Seemingly never ending Iowa MBB thread (still going.....)

Encapsulation of Iowa's recruits (all future) in recent SB Nation piece:

My Brother-in-laws are lifelong Pyrite and Coal Dust bleeders and have been doing a lot of behind my back (rather than the usual to my face) dissing of Iowa State. My wife, their big Sis, told me they are starting to talk of next year being Fran's last if things don't go big.

Having fans that didn't go to school is good for said school's athletic department. The "they didn't go to school there!" complaint is so tired and overplayed. As a graduate of the University of Iowa I've met ******** who were graduates and I've met ******** who were non graduates and that goes for both schools.

Yeah, but Iowa's extreme fans are worse than ISU by far. I see it all the time in this part of the state.

I worked with a guy once, became friends, talked Iowa sports alot, then one day during the the Iowa-Isu football week I wore an ISU shirt on that Friday. The dude was in shock that I was an ISU fan. He treated me completely different after that.

As a graduate I think you have earned the respect to talk smack, a majority of people havent.

I couldn't care less what you think about me, you're the one who has said the dumbest stuff in this thread anyways

We were doing so well without you, go outside and play for awhile again so we can have a civil discussion.

Chicagoland area, whatever. Most people who are from that area, who go to Iowa, say they are from Chicago, even though most of the time they're not from the actual city proper of Chicago.

Hate this, but everyone everywhere does that to people of Chicago. I bet if the first week I went to Iowa State I said I was from my town, a greater portion than not would have no Idea what/where that is. Then I say Chicago, and they all go "Ahhh, got it." But if I were to say "I'm from Chicago" they all blast me for saying that I'm from Chicago even though I'm not from the actually city. So I just decided to give up trying and started saying "Chicago-land"

Bwaahahahaa! Thats just like your opinion and stuff.

What's sad is you living your life on a message board.

What might be more sad is spending time an opposing team's message board.

I'm 97% certain that jereseib is wearing a Hok shirt while sitting in front of his computer.
1% chance it is a UNI shirt
1% chance it is a Kirkwood shirt
1% chance it is a Cedar Rapids/Iowa City High School shirt.

I graduated from the University of Iowa. I know Chicago has a ton of people who go there. I was more asking why so many from his school in particular were so pro Iowa, but he answered my question.

You meant to say "Chicago".

You said on Feb 9th that Iowa's basketball team was average

Well you said Texas was pathetic and Iowa was average even though Texas would be a favorite on a neutral court. Dumbest thing I've heard so far in 2017

Iowa is the epitome of an average basketball team under Fran.

-If you take out his first year they are 57-48(54%) in Big Ten

-They are 8th, and 1 game behind Purdue for 7th out of 14 teams during that time period

-This year they are 15-13(7-8), assuming a zero sum game for all division 1 teams, thats 2 games above average

-They are currently 8th in Big Ten out of 14

-They have been to 2 NIT's, 2 NCAA's, and 1 Play in Game, thats 5 post-seasons in 7 years

-Their RPI is around 110 out of how many teams 360?

I dont know how you can get any more average than that when describing a basketball program.

Yeah, alot dumber than Wadley sucks, the Big 10 sucks at defense, the SEC is alot better than the Big 10 in basketball, if only I hadnt said such ridiculous things like that.
