  • Iowa State

    I'm sitting here thinking about how everyone ripped Hoiberg for his rebuilding strategy. I look at this Iowa State team and am VERY impressed and they are extremely exciting to watch.

    I know UNI doesn't have access to these type of transfers. yeah we got Eric Crawford and the kid from Tenn....but we can't keep tapping the small town Iowa well if we ant to get back to the NCAA tourney.

    This is not correct. There is a lot of talent in state, and a decent amount of high major talent.

      Iowa state of looking good but I am very excited with incoming recruits. We are in on a lot of these guys and get some of them and lose some of them.

        They are infinitely more athletically talented and aggressive than we currently are. None of our guys would run through 4 defenders to try to dunk with authority like Clyburn just tried to do. These guys are always working hard for the ball and trying to work it in for a high percentage shot or throwing it back out to the perimeter.

          I thought missed lay ups were exclusively a uni problem until I watched their game with Ohio st.

            I normally hate the Hawkeye rhetoric of UNI doesn't have a single football player that could start at Iowa.

            But watching this Iowa State team at this point in the year. UNI had only 3 players that would make part of Iowa State's Top 8. Those would be Sonnen, Tuttle and Koch, and Koch would struggle and see the least amount of mins as he would be the least athletic....

              Iowa State was a better team last year, and we beat them at Hilton.

                Iowa State v. Wichita would be sweet to watch.

                  Freaking Bubu Palo plays a bunch of minutes for ISU. Deon is most definitely a better player than he is.

                  Which would mean that we have a minimum of 4 guys on our team that are talented enough to play for an upper half Big 12 team. That's pretty good for a mid major.

                    I think we are all pretty familiar with the concept that the better team isn't necessarily the winning team. We would need a great game out of us and a poor game from them to beat them this year.

                      You have not watched the last 3 halfs of BBall against ND and OSU....Its almost impossible for ISU to play at a higher level than they have the past 3 halfs....

                        Anthony Booker was a mediocre player at SIU before transferring to ISU.

                          They looked pretty damn good for most of their Big XII games too. Specifically those first 1 and 39/40ths of games against Kansas.

                            I never said anything about Booker or the backup PG. I said top 8 and UNI would only have 3 of the top 8 players...ISU looks great right now...

                              And he is now 1 inch taller and 25 lbs heavier. Not the same player and he is actually surrounded by talent. He nearly shot 50% from the field when we last saw him. Booker would play more than Chip, Pehl, etc...He can actually drive and bang down low
