    Tinsley Reminisces About His Cyclone Career

    Very good read on talking about people learning to be ready for a pass and where and when to get them passes to be most effective. Tinsley was also great at taking over a game somewhere along the way. There was a flat out couple minute period where everything went through him on both ends of...

    ISU's only losses are against the NCAA tourney field (this includes Villanova & UNC)

    Re: ISU's only losses are against the NCAA tourney field (only Villanova and North UNI has the wins against 2 ranked teams. I think the graphic on the game yesterday indicated Evansville was 0-3 against top 80(?) in the RPI and had a SOS over 200. That will not help your RPI.

    Niang climbing the ISU all time scoring list

    Be careful when always comparing raw statistics among the different players and teams. Freshman ineligibility has come up already. On the team side George has had the great advantage of playing on deeper more talented overall teams than some other folks did. he mid-80s teams were good, but...

    Who is most likely to " Lafester" the Hawks Thursday night?

    Yes, much more balanced. Lafester had the 54. Grayer had well into the 20s. That leaves not many points among the rest of the team.

    Last years team vs this years

    And there were times last night where we needed a bucket where Monte knew he could get one and made it. Probably more than he has in previous years.
