    Iowa's worst player!

    The fans! Being an alumni It is shocking to see Carver empty? I was there in The BJ Armstrong era. Carver was always packed solid. Never an empty seat. Lets be real there isn't that much going on in Iowa that would be more exciting or entertaining than watching Iowa basketball!

    why this loss may actually be beneficial

    if iowa had won this brutal battle they would be playing another physical game for the 3rd day in a row. ‘we have two injured players that need the recovery time. playing 3 days in a row against physical teams is brutal. on a mental level hopefully this loss will light a fire under the hawks...

    The truth about CJ injury and the silver lining

    Being in the health care industry I thought I would provide some insight into possible injury. What is not being shared with us is the exact injury CJ has, In other words which bone is involved and what grade stress reaction. This makes a big difference in prognosis. Certain bones heal faster...

    Why this really is about coaching

    There are coaches players develop beyond their expected abilities and surprise the world. Have we seen any? There are coaches that their coaching style is so good that players want to be on their team no matter the size of the school or location. University of Iowa is an excellent school with a...

    Sorry to the haters but that was great coaching!!

    Imposters in Iowa uniforms, where did they go?

    I decided to rewatch Iowa's game against Iowa state from the beginning of this year. I watched that game and the last Ruttgers game in slo-mo. If you have the Iowa state game taped or any of their early games watch them. In the Iowa state game the passing and ball movement was at a different...

    The Maryland loss lesson in disguise

    I thought the first half defense By Iowa was the best I have seen in years. It really was the defense that even gave them a chance in that game given the poor shooting. I think they have actually played below their capabilities in the last several games. What worries me most is their over...

    Let's be honest!

    That was excellent coaching by Fran throughout this tournament!!! I noticed as soon as Iowa had a slump in either game he immediately called time out that is something he has not done in the past. His use of the bench has been excellent. He took players out quickly that were slumping or...

    A different view point

    I thought for the first time this team showed significant improvement Their close out on the three point shooters was way better They played more as a team For the majority of the game the ball movement was much better The turn overs were much improved. This is a young team and what we saw...

    have the players quit

    What do you think? Watching the game it really seemed that most of the players could care less? Look at Tyler Cook. I felt he totally played without any effort? I don't know if its just me but he seemed to be playing with an attitude almost pouting? Same with Moss Regardless of talent or...

    bench the primadonnas!

    really doesn't bother me when Iowa plays hard and looses. Doesn't bother me when they loose to talent. Very bothered to see a lackluster effort by several players. If I was coaching I would bench Cook and Moss they are the most talented and lately have been playing with no fight. Would rather...

    Why we lost to Indiana in the tournament

    I rewatched the entire game last night in slow-motion (extremely painful) here are just a few thoughts what do you think? In the first half Iowa's defense was below average but Bohannons 3 points and excellent play by Moss kept us in the game. The real fun started the second half. If you watch...

    Fran coached an excellent game!

    I thought the coaching was great during this game. The substitutions were outstanding. He definitely got all the players good rest so at the end of teh game they could turn up the intensity. Love this team as they really play with heart. It also seems the team chemistry is much better than last...

    what we learned from the nebraska game

    1) Iowa has incredible heart and fight 2) Fran took a time out at exactly at the right time in the second half to stop Nebraska momentum 3) The defense has significantly improved 4) Jok is amazing and they are figuring out to get everyone else involved first and use Jok later 5) Moss is going to...
