Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

Purdy got hurt during the WVU game.. He played his best game 3 weeks later against OU where he threw 5 TD's and ran for 55 yards and a TD.
I was there. He was incredible that game. Totally outdueled Hurts in his own stadium
Yes.
Judging by the nicknames you have made up and your inability to engage in any type of meaningful conversation about the topic that is being discussed, I didn't think you could have been older than 15 or 16 years old.
Well buddy boy, good thing this is around
Hhhhmmmmm........looking at the players there......hhhmmmmmm......
This is the truth. All you have to do is look back to last year any time they played an up tempo, athletic team. DePaul and Purdue exhibits A and B. Boatraced.
Which makes the 104-68 final score even worse- nobody had double figures besides LG. And, in a rebuilding/down year for Purdue, they won by 9 at Carver also. Painter could coach circles around Fran with one hand tied to his b...s.
Here's another cool story- that defensive-minded coach out in Lincoln held IA to 70- LG had 16 (quiet night for him), JW had 21...on 23 shots- wow! and JT has 14...on 18 shots. Maybe Fran should do a coaching video on efficient offense.
Using Nebraska basketball for ammo? I knew Prohm wrecked the ISU program but I didn't know it was this bad.
As long as you keep coming on a rivals site trying to tell us how great a season it was, I’ll use Nebraska or whatever other facts I need to remind you that your Hawks weren’t as great as you thought.
I’ll go through this one more time- please pay attention Charlie. Yes- IA beat ISU in Hilton and, for like the 2nd time in the last 21 years, were clearly better than ISU. There- we cleared that up. After that, your best wins were over Maryland (there is no more Jekyll and Hyde team in CBB) and Penn State, both in Carver. IA beat several other average to good teams- Ohio State, Michigan, Wisconsin, and TT. All but Tech were also in Carver. There was not one great true road win. AND, the Hawks lost to 7-25 Nebraska; .500 DePaul shellacked them in the house of horrors, CHA; and lost 2x to 10th place Purdue. GREAT teams don’t do that- Michigan State doesn’t do that. I know- it is so exciting to think the Hawks were almost there- but they really weren’t.
Hawk trolls. Iowa gave up what to Michigan? 100? What would they have scored if bobo was still playing? 130?
And Iowa still ended up 50 spots better in KenPom’s defensive efficiency metric. Crazy how awful Iowa State was last year.
Yeah, we were bad. We admit that. You guys think you were final four material for some strange reason. You guys really focus on us. Glad you have a game that means a lot when you can win. We have Kansas and you have us.
