So ******* tired of watching our men's programs lose. So tired of it. This was a sure win. Dumbass Howard.
Right now, I can’t think of one other than when we lost at home to the Campbell camels a few years agoName a worse loss ever.
Thank you. Hopefully, this silences all the "where is Hausen???" folks. @IowaLawpeople calling for hausen to play are morons, he sucks and bad coaching having him play that many minutes
I don't think this was coaching at all. He's screaming on the sideline for the team to foul, in a building that had less attendance than the covid season, and no one is listening. This loss is on the players. (I'm not a coach apologist but the team looked like they didn't give a sh*t all game. No fire for anything)This is the coach everyone is gushing over?? Good grief that was terrible basketball again. Just poorly coached all around.
The whole team is inconsistent on both ends of the floor though. There are such huge swings in play one 4-minute segment to the next.Because he’s all the team has. The rest is inconsistent hot garbage.
We even had 4 opportunities with 3 shots and turnover on one possession. Let worst team on conference shoot 64%We were leading 67-62.
Lose 69-71.
PATHETIC
31 pt favorite to eastern Illinois few years agoName a worse loss ever.
Was thinking the same thing. Pretty much called the loss at that point.WHY did Bennett make his move to get the bucket with 9 seconds left on the game clock!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Of all the times to rush a basket attempt, that was NOT IT!!!!!!!!!
You miss game over. When you are down take the best shot where ever the clock isWHY did Bennett make his move to get the bucket with 9 seconds left on the game clock!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

The team doesn’t have the talent this year. It is what it is. They can beat anybody if the stars align, they can lose to anybody if they don’t. The people complaining about McCollum already need to get a grip. The coaching is there, but he’s gonna need time to get the right players in place.
Throwing the ball in to a guy 75 feet from the basket, with 1.5 seconds left, is stupid.All I could think of with 1.2 left is take a chance on a deep throw don't be stupid and inbound it in the backcourt.
Then I thought ****.
Ben leaving Hausen on the floor down the stretch killed us. I’m putting a lot of today’s blame on coach.It's pretty evident that this roster isn't responding to McCollum's coaching.
Mental midgets.
That's 3 horrid losses.
I don't feel like going back and listing them all. Iowa has played basketball for a lot of years........Name a worse loss ever.
plus combs acted like he couldn't move.Throwing the ball in to a guy 75 feet from the basket, with 1.5 seconds left, is stupid.
Way too small of a sample size to judge thatHis portal eval ability looks suspect.
With that thinking, why wasn't a shot attempt drawn up for the hot hand - IE, Coop in a corner?You miss game over. When you are down take the best shot where ever the clock is
I’m sitting courtside but for the life of me why was Hausen in the game so much? Their last basket was just taking advantage of him.
Because if he doesn’t make it you want another chance?WHY did Bennett make his move to get the bucket with 9 seconds left on the game clock!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Braindead stuff. Just chuck it towards the hoop and maybe you get lucky. Losing was upsetting enough and then they topped it off with doing the dumbest thing possible. A few room temp IQ moments from the guys closing this out.Throwing the ball in to a guy 75 feet from the basket, with 1.5 seconds left, is stupid.
Man, that was so demoralizing as I sat here and watched.We even had 4 opportunities with 3 shots and turnover on one possession. Let worst team on conference shoot 64%
Of all the possessions in last 5 minutes that's about the last 1 to questionWith that thinking, why wasn't a shot attempt drawn up for the hot hand - IE, Coop in a corner?
In the end, doesn't matter. Hawks absolutely deserved this horrible loss.
Sorry, but IMO Iowa will get blown out in both gamesWe can't beat the bottom feeders but we do much better again the other teams which bodes well for our upcoming games.
tomorrowAnd what, 1 actual good win in the most boring game ever against Nebraska?
What is it about Iowa basketball and their ability to make me a believer only to turn around and crush those beliefs. I’m about done with Iowa men’s basketball. When do the women play?
Worst part it all started with a miss off an easy 4-5 ft shot by combs.Man, that was so demoralizing as I sat here and watched.
All that hustle to buy 3 extra attempts to get points and it all ends in a whimper with a turnover.
I think Combs mentally checks out sometimesplus combs acted like he couldn't move.
