****official ISU Iowa bball thread****

Pretty fortunate to play this poorly in the first 4-5 minutes of the half, yet have most of the half time lead and the ball.

That was a **** poor possession. Nobody seemed aware of the shot clock at all. If we just expect to pass it around the arc, don't initiate any cuts or screens, and don't attack the basket we might be in trouble. When a team doesn't appear very basketball savvvy, it's up to the coach to help control the game. You have timeouts for a reason Fred...use them judiciously.
 
This team seems to need an on-court leader to step up and take charge of the team
 
This is highly disturbing. Our players need to get their heads back into the game.

I think what this team should learn is that when we play hard with urgency we are pretty good. But the 1st part of the 2nd half looks like a lot of games this year. Lazy passes, standing around. Why do we have Royce bringing it up the floor now?
 
How ******* stupid are we? The only way to let Iowa back in the game was to get in foul trouble and we do exactly then. Then once we already GOT in foul trouble we continue to get right up in player's faces. I hope our players are majoring in basket weaving 101 as if you had to judge the intelligence of the team in general, we don't look to be a very bright bunch.

Our coach also has to do a better job at half time to get his players to make adjustments. Obviously that didn't happen.
 
2 things:

We are AWFUL at getting out of the trap and press

These refs suck. Hard.
