My preseason optimism has nothing to do with how I feel after losses. I seem to be in the minority in that regard judging by posts on here. I don't get how someone can not get pissed as much after a loss just because they didn't have hope preseason and I don't get how you can get more pissed if you had more hope in the preseason. Who cares what you thought before the season? A loss stings the same reguardless.

I get way more mad if we lose a game I expect to win
How would you know? I doubt you've ever thought we were better than an opponent.
You shouldn't lose to Omaha or Illinois at home, I don't care how bad you are

Mr. Janny, is this you trolling HN? Or did CyTwins just read Mr. Janny's post and come running over here to post it as well? Here is what was posted on Cyclownfanatics about an hour before you posted the poll.......I mean I'm sure that is just a coincidence and all.
I was wondering when someone was going to take that bait. I've been dangling it out on the line for a while.
400+ responses. 74% answered the question "Will Iowa Men's Basketball make the NCAA tournament this season?" with a Yes.

A Clown fan named Mr. Janny posted the exact same poll link and was using it to mocking Iowa, saying nearly the same thing as you not less than an hour before you did.....hmmmmmm, I wonder where you got the idea......
It was probably one of the easiest things I've ever searched and found. I was right like usual, most people didn't think this team would be bad and I got crucified for saying they would be

I fail to see what is wrong with a fan base being optimistic about their team. I'm not sure if I participated in that poll or not but before the season started I didn't like our chances at being a NCAA Tourney team. But had I voted no I sure in the heck wouldn't be on here rubbing fellow Hawkeye fans noses in it. To be honest I'm a little surprised at how close we were to being a tournament team. Switch the results on Omaha, Nebraska, and either Minnesota or Illinois and we are all sitting here talking about ways Iowa could get in.
The results of this season suck but the team has been competitive and fun to watch. The team has talent and will be good for a few years.

That's the bitch of running a troll like you are.....you are on Clownfantasies so much, that the ridiculousness of their arguments begin to look good to you. The only two people on the planet that I have ever seen talk about shot attempts per game and FG% were on Cyclownfantasies site.......and you here.
I mean the further I got back in that ridiculous Basketball thread of theirs, the more I see you mirroring what they were saying........I'm sure it is just all coincidence tho.....
I literally have no idea what you're talking about. There are a ton of posters on here that reference FG%. You're an odd guy

Who else started pointed out Jordan's shot attempts other than you and Clownfanatics ? Who else claimed Jordan shot too much besides you and clownfanatics?
You were using quoting Jordan's 2 pt FG% early in the seasons, that was crazy odd, I've never seen it before....then it morphed into just FG%....the progressions followed Clownfanatics perfectly.
I still think he shoots too much. He's not an efficient scorer

I know you think this, you have been saying it all year on Cyclonefanatic and here, so yeah it is obvious this is what you think.
No I haven't. I've never even been over on their forums there.

It is really uncanny how 56 just basically regurgitates what is said about Jordan on Cyclonefanatics all over this site.

So it is just a coincidence that you think EXACTLY like Clown fans who are mocking Iowa? Got it.
Why would you go over there? I'm not surprised clone fans don't think Bohannon is good, I'm sure they bash Jok and Cook too.
I think Bohannon is bad, are you surprised clone fans think the same thing? Take off your tin foil hat
