The Aggies trailed New Mexico by 17 with 9:26 left in the first half, but Castillo hit a jumper from the top of the key with 5.3 seconds left that sent the game into overtime tied 73-73.
I note that the Lobos won the game 84-78.
That puts NMexico at 6-1 this year,and 82-26 under SA.
Iowa since SA left? 42-62.
At Iowa, winning records is a blast from the SA past. He has won 40 more games in the 3+ years at NM than his successors at Iowa have won....I miss the past and winning.
I dislike Mr. Alford as much as anyone...however, it wasn't all Steve's fault. The University has to share in that blame too.Wow, you have a short memory.
So, how many NCAA tournament games has he won at N.M.?
What sort of competition does N.M. play?
I couldn't be more happy than to see Alford sent to purgatory for what he did to the Iowa program and couldn't be more excited about our current coach.
Iowa is still rebuilding from the mess he started.

This subject has been beaten to death over the years
Should have just stopped right there.
Short memory? Not really. Been following Hawkeye bb since Ralph Miller.
I do remember 7 consecutive winning seasons from 2001-2007.
I remember zero winning seasons from 08 to now.
NM has won one NCAA tourny game since SA took over 3 years ago. Iowa has not won a single BTT game since he left....but won 13 while he was here.
Competition? Teams like Dayton,Creighton, Southern Ill,Cal,Texas Tech,BYU,San Diego St. Utah....you know,teams that would kill Iowa.
I like our current coach very much so far, while I did not like our last coach. But SA won games at Iowa, and had Iowa at 4th place or better in the Big Ten in 3 of his last 4 seasons. Iowa has not been better than 10th since he left. I liked being in the upper half,no matter who the coach was.

I'm just not sure why you guys are still crying about Alford. Alford was twice the coach Lick was. I guess it shows just how much some people truly hated Alford(it influences their opinion of his coaching abilities).
I was never a big Alford fan. But man alive, Lickliter tried to convince us that his son should have been playing more minutes for Iowa last season. And he didn't even try to find walk-ons that were capable. We were just told this was the best Iowa had to offer. Didn't take Fran long to disprove that theory.
I guess my point is that the Alford era looked like the golden years compared to what Lick did to this program.
burky, not once did I mention Lick but I will now. alford & bowlsby started this train wreck. They drove it to the cliff. Lick just threw a piece of coal in the fire and made sure that the train didn't stop until it crashed into the ravine. Why Barta hired Lick is beyond my comprehension. Why he gave him a 7 yr contract is dumbfounding. What could Lick have possibly said in the interview that would have blown Barta away?
