    Wisconsin storyline

    So if Iowa beats Wisconsin on Saturday does that mean the Hawks are really good? Or not a good win because Wisconsin is overrated? If Wisconsin wins does that mean they are a legit playoff contender or not that good because Iowa isn't that good and it's not a good win?

    Conference predictions

    I'm excited for football but also ready for hoops season. I've read about every publication you could possibly read and ready to take a stab at the conference prior to season tipping off. Always comes back to bite me: 1. Michigan--great returning corp and an excellent coach in Beilein...

    Looks like Bo Ryan isn't done

    Reports are that he might now coach 4-5 more years. Maybe his health issues cleared up? Maybe he saw that UW wasn't going to give the job to Greg Gard? Maybe he saw the cupboard wasn't bare? Either way let me be the first to say F---!!! Was hoping only to have to deal with him 1 more year...

    Wisconsin candidate

    Here's your LOL moment of the day. Wisconsin is apparently considering Steve Alford as a possible replacement for Bo. That has got to be a joke right? Or wishful thinking on Alford's part?

    Wisconsin inks 6-11 Euro

    Andy Van Vliet. Never heard of the kid. Seriously, is that what going to back-to-back Final Fours and having the NPOY will do for recruiting? Color me unimpressed.

    Remember when Fran "owned" Bo?

    What happened? It seemed like FM had Bo's number and had Wisconsin figured out and that was with worse talent than we have now. Lost 5 in a row. What changed?

    Wisky vs Puke

    How does Wisconsin get sportscenter to air their show from Madison?? God, I hope they lose that game in front of such a big audience. Lose badly. I think Duke has too much NBA talent for Wisky to handle.

    Uthoff 2 years later

    Since everyone is talking about the Lebron decision to go back to the Cavs I thought it'd be interesting to look back at the Uthoff decision to come back to Iowa and see how people see him finishing out his career as a Hawk. I think he's the most talented player on the team (probably a tie...

    Frank Kaminsky's blog

    Very self deprecating and revealing. Calls the NBA "boring". Funny that's what people have called Wisky basketball but admittedly they got out and ran this year.

    Elite 8 predictions

    I predict Florida winning big in the first game. I predict Arizona taking it to Wisconsin as well. I think Arizona's defense really shuts down Wisconsin's offense

    My opinion of the Wisconsin coach is changing

    ANAHEIM, Calif. — Let me introduce you to college basketball's invisible genius. His name is Bo. Oh, you know Bo. But we tend not to notice him, because Coach K hordes the championship rings, the silver tongue of John Calipari drops sweeter sound bites and Rick Pitino wears shinier shoes...

    B1G Sweet Sixteen games

    Who wins tonight? Iowa has as good of knowledge as anyone on these teams and their opponents. Played Baylor in the NIT championship last year, beat Virginia at Virginia last year and met Tennessee last week. I've got the B1G going 2-1 in this round. I think Michigan rolls Tennessee by 7+...

    What would other B1G coaches do with Iowa's roster?

    Miles--probably better than 9-10 Matta--better than 9-10 Izzo--better Ryan--better. Hell Bo fought like hell to keep one of our bench players averaging 7ppg Beilein--much better Pitino--doing better now with lesser talent.

    I'd trade fast paced/high scoring for defense

    I wouldn't want Todd Lickliter mind you but giving up 79, 95, 93 with a team that returned so many players and minutes is ridiculous. Defense is at least something you can rely on game to game

    Has the program lost momentum?

    It seems like after the hawks tourney run last year that the program was poised to start putting itself into position for top half conference finishes every year under Fran. It looked like the hawks were on their way up and programs like Wisconsin/OSU were on their way down. Fast forward to...

    Bo vs Fran

    It seemed like yesterday that Fran had Bo's number and it looked like we were going to go on a huge run of success against Wisconsin. 3 straight losses later and now Bo is up on Fran and as a fan I'm left to wonder what the hell happened. wisconsin scored 79 points on us at home?! what the heck?!

    Miller's Power rankings

    Couple of thoughts: --I don't see how OSU isn't listed at #1 if Jon says his rankings are "right now". Beat Iowa @Iowa certainly deserves to have them ranked over the hawks and they also won @Wisconsin just prior. Solid wins. People went crazy and jumped off of the ledge during their losing...

    Where was Uthoff?

    Did he even play in the second half? I thought the hawks would be getting a lot more from him at this point. i also thought he'd be getting more minutes

    Uthoff's production since OSU game

    Minn---4pts Mich---2pts NW----2pts MSU---4pts Really need more production out of him. Also maybe Fran needs to give him more minutes to get comfortable? He played 15 minutes in a 50 minute OT game. Is the more physical play getting to him? Are teams guarding him differently?

    Fran needs to control himself

    This was the SECOND game where the difference in the final score came down to a technical Fran got. Izzo works the refs too but he doesn't look like he's lost his marbles. Fran looks unglued
