Seeing what Michigan did to them, and then what Georgia did to Michigan should be an indicator of how far behind they are from being a playoff team.
Down goes Iowa

Agreed. It is almost like they feel they have the right to dictate the terms and conditions they will only play in the NCAA, such as the day and time they want to play, want kind of floor to play on, what basketballs to use, the type of floor they will only play on and what part of the country they will only play in.
Oh, and they must have all yellow M&M's as well as Skittles -- no Cardinal and Gold colors -- in bowls placed at various places in the locker room for the players to munch on and only allow Nestle Pure Life Purified bottled water to be served chilled at exactly 50 degrees.
Deep throat chokers? Hot heads that rally around swearing at those Cheating Mother ******* Reffs? Low class crybabies? Dirty players and Old men Harassing Young Brides at college bars they should have grown out of?
Hawk fans only have themselves to blame. They should take the weekend run in the BTT and be proud of it. Did they really think their guard play was going to take them past the first weekend in the NCAA tournament? Their weekend run in the BTT was not exactly murderer’s row either.
I kept seeing on here how on fire Connor was in the last part of their schedule.
I guess his trajectory didn't carry him against...*checks notes*...Richmond.
This post kind of sums up my experiences with typical hokfan at my previous place of employment (28 years). It’s the air of superiority and condescension toward other fan bases that is insufferable. I can take good-natured ribbing very well. But most of their fans that I’ve encountered cannot realistically evaluate their team’s shortcomings or realize when they have just, straight-up, been out-played. No self-awareness at all, only self-absorption. Fry Nostalgia Syndrome.
Someone needs to tell Scotty that conference tournaments have never carried much weight.
Again, Mr. Murray, if you say something like "no excuses, setting the record straight" but then come back and write "(Keegan) rolled his ankle on what should have been at least a flagrant 1 foul." -- you are making excuses. (actual quote from a post on Hawkeye Report)
Yup. In spite of all this, we still got to hear from MadFran in the post game what high character Bozo and Jr. have. Lol.
That's exactly it. Yet, will sit there and say the Hawkeye fanbase is "classy". And when their team loses, they'll try to find some way to diminish the team they lost to. If nothing else, they'll play the "classless" card in regards to the opposing team (i.e. the Stanford band making fun of Iowa at the Rose Bowl).
And don't dare say there's a better tradition in college sports than "The Wave."
Here’s a stat you can all borrow:
Two more 3 pointers and Tyrese will have as many career 3s in the ncaas as Bohannon.

When other posters come on and say, "Okay guys. Enough is enough. Let's cool it on this Iowa stuff.", I think I can count on you to come back with, "It's NEVER f**king enough!"
If that does happen, I got your back.
It's because of the brain and ballwashing done by the local media. I follow Leistikow and Eickholt among others on Twitter just for an occasional laugh. According to them, Iowa teams never lose and never do anything wrong. If they end up on the wrong side of an outcome there is always an excuse, but it's never of their own volition.
National media has also been insufferable for them. Jon Rothstein immediately comes to mind, and the Athletic has an annoying female writer that has anti big 12 sentiment who also likes to slobber on Iowa's knob
A couple years ago didn’t Iowa blame the decals on the floor for being too slippery too?
I get making excuses, but at least find ones that wouldn’t impact the other team the same way.

I was coming home from work today and was listening to fox sports radio. They went to their update guy and the update guy spent his whole time crapping on Iowa.
He said watching iowa throw up all over themselves was beautiful and compared them losing to eating filet mignon. He was doing this because a producer there is a big Iowa fan.
One of the hosts said people across the country aren't interested or care about Iowa and I said out loud in my car that this guy in Iowa loves it, keep the trashing of Iowa coming.
