The Official Boiler up beutch and play some defense Iowa... it is the Chris Street Day Game Thread

[HawkGold]

Is little Lick in the game for Purdue?

 

[HaydenHawk56]

Fran looks defeated.

 

[CP87]

I really can't wait for Iowa journalists to write about how we pulled close during the last 5 minutes.

We get it, you don't agree with Jon's latest article. But give the Iowa media some credit, no one will react to this effort with anything but disgust (or possibly bewilderment).

Wagner kids scholly was a complete waste. Kid is a good kid great attitude but he's not a basketball player at all.

 

[Robowe]

Looks like Iowa had another player (Charlie Rose) waiting to check in and no one wanted to stop play to get him in. Oh, he gets in with 11 seconds to go and gets a bucket.

 

[DDThompson]

Jon may have used the wrong vowel in “lost” in “a lost season.”

 

[1hawkeye1]

In support?

Prolly

 

[hawkdrummer1]

Will there be an "Instant Reaction" podcast today?

Here's your instant reaction...

Hey, Purdue still has the worst mascot in the B1G

 

[seepig]

They hit 20 3's....count 'em.

 

[echo44]

Rose scored more than Moss?

 

[Stanzi]

I never expected that Fran would increase my appreciation for Kirk. It's always been the other way around until now.

 

[HawkGold]

Seriously, is this the lowest point in Iowa basketball for any of us?

At least with Kirk players get better not worse

Apparently, you haven't been paying attention.

 

[mopkins]

Yes, because he's had waaay more success than Fran. His teams make the tournament every season and they've made multiple sweet 16's.

Ok. Then compare Matt painter to Kirk ferentz. Matt painter has never finished in the top 10. Matt painter makes a bowl game (ncaa tournament appearance) about 80% of seasons at Purdue.

You want Matt painter but want to fire Kirk ferentz?

Just trying to understand where the bar is at

 

[seepig]

Genie....can I wish for a competitive basketball team?

No but boy was Barbara Eden hot in that Genie costume.

Oh no. We were specifically told that to expect any better than this was lazy. That was the exact word. "Lazy".

 

[ShockHawk22]

Is this much better than the Lick Years?

You used to be a good forum member.

I don't want to fire Ferentz. I thought we were talking about Fran. Now I'm just confused.

Also, it's easier to make a bowl game than the NCAA tournament. Around 2/3 of teams make a bowl game. Only about 1/5 of teams make the NCAA tournament. In football you win 6 games and you're guaranteed a bowl game. In basketball there is no magic number like that.
