I guess Iowa's collapse will start in March this year...

[Tornado man]

The question will be will it last. Guys like Bobo et al. are more experienced but they didn't turn into better athletes in a year. Watched a snippet and Illinois is bad but also seemed to think quick 3s were better than getting to the hoop.

There's some good teams in the B1G but there are some very bad teams too.

Regarding Illinois - how much of Underwood's success at SFA and his one year at OSU has been because of having Boynton on his staff? He doesn't have him now...
It might be the same as Shaka Smart not having Will Wade (now HC at LSU) with him?

So they've beat the 8th, 10th, 11th, 13th, and 14th place teams in the Big 10? Pretty solid.

That’s what the 8th best offense in the nation gets you in the big ten. You can just steamroll the logjam of mediocre teams in that league.

They are 95th in D (these are KP #s) which is why they can’t beat even the slightly better than mediocre teams like Purdue and Wisky.

Also that amazing non con for Iowa ended up being the 331st toughest.

Was Underwood that good at OSU, and has Shaka Smart really been that good at Texas no matter the coaches available?

 

[Cat Stevens]

This makes Fran safe for at least through pat. This isn’t a bad thing. They will play someone that is decent and athletic and at full strength, and then your answers as to how good they are will be answered.

Underwood had great years at SFA, which got him the job at OSU. His one year at Stillwater was pretty good.
Now then: if I was a Longhorn fan, and was looking at my team, and then I watch LSU play, I would say: "we got ourselves the wrong coach from VCU."

Danny Kaspar set him up for success at SFA. They were 26-3 the year before he arrived.

Any fan anywhere would likely be pretty pissed if those types of recruits were coming to the school and they don't even win an NCAA game.

That Underwood style works for like two years but in the end it gets found out as junk basketball.

Yeah they are solid, unfortunately. They shot 15-21 from 3 today. Pretty good regardless of opponent. Weiskamp from Muscatine is a stud. At 16-3 it would be pretty hard for them to miss the tourney at this point.

Sounds like it’s time for another banner in CHA!

Bookmarked.

 

[Mick Mars]

Iowa’s Big 10 wins are combined 8-27 in the league. Their losses are to teams that are 16-5.

 

[CyDude16]

Yes they are. Much better defensively than last year, and aggressive on offense. I'm impressed.

Much better? That’s a push.

This collapse is AWESOME

Oh how soon you guys forget.

1-3 is probably best case scenario there honestly

Minn and Ind are not very good. Typically overrated big 10 teams.
