This is one of my most favorite quotes I have ever read on this here family blog.

I'm sad to hear of the passing of such a legend. Just because I am an Iowa State fan doesn't mean I can't enjoy and respect such a great human being. This is a sad day for the state of Iowa and this Cyclone fan is hugging and kissing his radio in remembrance of a fallen icon.

Nice work. I deleted the post because I also said feel free to flame me. I was going to add in an edit, but no worries. I take responsibilities for being on the defensive after last night. I see Iowa finishing 10-8 in the conference and going to the big dance. Edit: My undergrad is from U of...

I really like Jok. I have seen him play several times at Valley. He has had issues with injuries, but he has a huge upside. I know you gave 5 options, but here are my thoughts. I think he will be much better than people realize his freshman year. There will be some growing pains (and I...

I never thought he would start (and I didn't say that in my write up). Most back-up freshman point guards don't average almost 19 minutes a game. They usually get anywhere from 2 - 9 minutes a game and average 1 -3 points a game. I think he is providing quality minutes and is in the game...

I think Clemmons has performed better than I thought as a freshman. What I really like about Clemmons is that it allows Gesell to play the off-guard. Gesell is too good to not have him on the court and Clemmons allows for a different type of look that will grow with time. Clemmons is 10/31...

I'd hate to see the Iowa/ISU game go, but playing a 10 game schedule would have to warrant it. 9 games, maybe the Iowa/ISU game could continue, but I don't see it for Iowa. It is not that Iowa would be afraid to play Iowa State, but more about keeping healthy for a brutal 10 game B1G schedule...

Iowa and Iowa State fans can bash heads, but we both can agree that Wisconsin basketball is the worst. I would rather be forced to go to a chick flick my wife chooses than watch Wisconsin basketball.

It's hard storming the court when your entire fan base is bored/asleep or are now diagnosed Narcoleptics from too much Wisconsin basketball exposure (exposure as defined by the American Medical Association as basketball viewed longer than 1 hour in duration multiple times a week).

No offense activebadger, but I like to watch Wisconsin basketball because it helps me fall asleep. Who needs Ambien when you have the Badgers playing anyone? I was even at the Wisconsin vs Minnesota home game on Feb 28th last year and saw some of the worst basketball I have seen played in...

I liked what I saw yesterday from the Hawks. That game could have gotten away from them, but they came back with tough play after tough play. The B1G is a meat-grindor conference and Iowa will have some really nice wins when it is all said and done. Outside of the Michigan game (which is...

Cyclone fan here. I posted in the thread in question. I was born in 1982 and I remember the death of Chris Street. It was so sad and it transcended any form of rivalry the two schools have. I remember crying for several days. Chris had a great smile and was a heck of a ball player. It was a...
