    Calling Iona fans...

    One of the biggest trick bags in the sports world. How many times have players been on their death bed only to go off for ungodly numbers. I want him healthy and ready to get his butt kicked.

    Iona is the trendy upset pick

    That would be SWEET.

    Iona is the trendy upset pick

    Just to take a shot but you spend the first four sentences about posting all this stuff about AUB and the your last line is Put UAB in the past. I found it kind of funny.

    updated jerry bracketology

    Maybe they should have waited and watched the UNI game. Their win makes the brackets a little different unless they are swapping them with Evansville and Evansville is out.

    Spokane?

    With the rarified air being a concern I guess maybe Spokane wont be a bad deal. I think we need to stay out of Denver and Spokane is a Friday game which gives us more rest. I still think it's BS with OU and UNC but given my druthers I would rather go to Spokane.

    Spokane?

    Why would we agree to host? Money? The rule needs to be changed if teams can still benefit with homecourt advantage by technicality.

    Spokane?

    And why do we keep getting matched up with the Spartans?

    Spokane?

    I understand we are not peaking in the eyes of many, but, why is it that all the brackets have us going to Spokane regardless of what bracket we are in. Say we catch fire and win the BXII. We get bumped to a 4 seed with some mojo going. OU gets to play in Oklahoma City, UNC gets Raleigh...

    Didn't know Fred was still the coach

    Quality OFF and on the court? Have you not watched the McKay saga this year? Not to bag on McKay but I would not put that in the quality ledger.

    RECRUITING: Jakolby Long update

    What you are missing is trying to cut minutes to improve productivity. Just because these guys are all playing 35 minutes plus this year doesn't mean they will need to next year. If we can get guys to spell them without much drop off they are fresher in the last five minutes and we don't drop...

    Georges Defense

    Last night might have been the most intensity I have seen from Georges on defense. He was super aggressive and didn't get the ticky tack calls that have plagued him this season. Of course, late in the game the zebras must have decided they forgot to call it tight and he picked up a couple then...

    No Goaltending Call - McKay Dunk

    Watch the replay. The ref on the left side of the basket was watching the whole time. How he missed it baffles me and he should be embarrassed and harassed for missing the play.

    ***Official Thon Maker Recruitment Thread***

    This would be an unofficial official visit. Would love for Prohm or TJ to go find and chat him up. Of course it would probably violate about a thousand NCAA rules. Maybe they could talk to him before the game and get Self riled up right out of the gate. He could get his normal T about 3...

    Tell em "I'm The Man"

    And then faces east so he can blow one more to EIU before he goes.

    Poll-Definition of success in 2016

    Its hard to believe we are still undefeated. I just hope the fans don't go all Prohm on Campbell after 4 games.

    Georges last home game

    It's been four years since the guy that, "played with Nerlens Noel" has been on site. Great to have him.

    Is it Realistic Our Defense Can Improve?

    Boxing out is our biggest problem. If we quit giving up second chances, and third and fourth, we will be fine. Easier said than done but our perimeter defense is about average it is just too many second chances and we get burned by a put back or an open three.

    Eisenberg: Why blaming Steve Prohm for Iowa State's shortcomings is unfair

    What makes Fred an elite coach over Prohm? Prohm is working with 5-6 players. Did Fred ever have to do that after his first year? The cupboard wasn't bare but it wasn't fully stocked either. If Prohm would have had more time and was able to pick up one more quality player where would we be...

    Eisenberg: Why blaming Steve Prohm for Iowa State's shortcomings is unfair

    I don't think it is the effort that is lacking. It is the technique. Prohm will get this fixed but you are dealing with seniors who have done the same thing for 3-4 years. Old dogs and bad habits.
