Seth Tuttle

Actually Tuttle is a good player. He wouldn't put up those stats in a real conference though. I don't want to put Tuttle down but fairfax makes it hard to separate UNI from fairfax loser.

Yeah what he appears to not comprehend, most of us cheer for UNI when they don't play Iowa, but he's actually made people like me root against UNI. Had he showed up and said good things about UNI and not tried to hate on Iowa, Id probably be right there with him. Unfortunately he's just a troll
 
+1 on Tuttle being a good player. He would be a solid Big Ten player "this" season but wouldn't be posting the same numbers going up against other teams with guys his size or bigger night in and night out. Also, as a recent graduate from UNI, I'm not letting Fairfax stop me from cheering for my alma mater. Although, he does make it easier to not care if they lose...
 
Happy that Tuttle is having a great year. I'd say the majority of iowa fans are happy to see a local boy develop this much and have this success.

Fairfax is a sad little man and his act is old. Do you really have nothing better to do than grasp at straws and spew framed numbers to make your asinine arguments?

It's a great year for basketball in iowa. Stop embarrassing yourself and enjoy it.

Wait, this can't be real. Whar George Naismith?! I mean Niang. DQ'ed for being too good?
 
I have appreciated Tuttle being a solid player, regardless of what conference he's in....Like many others have said, Fairfax has made it almost impossible for the rest of us to enjoy the fact that he's having a really good season....My sons played against him, and were teammates of Nate Buss, so I have an appreciation for players from small schools that have made it....Is he deserving to be on this list, absolutely....hope they do well in the MVC tourney.....All it takes is one a$$hole to stir the pot, and distract those of us that really like good basketball players, and good teams by pitting "us" against "them"....it's complete nonsense and it offers nothing....

I hate niang as much as the next person, but he is MUCH better than Tuttle. Not even debatable. For Tuttle to even be close to making that list should have much much better numbers. Those numbers in a real conference vs real teams is probably 10pts 5boards and a few assists; decent numbers but nowhere near deserving of this award.

I don't like Niang and I do like Tuttle. But you're right. I think it was Bilas that said Tuttle has a chance to be drafted in the 2nd round but he can definitely play in Europe.

He got 29 against the #8 team in the country.

You mean against a team that starts 4 guards and a 6'7" forward? Wichita State is good but they aren't top 10 worthy. They won't match up well against teams with a solid front line.

Look, nobody is really disagreeing with you that Tuttle is a good player but in all honesty he doesn't deserve to be on that list. He is playing against a lot of teams that can't match up with him and he is taking advantage of that. Kudos to him. Even with the advantage, he isn't posting eye popping numbers, he's about on par with other players on the list that are posting similar numbers but while playing against much tougher defenses.
 
What does that have to do with anything? You better hope UNI doesn't get put in the same region as Iowa. You wouldn't want to see them now.

I say 6 prayers a day that we get put in to the same bracket with iowa. We would consider that a bye to the next round. They aren't much different than when we played them. Thinks about it, you just finished up the weak part of your schedule and now they are WORLD beaters because they have won a couple in a row? I think not. I hope we get them at some point man, man if we could be so lucky. But you have to get out of the first round to begin with. It been a few years since that has happened hasn't it?

Tuttle will get 40 on Woodbury.

Lol I really hope you see the irony in this post.

Ummm, you just described the last 3 months for UNI.
 
RPI ranking of UNI's last 7 wins:
107, 289, 127, 228, 77, 249, 178

and that was the TOUGH part of their schedule....
