Seemingly never ending Iowa MBB thread (still going.....)

Well I mean they were a top 4 team most of last year so maybe that is "really down" according to our resident "stats" man.

Considering right now they are in 9th place in the ACC when they are usually contending for championships, I would say they are having a down season.
 
I just told you dude, I dont care about that crap, there is a reason the selection committee uses RPI and seeds accordingly. I want to know who youve played and who youve beaten, I honestly dont care how fast you score or some other dumb metric like that.

USC sucks and they're ranked ahead of us in RPI. I can't believe Jeremy said we suck, that honestly pisses me off

You said USC sucks but they are ranked ahead of us in RPI and you use RPI to determine who is better. That's what you said, I'm not putting words in your mouth

I never said that dude, quit putting words into my mouth or Ill have you banned. Earlier when you asked if Minnesotta was better because they had a higher RPI I said they werent "better" but in the same range as those teams. Now you are changing your narrative again to try to fit your own agenda.

I already told you a long time ago I watch alot of games and use the eye test also, Ive seen USC play and they arent good, we are much better than them. Youve told me numerous times my eye test doesnt mean squat so Ill just leave it at that.

You go off RPI, you said USC sucks but they have a better RPI than us. You think Iowa is average and Texas is pathetic because of where they rank on RPI. I honestly think it's insulting you are calling this ISU team in the same range as a team that sucks
 
I am just curious... USC has 1 loss to a team outside the RPI top 45... how does that make them bad?

Look at their schedule, they have 2 wins the entire season over NCAA tourney teams(both in LA), they are 8-6 in an extremely bottom weak conference, yeah theyve beaten the cream puffs they should have beat but they arent that good.
 
Things Ive learned from the other Cyclone fans today on this thread..

-SEC is "far better" than the Big 10 even though all numbers prove otherwise
Idc about how much eithr conf sucks, they both suck.
-Only reason Iowa got Jok is because we didnt want him anymore
No, we wanted him but couldn't recruit him because of violations. Big difference.
-Jok wasnt being recruited by blue bloods when he was 14 even though it was talked about on local media all the time back then
14 is a long way from college. Yes he was highly touted...in 8th grade.
-Gessell is an amazing player and so much better than Bohannon already
Gessel and JorBo are basically a wash, neither should start on a good P5 team. PG has and will continue to hold Iowa back with either of them as your PG.
Keep the comedy coming guys! I can only imagine if a random Xavier fan or something dropped by here to see some of the asinine comments. Some of you guys are embarrassing.
See bolded.

Oh please man, we are seriously arguing over USC, Im out. Their RPI is up there because of more total wins, not because they are better than us, we both know that.

I didn't say they were good... I am also not the "stats" man who is saying Iowa is "average" and then turns around and calls a USC team who doesn't lose to trash "bad."

If Iowa is average than USC is ******* elite.

You go off RPI, you said Iowa is average and Texas is pathetic because of where they are on RPI even though other metrics and Vegas has Texas ahead of Iowa
