    Keegan Murray Raising NBA Stock

    Everyone assumes it is a foregone conclusion that he is NBA bound after this season because of what seems assured to be a high first round pick. Instant millionaire after all, you'd have to be an idiot to pass that up, right? Just maybe he takes the Linderbaum road and enjoys this stage of his...

    Bohnenkamp: 5 Observations from Iowa's Loss at Wisconsin

    Hmm, have to watch for that a bit. It is like he has become option 5, but only if there is no one else to get the ball to. He doesn't appear to be working as hard to get open, maybe that is why? Hope there is nothing to it. He has an important role to play and we need him. PM or someone did...

    Can Coach Bluder Please Teach Coach Fran How To Coach Rebounding?

    When it gets right down to it rebounding is nothing more than EFFORT(!) It may take the least amount of skill than any other phase of the game and shouldn't take any more coaching than this: See shot go up, assume it is not going in, most likely it will go off opposite side from whence it came...

    Howe: Time for Change

    I was all for enduring growing pains and giving BF the opportunity to grow into the position. It seemed early on that he was maybe going to be the guy to convince Kirk to open things up and appeared to be trying to do so. But unfortunately the woeful stats after 5 years show he simply ain't...

    Nwankpa Picked The Hawks

    Does his Dad have any eligibility left? Looks like he could play D line

    Really impressed with this team tonight

    I totally forgot about both those guys! But I did say JT MAY be the quickest, allowing space for poor memory.

    Potential

    Was the Big O sick or something? Was weird he didn't get more PT against Cofi. I missed 1st half and only saw him get a couple minutes in 2nd. Seemed like he held his own.

    Potential

    I agree on the potential of this team and am excited to see this season unfold. One can bemoan this loss, but at the same time the Hawks were in it to the end, DESPITE being out-rebounded by THIRTY, hitting 40% from the line and Keagan not so sharp for much of the game. It's EARLY and they...

    Let's knock off #2 two nights in a row starting with our hated rival Purdue official game thread.

    You did indeed miss some fun BB. Most enjoyable loss in memory, if there is such a thing.

    Really impressed with this team tonight

    I'm not sure what label to attach to Joe T, but I more than like what I am seeing from him. He is one tough S.O.B.and may be the quickest guard since Ronnie Lester. Water bug moves and has the TOs under control. Got his shot dropping and not afraid of big moments. I have no problem with him...

    Nice Win on the Road

    Say what ya want about Virginia, but guarantee there will be plenty of good teams leaving that building with an L this season. Virginia found their identity in the 2nd half and shot out their ass from 3. Lots to be encouraged about, Hawks showed zero panic and just gutted out the W. Acted like...

    Lincoln Riley to USC leaving Oklahoma

    Rumor has it during the thanksgiving meal he asked Dad if he was hanging it up anytime soon and didn't like the answer he got.

    Can we hang with michigan???

    The fact it says Michigan and not Ohio State on their jersey is worth at least 7 points if not more.

    Brown: A Tribute to Jordan Bohannon

    He has more than made up for his defensive deficiencies. It seemed like the HAWKS never had a game winning shot go their way for at least a decade or could hit clutch free throws. Then JBO happened! Hoping for 2 or 3 encore performances.

    Nunge taking it to little brother

    Watched a bit of their last game, said he has only been practicing 3 weeks

    Western Mich game thread

    Sandfort is a very nice surprise. Did not expect this out of him out the gate. He has an extremely quick release and no lack of confidence. If he can get a 6th year the Hawks might occupy the top 2 three point spots. After a lackluster first game or two, my man Perkins is starting to turn it...

    Yes, Iowa won, but…

    If one wants to read about how the HAWKS suck on offense but the defense is great you can get that in the football forum. If you need a change of pace go to the BB forum where it's the other way around. HAWKS ARE NINE & TWO, a fixture in the polls, got a shot at the BIG W. Pretty sure about...

    Keegan Murray on Preseason All-B1G Team

    It is really nuts to have a player come in so far under the radar he didn't even set it off. Then in YEAR 2 people are talking FIRST ROUND pick! Has Iowa ever had a player blow up like this, ever? I just really hope he hangs till his junior year for selfish reasons. He wants to play awhile...

    All of a sudden it looks a lot tougher for Iowa

    The real question would be do they watch sports or have they ever played sports of any kind at all, on any level? I've experienced it both as a player and from a coaches box. Your talented team has a great season going, you experience an emotional hard fought win over another great team/rival...

    Your Starting 5 vs. What You Think It Will Actually Be...

    I know this may be a stretch, but I think his game may just remind a few of us older fans of the late great Roy Marble (at least I sure hope so!) Strong, tough, athletic, above the rim player, not afraid to mix it up, scores mostly 10' and in. I think he has a bright future and we are gonna...
