    Dominating Effort by the Boys Lastnight

    How about the all out, butbutt kicking the Bballers put on the Ramblers lastnight? When these guys are clicking on all cylinders they are VERY good. Great effort all around, started with defense and then it poured over into offense. John and Crawford stopped their best players, Ben and Coleman put up some big points, Grand blocked shots all over the place. And this Rambler team is a good team. Great win and decent shooting to get the confidence up before Tuesday, and the long home strech. Anyway, so how did it look for the people who were actually there? Eric Braley (spelling?) did a great job subbing for Rima as well.

    We looked like a different team than the one I have seen earlier this season. We were agressive on both ends. IMHO Loyola didn't look like a very good team, but I'm hoping that was due to us and not them. Things that still need to be corrected before Iowa on Tuesday is Brooks needs to get something to fall. He has no confidence in his shot right now and it shows with him passing up some open looks that he CAN knock down. Grant needs to work hard the whole time he is in the game. I could hear Mac yelling at him to WANT THE BALL. Granted we were up but he was kind of going through the motions at that point. He needs to be a force on the offensive end. Crawford looked to have his best game as did Benny. John Little played a good game and was agressive on the offensive end too. Not too many things to work on as I said the best game I have seen them play this year. See ya'll Tuesday!

      Will it be this team that shows up to play Iowa, or the same team that played Iowa State?

        I think we are past the Iowa State phase!
        Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier'n puttin' it back.

        Before you wonder "Am I doing things right," ask "Am I doing the right things?"

            "Iowa State phase"
            No idea what that means.....but we were wiped out and humiliated. To me, NO excuses, when everyone says this program gets "no respect" and should be ranked nationally, etc.
            So, "Iowa State phase" means we no longer expect to beat anyone of any significance? Sad......

              i went to the uni-isu game and i would hardly say the panthers were wiped out and humiliated. rather, i thought it was a hard fought game against a decent opponent. their shots were a little off, but isu is tough.

              i think by iowa state phase, they were talking about a slow start and the need to find their shots and a rhythm, not that we cant play with big 12 type schools.

                Canuck you are being very pessimistic here, the boys had an off night and against a team that will be a top 25 team, and will make the NCAA tourny and we only lost by 8, i know a loss is a loss, but we did not get blown out by any means at all. The guys are getting back on track and there are A LOT of games left to be played. And it will be a great season. So everyone better be at the game tuesday because it freaking sucks when the suckeyes have more people in the dome than the panthers. But everyone needs to remember this is non-conference time, and its very early in the season as well its all going to be just fine.

                  Iowa State is a good team, they are just inconsistent. They also remembered very fondly what happened last year so it was not hard for the clones to get up this time around. There is no shame in that loss. Yes it hurts to lose to an instate rival, but they but us fair and square.
                  This program is getting respect. Before the Iowa State game, this team was receiving more votes than them in the national polls.

                    No doubt that we didn't take care of business. IMHO though we didn't look like we were even in the same league as ISU as far as athletes. I'll attribute that to an off night which will happen. It's just too bad that it had to happen against ISU on TV. We need a much different performance against Iowa or we are going to continue to hear about UNI being the little sister school. It doesn't make us look any better when ISU lays another egg at home against Fresno State. Say what you will but UNI is a better team than Iona or Fresno State (I sincerely hope).

                    BTW, I would love to see Drake knock off ISU on Tuesday...

                      Great win last night. The Panthers didn't get going for a while, but they turned it on. Viet had a nice half putting up the shots when they are open. That is the reason that he is in there, so he needs to be confident and just put up the shot. Now it's just a matter of Brooks getting some confidence and this team will be VERY tough to stop for anybody on the schedule. Iowa, Creighton, LSU...I'm liking the Panthers chances.
