Crap! We need them to pull off enough wins to justify keeping Mad Fran. Not sure this team can do it. Last thing we want is for them to have a shot at a competent coach.
Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

Well ****, Hassel is going to spend another 30 minutes talking CC on TGNC to avoid this fiasco.
They need to just give away CC crap at the men’s games. Instead of a bobble head, some flopping thing or something
Having Sandfort anywhere near the person handling the ball in a late game situation is coaching malpractice of the highest order.
He would need probably 3 bad seasons to get canned. He's at least made NCAA tourneys.
Fran needed to sit Sandfort and put in Bowen - the Hoks needed a defensive stop, not an offensive hail mary.

Holy ****. I guess I didn't realize how bad this loss was for Iowa. Maryland is 99th in the NET so losing to them at home is REAL bad. Losing to Maryland and an even worse Michigan at home...they just suck.
How much will they drop with this loss in the NET and KenPom and BT?

I just realized that Dix was also out there for end-of-the-game "defense." Two awful defenders - in Dix & Sandfort - to try and defend a very quick & athletic guard with the game on the line?! Iowa would have been better to just have fouled him up top with 8-9 seconds left and let him shoot FTs. Then, Sandfort could have driven down the court pulled up from 5 feet beyond the arc - falling down without being touched - and either making the shot or coaxing a foul to be called for a chance to win the game at the FT line.Maryland's Jahmir Young kisses it off window to secure win at Iowa

Crazy that a guy can dribble from 25 feet out and not one defender was in position to make a play, heck they were so out of the way the couldn't even have fouled him.
Serious question. When Illinois visits Iowa this year, what happens if the Orange Krush invades Hawkeye-Carver Arena on an Orange Krush road trip like they had planned to do last year?
Because plenty of good seats are available, what does the AD do?
a) Not allowed like last year
b) Order more pizza
c) Give them coupons for next year
d) Convince the CR Boys and Girls Clubs it won't be as boring as last year
d) Other (please explain)
Just here to say the winningest coach in Iowa MBB history sucks.
I watched the highlights of the game tonight and saw that both Perkins and Bowen were actually on the floor at the end of the game. BUT neither of them had the on-ball assignment. Both are better defenders than Sandfort or Dix - not sure what Fran's defensive strategy was?
The glimmer of hope that Iowa had to make the tournament died tonight. **** the hawks.
