***Official Seniors Appreciation Thread***

[cyfamily]

Thank you to all our seniors! Thank you for being Cyclones and giving us so many thrilling moments. More than anything, thank you for being great representatives of ISU. You are all class acts. Best wishes to all in the future! Loyal. Forever. True.

Monte Morris currently leads the nation with an insane 6.04 assist-to-turnover ratio.

Never. Although I've always wondered if that was a real quote...

It was in an article shortly after the game. I can't recall the publisher, but I'm certain it was a real quote. Naz missed a three shortly before that, and as we all know he has a "swag" about his mouth.

Morris is one of my all time favorite players. I'll definitely miss him. He's probably the best PG in isu history

I've had tickets for a long time and seen a lot of bad basketball. I've seen a lot of dudes come through the program. The amount of winning and the way these guys did it has been incredibly fun. As many people have said, ISU basketball will go on and I'll be a season ticket holder until I die. However, it's hard to imagine me being as impressed with and thankful for anybody as I am this group of guys.

As most people on this board know I've done my share of complaining this season. Let's soak it up for the rest of this and the two tournaments and just reflect on how grateful we can be that we have had the opportunity to watch these guys and see some of the best players to ever come through the program at the same time.

Great stuff. Naz never shrinks from the big moment. That 2nd video also reminds me how much I wish Fran and Brent were doing the game tonight...especially Fran. He should be there for this senior night.

I've shed tears for senior nights before and tonight will be no different. Every time I swear there will never be a class like "this one" and then another group comes along and becomes a part of your life all over again. I'm too invested in Cyclone sports, especially basketball. I spend 2 nights a week for 4 months wrapping myself up in what these guys do and when it's over it seems like there's something missing. I'm never happy to see it end but I'm damn sure glad it happened.

Thanks to this great group of young men. They've never been perfect, but they've been Cyclones that I could I could be proud of from day one. There is also no doubt that this group has enjoyed playing in front of this fan base as much as we've enjoyed watching. That just adds to the emotion. I hope they have one helluva run left in them; not for my sake, but for theirs.

Loyal sons forever true.

Tonight is going to be very very tough for not only those seniors, but us fans when that clock hits 0.0.

Seems just like yesterday that we were watching Harrison Barnes skype ol' Roy and dash my hopes. I couldn't be happier with the path we have witnessed. (Save for a broken foot here and a hip surgery there)
