That's a classic. I would love to sit on that bench and listen in to some of the commentary. "Conversations with Hawley" would be a great sponsored piece for some organization.
Overlooked event 600th mbb victory in Hilton
Last year was a totally different game, not comparable at all. Iowa's entire roster was red-hot shooting and we couldn't throw a stone in the ocean. It happens, we were still a decent team.
We didn't shoot particularly well on Thursday. Missed a lot of good looks on threes and mid-range. Our posts bullied them inside and our guards were too fast and athletic for their guards. We exposed multiple major flaws in their roster.

I'm not sure why you're dying on this hill and then pushing so hard against something that quite easily shows a better ball handler.
Gilbert's really good but I don't see anything unique about his handles. When he slows things down he's very good in traffic.
I'd say Lipsey has better handles. Maybe Pav.
Horton, Niang, and Matt Thomas come to mind. I'd probably find more if I spent more than 1 minute on it.
ISU couldn't dribble down the court last year at Iowa City.
It happened in a few other games when things went badly. Hopefully this group can keep from flinching if things aren't going well.
Oh Conner better eat more chicken wings
Here is a dose of piss in your Cheerios after everyone got to enjoy the win
Iowa sucks. Compared to the 3 teams we played in Orlando Iowa would have been the worse team. And I'm not saying those teams were good.
This was our best game performance but if we are all slapping our backs over it then we'll be very disappointed in conference. Jump in metrics reflects only that we like to beat up on the weak. Throw in a real team and we wilt.

'Why isn't Omaha out there because recruiting rating!?' and 'but the ESPN tourney!!' are so far leading the charge in CF meltdown season.
Did you see joy and need to kill it?
Interesting take. I'll counter you with the bold prediction we end up .500 or better in conference. My opinion is worth every bit as much as yours.
I don't think anyone is convinced ISU will win the national championship, or even the Big12, based on the beatdown of Iowa. But your reaction to that game is this?
Take it easy. Enjoy the moment. There will be plenty of opportunities for your gloom & doom.
