ISU vs. Drake

If Drake plays like this, they will be a tough win for us in IC.....

Don't underestimate how bad of a coaching job Hoiberg has done tonight. ISU has switched every screen all night, I don't think I've ever seen a college team do that. They've also ran maybe one offensive set all night.

ISU is blaming refs? dolph and cotlar are screaming at the refs so badly that i cant even tell whats going on in the game.
 
Hey, we're just setting ourselves up for an Elite 8 run a la 2000, when we lost to a bad Drake team!

Seriously, it's a bad loss. I think both of our teams will have some big ups and downs this year.

Isn't the game in Iowa City?

Plus, I think we are witnessing how much Bobby Lutz actually coached and how selfish Iowa State is. Lack any resemblance of a team right now. Live and die by Royce White.

Iowa is far more "polished" in a team aspect. We saw that the first 2 games by the way others step up. ISU probably has talent but doesn't equate to success always.

Yeah not surprising you missed the sarcasm there. After hearing all of last year and all summer about how good ISU was going to be with the transfers then Drake must be pretty damn good even if Drake lost to a D2 school in an exhibition.

I saw a lot of that over at cyfan with people comparing this game to that. But the big difference is ISU doesn't have a Tinsley to run the point like that team and will struggle all year without a true PG.

Well, I was totally being facetious. You are right about the PG problem.

I do think the team will gel and be OK, but definitely not world beaters.
 
ISU is horrible. We have some talent, but not much depth in the paint and no PG to speak of. We'll be lucky to finish .500

LOTS of talent....just not sure they can play together. Not sure the Mayor was recruiting players to play a system....or players that can just play. huge difference..
