“We want to go in there and make a statement — set the tone and send a message both to Iowa and the country,” Monte Morris said before Tuesday’s practice. “We’re trying to go out there and beat them badly."

“It’s been a Cyclone state, and we want to continue that,” said Naz Mitrou-Long, who was on the team, yet didn’t see the floor, the last time Iowa beat Iowa State back in 2012. “This game is a big-time deal.”

There will be some ugliness. There will be smack. There might even be a peck.

“I don’t think Georges planned that kiss [two years ago, at the end of the game, Niang blew a kiss to the Iowa Student Section],” Long said.

Niang was a lightning rod, with the ability to back it up.

“I have to carry the trash talking load since he left,” Morris said. “The kiss — I thought it was big time for a big-time player to do that. That just sparked a rivalry.”

What if there’s a smooching situation around 9 p.m. Thursday?

“I have a surprise up my sleeve,” Morris said. “It’s better than a kiss.”

the whole story:
 
Let your play do the talking Monte. You don't have to become your teams little bitch like Georges was just because he's gone.

Just a classless group of thugs. You didn't hear any of that garbage when we kicked their ass 42-3 in football.

What makes them thugs? Sounds like confidence to me and a little arrogance. Iowa needs a little swagger and attitude themselves.

42-3, that was an ass whooping. Lol
 
I'd love to see Bohannon and Jok drop 60 on them tonight. Just launching 3's from everywhere. Wishful thinking I know, but for how much they all made fun of those two recruits it would be a fitting kick to the nuts for Cyclone fans. Lord knows they are used to being kicked in the nuts.

Cyclone fans made fun of Jok as a recruit? ISU wanted him so that's stupid

Of course they did. As soon as they stopped recruiting him because of violations it became "we didn't want him anymore because of his bad knees". They were busy slobbering all over Matt Thomas' knob saying he's way better than Jok.

Thomas was a better recruit but Jok has had a much better career and is the better player

I don't mind a little swagger, but talking trash, and acting like a punk is just stupid. To me, it's more of a statement to beat their ass, and walk off the field or court like that "yep that's what we expected"

I agree, but the problem is we don't expect it and the reason we don't expect is because it seems like they win most of them.
 
I hope we can do it.....I hate'em like the rest of you, and I do hope Pemsl kind of gets into it a little, get tge student section going...

Probably will put Matt Thomas on Jok from the tipoff. He played Uthoff very well last year in the second half, effectively neutralizing him after his outstanding first half that had the announcers raving.....
 
I was somewhat concerned before I read this stupidity from Morris, what a tool. Now that should provide us with a bit more incentive.....

I would imagine Peter Jok resents being poked in the eye in the second half, especially when he was the only Hawk on the floor scoring with any consistency.....

Prohm really should rein in this nonsense. Can't imagine Fran permitting his troops talking trash.....

At least the refs won't be influenced by the rabid animals cheering for the clones, fervently booing Every call
that doesn't go their way.....

Still I think this will be a loss, hopefully a close game. We did play rather well at Notre Dame and against Seton Hall at Carver.....

We really need a good start. Can't fall behind the clones from the opening tip. Would be ugly to play them from behind the entire game.....

Pemsl could be the difference. I would imagine they will attempt to saddle him wirth fouls right away. He must be careful out there. Hope AWag is healthy. We need his strength and attitude on the floor.....

Looking forward to this one, Lads.....

Fk Florida, we will deal with them down the road. Right now it is time to kick some cloneass.....
