactly light it up. Uthoff had his worst game. Iowa missed the front end of 3 1-1's. Gesell had a few uncharacteristic unforced turnovers in the 1st half. Iowa really played poorly overall and still came away with the win. Who would of ever thought Woody would be our most...

    Woodbury + Olaseni =

    I agree with most of your post but he is not an average leaper even for his size. To be 7' and not be able to just go straight up under the hoop and dunk it is not average. You see plenty of high school kids 4-5 inches smaller that can go up off two feet and dunk.

    Iowa City West destroys Minneapolis team on Sat

    Still not as good as the Ames team from early 2000's or the Mason City team from the late 90's

    Let's see if I have this straight......can't be right

    Ellingson had offers from Missouri and Utah amongst several others. His offers were much better than what Lohaus got. They are interchangeable imo. Lohaus would not see considerable minutes for Iowa.

    Let's see if I have this straight......can't be right

    Get over it. Lohaus was 2-6 for 6pts against Iowa in 17 mins. 0-2 from three with an airball A lot of coaches don't see what you apparently see because his second best offer was from Rice.

    Apparently Baylor and ISU think the 3 point shot is just about the only shot to take

    Re: Apparently Baylor and ISU think the 3 point shot is just about the only shot to t Good points! ISU's schedule looks ok SOS wise but their 3 toughest games have been at home. BYU is their best road win and that doesn't look as good as it once did. BYU is coming off losses to Loyola and...

    These were the 3 best refs that graded out to get the Nat Champ game?

    That was the biggest travesty of the game...Burke (the ap player of the year) having to sit out because a guy on the three point line jumps sideways into him and gets the call. That was a horrendous call.....Although spike did a great job of picking up the slack, he is not nearly the all around...

    ***OFFICIAL Iowa vs Derps NIT FINAL FOUR game thread***

    He's held his own against len who is supposed to be an eventual lottery pick this year or next. Pretty petty comment considering the past few games woodbury has had. Do you not see improvement?

    My thoughts exactly. Fatty has 2 assists, 2 pts and 3 turnovers

    We don't deserve an NCAA berth

    128 middle school games and two AAU games. You are edumucated. Dude, seriously, the refs swallowed their whistles for about 6-7 minutes in the 2nd half and became completely inconsistent with the way the first 30 minutes of the game was called. MSU is obviously the more aggressive and...

    the completely unofficial "Fran lost this game" thread

    Fran knew this team was young and thought building confidence earlier in the season with winning games was more important than learning the hard way. It worked...this team met or exceeded most or all expectations. 20 wins and .500 in the conference was really all one could ask for coming...

    We don't deserve an NCAA berth

    If they are going to call White for that foul that late in the game, Marble should get the same call. Iowa had opportunities earlier in the game to expand their lead and they didn't. The refs are never 100% responsible for a loss, but it just takes one or two missed calls at the right time to...

    We don't deserve an NCAA berth

    There are 65 teams in the tourney...you don't think Iowa should be in one of those spots because they lost in the last minute of 5 games against ranked teams? 3 of those 5 are against top 10 competition and the other 2 are top 25 or were at the time. It's disappointing now doubt, but to say...

    Iowa current RPI 70!!!

    It will be in the 60's win or lose tonight, unfortunately RPI won't matter if the Hawks lose this game.

    RPU just improved 11 points

    It sure seems like a compelling argument given the other bubble teams. .500 in the best conference with 3 wins over top 50 in MN, WI and IL
