I think this is the correct analysis.
But it won't be the hok analysis. They beat one of the hottest teams in CBB.
All I have to know about how good a team is - if they can't contain Dix, they have zero defense.
Don't doubt that the narrative coming out of this game will be along the lines of 'Young hok team starting to gel. Looking to get off the bubble and improve their seeding in the tourney.'
Perpetual Negative Nancy's are struggling. They can't get in their rhythm. They can't single out one person (well they try to). They miss their glory days of CSP.
It's not good enough to be the #24 team by 10. You can't ever be behind in the score.
Let me play the next card for you. A well coached team wouldn't have 20 turnovers ( never mind that WVU has been turning over opponents 25 times on average).
Please, tell us more.
Couldn't agree more. Got to work with BF on some community service stuff in my days in Ames. Couldn't think more highly of him and so happy for him and this validation tour he seems to be taking us on. Long grind ahead but I don't know if I have been more confident of any ISU team ever being...
