Re: Who wants to play in Carver next week?
So the answer for Iowa is not to play 300+ RPI Texas A&M Crappiest Crispy, and not to play RPI 144 Drake, but to find some middle ground team?Originally posted by 9YRPLAN View PostIs it asking this board to think above the media drivel too much or what?
Iowa could have still scheduled cupcakes and made the tourney. This isn't hard to understand. They just needed to schedule 200-rpi teams instead of 300-rpi types. Also, playing uni in dsm was a net gain over playing at carver as originally scheduled.
So quit playing the butthurt card "that'll learn em!" card because it simply doesn't apply here.
The committee is obviously telling schools to schedule up, and has been doing so for a few years now. Iowa threw away an in-state road trip and an in-state home game every year against decent mid-major competition in favor of one mid-major on a neutral court and a cupcake at home. That is the opposite of scheduling up.__________________

He was at Nortre Dame but got in trouble for stealing and using credit cards. Maybe that is why he like iowa? Wasn't there to long.Originally posted by UNIpanther99 View PostDidn't Goettlieb get recruited by McCaffery at Notre Dame? Sound more like a shout out to an old friend than a realistic prediction."Another six or seven years and 1988 will be made to feel slightly unwelcome, I'm sure."

I wish they would extend this to the bubble teams. I would like to see how far away Iowa really was. Should be pretty far

I thought that was Seth Davis who said he got all the teams in.Originally posted by CyCarp View PostHe either got embarrassed or is a liar. On the telecast I'm pretty sure he said he had all the teams who got in correct.

And how many other times was the contract "up" in decades they had been playing every year?Originally posted by 9YRPLAN View PostThe Drake contract was up. They wouldn't play a single game. Maybe you missed it but this has been discussed ad nauseum.__________________

Feel free to point out anything I've posted that isn't fact.Originally posted by 06panther10 View Post'99, you're clearly just a "butthurt" hater Panther fan. 9yr only presents reason and facts.
I've been pretty clear on my opinion over the past few months ... I didn't think iowa was getting in, because they lacked big road wins and their rpi was too low thanks to a poor OOC SOS.

Iowa doesn'treally have much flexibility unless they want to give up home dates. Drake and uni arent just coming to carver or Hilton, which is too bad.Originally posted by UNIpanther99 View PostAnd how many other times was the contract "up" in decades they had been playing every year?
