    After re-watching some of the games

    I agree with the original post 5,000%. You need your 2 guard to score, including getting to the free throw line, getting fouled. Here is another stat that is incredible. You know how many FT attempts BP has taken in conference games? 4!!!!!! 4 FT attempts in 11 conference games!!! He...

    ISU tonight and Lost

    Do you know if they will pull that crap again and not broadcast the new Lost in HD? I DVR the show, and when they did not air it in HD, it absolutely drove me mad.

    Buckley

    I am so curious as to why Haluska gets ripped on, but BP gets the "he really hustles though!" Does anyone think that BP plays even average defense? The bigger athletic guards, (Eaton, Collins, etc.) blow past him like he is a statue. Haluska plays 10x better defense than BP. I know SH can't...

    Not good news with CB

    This new development has us all on pins and needles. This breaking story will definitely hurt our NCAA Tournament bid chances this year come Selection Sunday. :jimlad:

    Boozer

    I think Boozer should be taking some of Peterson's minutes. Have Boozer play 20, Peterson 8 mpg. Why? Boozer's defense has improved, it is at least on par with Peterson's. Also, we are playing for next year, not this year. Thanks BP for your effort, but I have seen all that you can do...

    Are we close?

    Cydkar, you got it. I don't care who the coach is. Whether it's Orr, Morgan, Eustachy, McDermott, or Brittany Spears, I just want to win. All I can tell you is that so far, in 3 years, McD has not done that. In 3 years, we have beat 1 ranked team, Purdue. We have a conference record of...

    Are we close?

    The mentality of a basketball player is not like a NFL QB. You have talent, or you don't. The last 2 Big 12 Players of the Years were both freshman. It had nothing to do with their mental capacity, they had talent. KU basically lost its entire team from last year. No matter, they bring in...

    Are we close?

    I agree completely. He is not recruiting well. DB was supposed to be a great get. Is he? Who knows? He messes up once, and does not come in the game again. BP has 2 turnovers in 10 seconds, both of which lead to Mizzou layups, and he does not even sit down. I would love to see BP and DB...

    Some of You Need to Chill Out

    Re: Some of You Need to Chill the Out If this was not a blowout loss, I would hate to see a what you consider a blowout. We got out rebounded by almost 20. We were outscored by 15. If they make even 5 of the 10 free throws they missed, they win by 20. Hardly a nail biter.

    McDermott's Coaching Strategy

    It's maddening really. It is like watching the same train wreck over and over again. Twice in a row, I saw KSU miss a free throw, then score 2 baskets after getting the rebound, one of which was a 3. If you can't block out on a free throw, you should not be in the game. You know where the...

    The end of Greg's contract will speak volumes about Pollard...

    Some great posts on this thread. I will say that I am extremely disappointed. Like Bryce C. said, I love to watch ISU hoops. I get excited about watching the games. These past 2 years have made my stomach hurt. It is SO painful to watch this team. I will support the team no matter what...

    Post game thoughts

    College BB is about talent and guard play. We really don't heave either yet. I love the hustle of BP and SH, but the bottom line is they would not start for most Valley teams, if any. Collins could have dropped 50 on Peterson if he needed to. At least Haluska can play some D. It simply...

    DC currently on the steelers staff?

    Defensive Coordinator? We don't need no stinking Defensive Coordinator.......

    Official ISU vs SDSU Thread

    I have said it before, Eikemeir is not ready to play in the Big 12. Some idiot poster said he is a "heady" player. I think he is simply MVC talent at best, and should not be in when the game is on the line.

    Stoops Not a candidate per the mouth

    First off, the hiring of Stoops would not thrill me. Patterson, yes, that would be exciting. But why all the hatred for Stoops? ISU is not some dream job for D1 coaches. Much as I would like it, we are not going to get Urban Meyer, count out Pete Carroll too. I see Stoops record, and it...

    Marty still claims new coach locked up

    I can also, with some certainty, rule that the new coach does not currently reside in the Aleutian Islands. Please be aware that this does not, in any way shape or form, imply that the new coach, at one time or another, did not used to live in the Aleutian Islands.

    List of people who won't coach here

    I just received from a reliable source that Tommy from Des Moines is out of the running as well. His official quote was, "I ain't no nuttin bout eeing a ootball oach."

    ISU vs. Iowa Post Game Thread

    One of the guys who should not see the court is Eikmeier. His defense is laughable, he shoots a 3 about every time he touches it, he turns it over consistently, and his ball handling is easily the worst of all the guards that we have. Instead, he plays about 25 minutes a game. He will not...

    ISU vs UNI postgame thread

    I think we won because of 2 things..... 1. We got smart. The 3's were not falling, and we wised up and made it a 2 player game. If we would have kept jacking up 3's from SH and BP, we lose easy. 2.UNI didn't get their 3's to fall. The zone we played actually looked decent. Normally those...

    ISU needs to recruit Cody Paul

    Can he play defense too? He would start at Safety for us right now.
