    "Better" = Iowa State or Iowa I'm sure. LMFAO!

      I liked the end of the game when Tuttle got the ball in the lane behind ISU's defense.

      Coulda thrown a dunk in the closing seconds to put on an exclamation point.

      Just turned toward the UNI bench and covered up the ball.

      No need to celebrate or do something flashy. Just act like you thought you were going to win. That's when you see the coach show up in the players.

      Had ISU been in that spot, they woulda thrown it down and the students probably would've stormed the court. "Oh my god...I can't believe we actually won a friggin game against a team with a winning record!!"

        Mcdermott's teams played decently as a team, but we just sucked for 4 years.
        Wayne Morgan's teams played well as a team, but just didn't play defense. He had decent success in his 3 years.
        And Finally, Eustachy's teams played well enough as a team to go to the Elite 8 and win the Big 12 title in back to back seasons.
        Really........who cares?

          I agree. At least ISU has figured out how to get pro-ISU announcers to do their broadcasts. I can handle that...I can't handle UNI broadcasts being done by guys who know more about our opposition than our own team. Just play Rima and Boyle over the video!! I know they can't do that (KWWL), but it would be awesome.

            Uthoff and Oglesby are from Cedar Rapids. I think you're making my point.
            I understand AAU has changed the landscape of high school bb and recruiting, but I still think there is a big concern over taking kids from very small schools, right or wrong. Give me some examples of 1A kids getting recruited by BCS powerhouses and I'll reconsider. I'm just real happy to have Seth at UNI and don't care who missed out on him.

              Ditto... Coleman and Brooks are Hawkeye guys (heck, Brooks is the sideline reporter for the Iowa football network). I say let Chuck and Jay Grassley call the game... Mabye FoxNews would pick it up nationwide!

                LOL you were the one who brought it up and I was just proving you wrong.
                Don't talk smack when you don't know the facts.
                Yes you won, congratulations, but there's no reason to go on talking smack about ISU like it's some historical problem.

                  Personally I was kinda mad he didn't go ahead and dunk it, maybe do a 180 tomahawk or something. I guess I'm just not as big a man as you, Jake, or Seth.

                  ISU was still playing to steal the inbounds with no time left and no chance to win. We beat them with a pass over the press, we earned a dunk. It's not like the kneel down in football or even like when a classy team calls off the dogs in the final seconds of a lost bb game when you just hold the ball and all stand around watching the clock run out.

                        Good to hear it. I will say that KWWL deserves some major props of late. They really seem to give UNI top billing on their broadcasts and have stepped up their coverage. Good job on that front, KWWL. Keep it up. It is not going un-noticed.

                          it all comes down to AAU

                          wisconsin has a kid coming in next year that plays in the smallest school class up there and hes ranked like #20 nationally because of his summer performances.

                          plus a lot of kids with big time talent transfer to larger schools before or during high school.

                            MFL was a 2a school if that matters. But that was all I could think of. And he did a lot of AAU ball too.

                              Actually, I think MFL MAR MAC might be a 2 or 3A school. First name that came to mind. Sorry.
