Game Thread: Hawkeyes vs the Alcorn State Braves

[KnightHawk26]

This team cannot shoot. Has that been commented on?

heard it somewhere before.

With the exception of a few interesting plays its been a pretty lackluster first half. This is one of those games where team and crowd energy are very low and your discipline has to carry you through.

F'n ugly. My goodness. We have to warm up at some time, right??

Nogothree is still trying to find his shot after four years. Two wide open shots missed. Why would an opposing D even put a guy on him. Need to cut back his play time and let Jok and Uhl develope.

I can understand fans not being in the seats. One of the worst teams in the country and an 8 PM game. It will be rocking Friday.

 

[KnightHawk26]

This is a game that probably should have been stream only.

Barta is currently parading noteable donors across the court and "recognizing" them. Times are gettin tough, I guess. Probably buttering them up for football ticket renewals.

Josh plays D, handles the ball surehandedly with very few TOs, passes very well, can't shoot even when open, seems very reluctant to shoot, then thinks about it shoots and misses.....

At least Jok is coming along, should be getting more minutes this game.....

Before the season, the plan was to have at least three snipers to open the middle for Aaron, Woody and Greg. Jok, Josh, Uthoff and perhaps Brady keeping the D honest.....

Right now we cannot depend on Josh to score.....

There's only about 5k here. Pretty lackluster effort up til now. Ive been waiting for Alcorn St to put in #11. Program lists him at 5'9 but i noticed one of the ball boys looking down on him. Pretty sure he's 5'0.

So Iowa has a 7 footer that struggles to dunk and a three point shoter that can only hit the ally-oop pass.

Things that make you scratch your head.

that and lice.

That was nice, Sapp to Aaron.....

Love Uthoff, Bo cryed tears of blood when he came back home.....

 

[BlindDogScooter]

Uthoff is having a game!

 

[jacknicholson]

We have more players who can play the point than most, Mike G, Sapp, Trey, Josh, and Woody.....

Woody might not start at the point however.....

Remember 5'7" Spud Webb who won the NBA Dunk Contest during the All Star Game.....

If players other than Uthoff could shoot Iowa would be up by 30.

 

[jacknicholson]

Good reactions from Mike G

that and lice.

Well played.

 

[jacknicholson]

Could we be playing this way to fool the Clones when they watch the game tape. More of that psychocological warfare. Very clever strategy.

Good work under the basket by Jaryd and Greg....
