    Coach has got to get comfortable with the idea that u might have to add a couple guys to the roster that have a little piss and vinegar in them. A couple kids that might not match your personality.

    I don't have a problem with anyone on our roster. It's whose not on it.

    We need kids who can get you 10-15 a night. Who can get you 8-10 boards a night. Those kids might be a little tougher to coach or to fit into your culture. But you need players to win at this level.
    Winning is more fun than losing.

      And the maddening thing is, Jake *has* won on this level.

        Lol, of course he cares, settle down. I'm not even talking about his on court antics for God's sake, but spin what I said as you will. I'm a big fan of coach Jake and how he carries himself on the court. That's his style

        The Fran hate might be the stupidest thing on this forum however. Get over it, he hasn't done anything worth whining over in like 4 years.

          Team played pretty well. Played hard. Just can't buy a bucket. Feel for the kids.

I cannot fathom how you can put together a roster that is lacking both a post presence and a single player that can actually penetrate. You would be hard-pressed to find a SWAC team that is lacking in both areas. This was a regular NCAA team just a few years ago. There is no excuse for putting together a roster like this. And it is really too bad because we have some really good players, but they are not allowed to perform at their best because we are lacking in those areas.
            Phyfe was to be that "post presence" you talk about. His medical condition, frequently passing out, has taken that away. With Luke, Biggie and Dahl also filling in at the 4 or 5 position, we could have been respectable, but without Phyfe leading the group, we are really lacking in the post.

              Played well? Are you serious?

              2nd consecutive uncompetitive 30 point massacre to a D1 opponent sandwiched around an almost loss to an awful D3 team.

              The standard here at UNI has always been competing for championships and NCAA tournaments. I cannot believe where this program is sitting right now.

                It's one of those seasons that the chips didn't fall our way - Pick starting the season hurt and never getting on track, Phyfe's illness, Croft not being eligible (although that may have been known). This team is missing chemistry.

                I trust help is on the way with Croft, Carter, Henry, Betz, and Krogmann.

                  I sure hope help is on the way because this team doesn’t have the tools to compete this year.

                    I am serious. There's a difference between not playing well and not shooting well. Those kids played really hard. They got good shots most of the game. They guarded decently well. They competed.

                    Obviously if they keep shooting this poorly they won't win games which is the point of playing. But they were competitive in pretty much every aspect of the game tonight aside from making shots. That's easier to work with than a team that doesn't play hard and doesn't compete.

                    The standard is the same. Everyone on the team has the same goals as they always have. Not sure what your point is. Losing to Iowa in December doesn't matter much when it comes to your standard of winning championships and going to the tournament. Relax.

                      We were ahead by 10 in the 2nd half?

                        The Valley just went 0 for Saturday with some horrific losses. Let's let it shake out. League is wide, wide open.

                            You watched a different game then the rest of us. Zero defense, hammered on the glass, zero presence inside and offense just launched deep 3s over and over with no ball movement. The personnel are as bad as the jim berry days

                              I assume we will see full bar service delivered to your seat at home games.

                                This game was over after the first five minutes... we could all see that. We can't score and can't keep the other team from scoring. How can this team be this BAD. I read that UNI & Iowa have split the last 14 meetings... that can not be true. Iowa has been a much better team then the Panthers. I HATE the Hawkeyes. Do we have any more D3 schools on our schedule?
