Stepping out on Limb

[HawkPhreek]

Tonight is the night it all comes together Hawks win by double digits.

 

[BasketballMan]

Agree. I think a light bulb or two is gonna go off in a few kids heads and we will see progress like alot of us originally anticipated.

 

[TwinCitiesHawkI]

I sure hope so!!!

 

[LoewDog]

Hawks are 5-2...at best I would think people would have projected us at 6-1 at this point.

Creighton is good and we knew that.

The next stretch is tough and I hope people stick with this squad.

We should beat Brown, Central Arkansas and Boise St.

If we can split with Clemson, UNI, ISU and Drake...

10-4 pre-conference record would be pretty good.

 

[Cover3]

I hope it happens against ISU...

Seriously, though, I agree that something will click, but I think tonight is a little soon after the Campell and Creighton whoopings. They'll have some good fight tonight and will keep it close, I think, but we're a couple of weeks away from the real jelling.

I have absolutely no facts or stats to support that prediction.

Don't worry about it Cover3... it hasn't stopped anybody on here before.

I wish I shared your optimism.

Iowa is 4-2 right now.

Light bulbs don't win games. Tall guys that can jump and shoot and run do.

Defense and passing helps too.

 

[OUTofTOWNHAWK]

The game is on tv tonight so I am pumped. Hoping for a good showing by the Hawks.

 

[clicheusername3]

Defense and passing helps too.

We're not in conference yet

 

[cockyhawkfan]

I haven't been able to watch the last two games, but from what I've read, that limb is going to break fella.

 

[herbyhawk]

this is a test Clemson is picked to be amiddle of the pack in the ACC
Iowa is predicted to be at or near the bottum of the BT
win or close loss of 1-5 pts will be a sign of improvement
dbl digit loss of 10-15 pts means the team is still learning
myself i expect a close game and no feeling of who will win

may as well go with Iowa 65-63 FT's make the difference

 

[Biggusblockus]

Iowa can't hit water if they fell out of a boat. Clemson by 25. This Iowa team is the worst shooting team I have ever seen.

 

[CAARHawk]

Um, how hard did you hit the ground?

Seriously, this team is horrible. Nothing new. Last year was as bad as the Lick years and this year will be as well.

At least a big chunk of this team will be gone this year and Fran should do all he can to move some more players as well.

Freaking hysterical the way people were drinking the punch. Seriously, people were actually saying Brommer and Archie could replace Cole.

People were also begging people to go watch this team.

Way better use of your time staying home and watching the Buckeyes trounce Duke.

Remember when Miller was talking about 20 wins!!!

LMFAO!
