The Fran fade

[CyTwins]

Your math is bad. How did we go 5-1 when we played 2 conference games plus 3 other P5 programs?

I counted Cincinnati as a P5 game. My bad

 

[HawkJRP]

Average NET rank of the four P6 teams we played in December and went 3-1 against: 54

Average NET rank of the teams we play in February and March: 43

And that includes a terrible Nebraska team that is 171 in NET. This is as bad of a troll as saying Garza isnt clutch.

What a weird basketball life for Cincy. One day in the Big East, the next day your aren't but the other school in town now is.

It wasnt just that. You said we played 2 conference games plus 3 other P5 games and ended up going 5-1 against them. 2+3 is 5 and you listed a 5-1 record.

Yes I said you went 5-1 in the month of December. One of those wasn't vs a P5 team or Cincinnati

Home game against the Generals was just what the doctor ordered.

Can isu get that too or did the Rattlers just not play along?

 

[SouthernCy]

I don't understand why you are targeting me and my childhood hair cut like this...

 

[SouthernCy]

I will say Iowa is trending in a better direction than ISU. Iowa knows what they have coming back next year and ISU is hoping to grab transfers

What LOL? ISU just signed a top 20 class. 4 players averaging a ranking of 91.64.
The hawks just signed the 56TH ranked class HAHAHAHA!!!! 5 players with an average ranking of 80.94

At first look at the title I was hoping this was about Fran getting a hipster haircut

Easy non Big10 schedule in December

ISU net 75 on the road
Cinci net 47 on neutral court
Cuse net 65 on the road

Then against good Big10 competition we went 1-1

Michigan Net 34 on the road
Minnesota Net 45 at home

Trying to compare our non conference schedule to our tough Big10 schedule is a joke.

That is almost impossible.

 

[iahawks]

That is almost impossible.

Not impossible when you lose by 36.

I get it. Just mind boggling.

It was crazy watching it happen, believe me.

I can't believe he took 4 threes

 

[TRYHARDER]

It was crazy watching it happen, believe me.

Pretty much turned into an AAU game.

The one thing I was afraid of at Purdue was getting off to a bad start. Seems like this happens to Iowa all the time there. We get the first 2 pts and then they go on a 17-0 run before the under 16 TO, and it was all over but the crying at that point.

Your last sentence surprises me a bit. In the few times I have watched your crew they played mentally tough and demonstrated "grit". Do you think the spread was to much for them to overcome mentally? Is it that while there defense has improved this year still not enough to overcome that kind of deficit? *****this is not a pre-troll I am genuinely asking******
