If we actually ran the the table to 10-8, that would be give us an 18 win season, with the big ten tourney still to come. If we go 10-8 in the conference, somehow win 2 in the Big Ten tourney to get 20 wins I think that would make us a bubble team. Our non-conference was really bad this year so...

Since we suck and probably will for the foreseeable future, my next level of pride comes from my conference. I need something to cheer for, and it's not going to be the $#$##@ SEC !! Every University in the SEC could blow up and I would quietly clap to myself.

I'm sorry, but what are these running backs doing that's so bad? Potentially 5 running backs transferring or being kicked off the team in a two year period, that nuts. Michigan St let a guy play last year who just got out of jail that week! and there was not a big uproar over that. I...

" Also, Tom Brady has never taken a sack that moved his team out of field goal range. its a FACT." Wow, I will have to look at Tom Brady's high school, college and pro stats for "Took a sack that knocked his team out of field goal range" called TASTKHTOOFGR.

Also, Tom Brady has never taken a sack that moved his team out of field goal range. its a FACT.

Basabe is also one of the best freshman to come through Iowa in the last 10-15 years. Basabe makes it look easy sometimes, so it doesn't seem like he is as dynamic. Tim Duncan is that kind of player also, fundamentally sound and productive. Obviously Basabe is not Tim Duncan, but just using...

Basabe for sure. His understanding of the game is terrific, great body control and excellent fundamentals. He isn't the high flying athlete Smith was but if you take out that excitement factor of Smith's dunking then Basabe wins.

I've always thought DJK runs and moves like Jerry Rice, because he runs without a lot of wasted motion he is moving faster than he looks. Long strides and no side to side movement.

I'm a little concerned that he has a 'workout' video, seems like a little "look at me" attitude.

Maybe this was discussed already, but I just was able to bring myself to get online again today. Was I the only one screaming at the TV last week to let them score quickly in that final drive? We were gassed and had 3rd string linebackers in there, it was obvious we had no ability stop them...

I can't remember a tournament where so many games came down to the last posession, or so many games that went back and forth from beginning to end. Truly one of the favorite tournaments to watch in my lifetime.

What makes me mad is the under the basket camera angle every time somebody has a breakaway. I didn't mind the one shining moment, its usually too many close angles which I frickin hate. I hate that they feel the need to change things up, we don't care if they are creative, they must get bored or...

When Barta hired Lickliter he was the reigning national coach of the year. How is that a bad hire? I think anyone would have made that decison. I think the defections are a combination of some special circumstances and Lickliters desire to only have certain kinds of players. He might be a little...

Jake Kelly's mom being killed in a plane crash is not Licks fault, Anthony Tucker being a drunk is not Licks fault.

I didn't realize that about the Duke recruiting, but you show me anyone who could have recruited a top 50 player to Iowa the last 3 years. And when I say anyone, I mean a coach who would actually take the job at Iowa. I think Lick has had some bad luck and I'm not ready to fire him today.

17-13 6-8 10-17 4-10 11-17 3-11 Can anybody guess who had the above overall and conference records their first 3 years as a head coach?

Just defending yourself that you are not racist does NOT make you racist. Since white people are in the minority and do like to play a certain style of basketball, why not give them an outlet? Stereotypes are created from reality.

Sports Column in Denver was ridiculous...I was upstairs and hugged a complete stranger, and I heard the dj downstairs say "please stay off the furniture" then I ran downstairs to celebrate with the bigger crowd and it was sheer pandomium. Unreal.

It doesn't matter if he TRIED to lead with this head, just like it doesn't matter if somebody tries to grab the facemask. If you accidently grab the facemask, its still a penalty! If you accidently hit somebody's helmet with your helmet, its still penalty. Its not the intent, its the action...

Great thread... I did hug a stranger, and then I went to another room of the bar to high five some friends and never saw him again, I will always wonder if it could have turned into somethig special.
