This might be my favorite!
"Yeah, I'd been losing sleep worried that Louisville, UNC, Syracuse or other regular national championship contender would swoop in and take our underachieving, unbalanced, psycho coach away."
B1G announcers have been atrocious this year. Nebraska plays Penn State this weekend so expect both teams to receive auto bids to the tourney during the broadcast. I do thoroughly enjoy when the "TOE is gonna be better next year, they return everyone" portion of the game hits though.
My favorite poster on there is Milehighhawkeye24...absolutely fires out some memorable gems like this...
"I agree with this (although Joe W is as legit of scorer as I have seen in 20+ years following Iowa HS Hoops), I mean its not like I am giving out final four predictions here. Top 5 in Big Ten and round of 32 is completely reasonable for next year and then the following year is when expectations could get crazy- assuming everybody stays and no injuries
Garza, Nunge, Jo Bo, Pemsl, Kriener, Cook, Connor, Patrick, Joe W, Frederick (and hopefully Patrick can get Carton or some other top guy to join that year)."
Kool-Aid is flowing fast at the TOE. Their depth is going to be legendary...

That's bad, but the Big 10 is the worst Power 5 conference by a long ways, and Fran is clearly the worst coach in that league.
I think Milehighhawk24 is the same poster as DanL53. His preseason predictions were so embarrassing that he stopped posting after Iowa lost 2 games in Cayman Islands.
You have your moments but you still aren't as severe as 1976....
DanL53 has shifted his efforts over to this site....
If you go by RPI, the big 10 is the worst P5 conference but the gap between the pac 12 and the big 10 is fairly narrow.
Those 3 letters are censored on Hawkeye websites so he's probably not used to seeing it
Why because I've been EXACTLY RIGHT about how bad Iowa and Mad Franny would be??? Seriously, I don't know how you can argue this.
You lost all credibility with your 38-17 prediction. That was awful and something you can't come back from.
So I got one football score wrong and all credibility is lost. I'll have to be sure to keep track of other poster's predictions. By the end of the season we were 2+ touchdowns better.
It wasn't just that you were wrong, but it was a very outlandish prediction and one that nobody including your fellow Cyclone fans would ever take seriously.
The same end of the year that saw ISU lose three games in November?
