Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

[GoHawks]

Is that even legal?

I would call the NCAA and check. Do you have their number? I don't

 

[CyHawk1605]

Is that even legal?

Uh, yes.

 

[TheJackWePack5]

@TheJackWePack5 explain yourself here. What makes the Big 12 better than the B1G?

5 teams ranked inside the top 14. Find me another conference that would have to play those 5 teams twice.

Best of luck to you in trying to spin your response.

 

[CyTwins]

Uh, yes.

Interesting. I'm surprised Fran wants a convicted felon working with his players

The top of the conference is really good which I said earlier in this thread.

You also have (KenPom) #62, #88, #146. ISU wouldnt have to play the top 5 teams twice if they were one of the top 5 teams.

The B1G has 8 teams in the top 21 of KenPom and more teams (11) in the top 50 than the Big 12 even has in their conference. The B1G has 13 teams ranked ahead of ISU and KSU and the lowest B1G team (117 Nebraska) is almost 30 spots better than the lowest Big 12 team (146 KSU).

Its like the argument of the ISU football program under Rhoads that they always had one of the two toughest conference schedules. Yeah, because you miss playing one of the 2 worst teams in the conference.

You clearly are more invested in this debate than I am.

Still grasping I see. Keep spinning it and working whatever angle you can.

The Big 12 is just better. Sorry buddy.

Thats one way to wave the white flag.

 

[atlantacyclone]

Well, the title of this thread didn’t age well. On a positive note it can only get better from here... right?

 

[TheJackWePack5]

Thats one way to wave the white flag.

Five top 14 teams in a conference that plays a double round robin. No need to say any more or “wave the white flag”.

Please keep working angles. Your obsessive desperation is hilarious.

Thanks Baylor!

Thanks Tech!

Thanks Kansas!

Etc.

Those upper level teams get to play 6 games each against teams rated #62 or lower.

 

[Gitwitit]

Bolton is good so no

Good at turnovers

 

[CyTwins]

Good at turnovers

He has twice as many assists as turnovers

 

[Cyinthenorth]

It really is a shame he went to ISU I feel. I think him banging against Garza all year and learning post moves from Luka and his father is exactly what he needed. He has a really nice outside shot and is a great athlete. Just needs to refine his inside game and get some post moves. He could have done that at Iowa.

You don't know what kind of player he is if you think he would have benefited from "banging around" against Garza...he is not your standard 7'0'' back to the basket goon.

Dumb

And when did Prohm turn into David Wallace from The Office after he was canned when Dunder Mifflin was sold?

 

[inCyteful]

Maybe he gets a trophy after this year for most racist coaching staff in the conference.

No its Iowa and the B1G. They will parade him around sportsworld next year as a shining example of wokeness and building bridges.

Then they'll probably come up with some halftime ceremony named after him that cause Herbstreit to spew his pants.

Maybe Herbie just crying. That was an interesting thing right there.

 

[TRYHARDER]

Even with bad ISU/KSU teams, the Big 12 is still the best conference.

The poster above was right, you’re trying too hard.

Top half of the BIG 12 is really good but the bottom is dreadful. I mean ass kicked by Drake and Division II schools dreadful. Nobody in the BIG 10 is that bad or even close.

The 10 or so minutes of the KState Vs ISU game last night was some of the worst BB I’ve seen in awhile. That is a really bad league at the bottom.

Ehh, I’d argue that TCU, OSU & Oklahoma are all solid teams.

Wont hear me argue about ISU/KSU.
