Re: Up Next: Wyoming

That's why I'm frustrated with sitting Klint in 2nd hAlf. I think he's a guy where you gotta stoke the fire....not tamp it down. Klint's best when he finds his edge...a little piss and vinegar in his attitude.

What good does sitting him do? Just telling him not to show emotion? Counter productive.

To wake him up for the rest of the season. At large chances were basically gone after the GM game anyway

Teachable moment. No one is bigger than the team. If you can't control your emotions it will cost the team down the stretch.

Re: Up Next: Wyoming

Completely agree regarding Klint. I honestly noticed this some last season towards the end of the season when he started getting hot. It's almost like he has to break through this mental barrier about his game in order to start driving to the basket.

I think confidence is definitely an issue as in the first half when we were cold, it seemed like nobody wanted to be the one to take the shot, they just kept passing to the next person. Obviously got better as the game went on though.

There is definitely young talent there though and it will get better as the season goes on and into the following seasons.

Sounds like late in the game vs George Mason and Wyoming. Nobody wants to step up an make the plays we need. Did people really think at large chance were done after the GM loss? It just meant we needed to avoid another bad loss, but to say it at large chances were done is either just speaking in frustration, complete ignorance, and/or just stupidity. We had 3 losses - two to a team ranked in the top 10. Yep, it was all over then.

Coach is not a happy camper...

On potential lineup changes: "I told them 'guys who want to be in the startling lineup, be prepared to show up Monday.'"

On if he anticipates any line up changes: "WE'll learn a lot about that on Monday."

Did he confirm that Carlson was benched due to the technical? Or was there another reason?

And it could be worse. Iowa lost to Omaha today.

Yes...

"He got (a technical) in Orlando...we discussed it as a team and decided it won't happen again. Obviously it did. We're not going to have that."

Anybody on Twitter who follows UNI people, follow Clay Cunningham @CJCunningham3. He's the new beat writer for the Courier, doing a pretty good job so far.

Why did Koch not play? And when are he and Lohaus expected to return?

On Bennett Koch: "He felt ill last night. He was a little better today but I wasn't comfortable putting him out there."

To wake him Up?

He got a technical against Oklahoma and took over the game. Isn't that what we need right now.

Not every player is the same. We all know those guys who could be a little sleepy in a game til something happened to piss them off and then suddenly they became twice the player. I think Carlson's one of those guys. It's not like he took a swing at someone.

I love our guys. But it's hard to win at this level with 10 boy scouts. You gotta have some edge and raw toughness in the roster.

Re: Up Next: Wyoming

Wish I had a dollar for every time I saw an offensive player put out a forearm while driving without a foul being called. I get Carlson's frustration. Jake's teaching point was, I'm sure, that bad calls are part of the game and composure must be kept.

This. We need someone to be pissed off once in a while. It's not like he threw a punch...

Iowa shot 41% from 3 too.

Sounds like they just got ole fashion whopped.

We better beat those guys........

Re: Up Next: Wyoming

Dam--this thread reads just like the football threads from the past season.

I'm blaming Hartzell for hiring these two incompetents (Jake and Farley).

In my opinion, now athletic director Harris should consider, on a rotating basis, associate head coaches drawn from within the contributors on Panther Nation.

The second thing Harris should do is make Panther Nation required reading forboth Jake and Farley where they would gather a wealth of useful suggestions to retro any loss into a win. This forum has an unbelievable number of absolutely correct reasons why we have lost and of what the coaches do wrong. These assessments are in contrast to the experienced coach's decisions that are based on players, practices and past game results. Of course we on this board have never walked in their shoes but have learned all that we know playing jv football/basketball and watching ESPN Sports Center.

I don't think you're grasping the purpose of a fan forum.

Re: Up Next: Wyoming

Carlson slammed the ball into the ground after getting an offensive foul. Heat of the moment. No biggie.

He did this against George Mason but didn't get a T. Personally, I don't think it deserves it, but if they are going to call it, he needs to find another way to channel his angst.
