Great game. I am really enjoying watching this team grow. It's going to be a fun next few years.

Good question. Fran seemed to go with starters - Moss + Baer down the stretch. Ellingson in when up one with the ball for free throws.

Yup. Moss is the starter, but Baer is one of our top 5 so needs to be out there at the end. He makes so many big plays for us.

Might not win at Nebraska. I would be very pleased with a 2-2 record right now.....
Win most of the home games and we just might be in a good position.....
The Lads from the state of Indiana might attempt to destroy this scenario. Purdue and Indiana that is. Other games we should win at Carver.....
The possiblility exists.....

5656 just cannot help himself. Still not admitting J Bo had a very good game. Deano is right, he is a troll and a poor one also.
He was very good offensively and the main reason we won

Somehow I get the impression that 56X2 digs the Hawkeyes.....

I would say Jordan and Pete both get top billing. Pete's drive and dish to Pemsl to tie the game late was a big play as well.

I agree. We gave up too many offensive rebounds today, but when they both buy into playing defense and boxing out, our defense will improve mightily.
They both have the bodies for rebounding for sure. It seems like something they can improve on quickly.

So, I have a question for you regarding this comment you made in regards to Wilson of Michigan. Career game today for him. However, he's a junior who didn't play much his 1st 2 seasons at Michigan . Wouldn't you normally call that player a bust? I mean his 1st start wasn't even until this year.

He was barely a top 100 recruit because he was a project. Plus he played behind some really good guys

Yes, but if a freshman doesn't contribute right away, or doesn't improve going into his sophomore year for Iowa, you are willing to write them off (Moss and Ellingson). Now, neither of those have the ceiling of Wilson, but you do see how players can sit, learn, practice and get better. Wilson played 11 minutes against Virginia Tech earlier this year, scored 2 points, and fouled out. Not a good game. It happens.

5656 has never understood the concept of basketball players improving with time. I think he should be a Kentucky fan.
I found that funny too. Fran has had a lot of players do what he did today but sucks at recruiting, yet Wilson doing it today is proof that Beilein can receuit?
That's not true
That why are you still quoting stats that take the whole season into account when there is a good sample size right now of Bohannon being a pretty good player?
