    Shocker the refs were terrible

    There were some bad calls, some missed calls, there always are, but that isn’t why Illinois won the game. We could never solve the size difference, and their defense down the stretch sealed the deal. They’ll be a tough out next weekend. It was a heckuva run. Ben is going to need to hit the...

    Ben McCollum is a mad scientist

    It’s incredible what two wins can do for a program. The recruiting trail is going to be much smoother for Ben and I’m all for it.

    Refs are supposed to check for the correct number of players on court. View AI search; did they screw up the do-over?

    That’s a shame. Pretty stupid rule. Why should the officials be responsible for helping a team who is about to make a stupid mistake?

    Jaidyn Coon Storm Lake

    We have 3 seniors leaving, with a possibility of Banks returning, and one guy, Harris, already on board. If Banks returns do we want to use the only available scholarship on another SF? Seems like a PG is a must and an established big in the portal would be the next top priority.

    Jack McCaffery in the transfer portal

    So, he wasn't going to come to Iowa when his dad coached here, but you think he might come here to play for the guy who replaced his dad? I’d say you have a better chance of winning the powerball than another McCaffrey playing at Iowa. That said, wish he and his dad the best, and hope CC dumps...

    FL coach late timeouts; coach Ben better decisions

    I haven’t watched much Florida this season, but for a coach who has received so much praise, Golden fumbled that game in the last 10 seconds. In the PC he stated he wanted to put Iowa at the line, up 2, thinking at worst they are tied up with a chance to win or go to OT. As dumb as that is...

    Ben McCollum Postgame Press Conference after Ohio State Loss (plus Bennett, Howie, Trevin, Alvaro, Brendan & Cam)

    I like Ben, but I don’t care for his take on the Hausen shot. You can’t assume you’re going to get fouled, or get the call in that situation. Perhaps tOSU is yelling “foul him” to make you believe they are about to foul, fooling you into doing exactly what you just did. Ugly sequence.

    Brutal to Watch Ben's One Dimensional Offense

    It’s not a thing of beauty, that’s for sure, but it’s year one with a pieced together lineup made up of mid major guys who will be playing in the tournament. Fran would be 10-16 right now with this team. Things are moving in the right direction.

    Hoiberg punches a Iowa fan at the end of the game?

    Poor decisions all around. Can you imagine the outrage if Fran would have done that while at Iowa? Fred will likely get a pass due to his squeaky clean image but it’s definitely strike one.

    Your Favorite Hawkeye Basketball Teams (men)

    Too young at the time to remember the 80 squad. The 86-87 team was by far the best Iowa BB team in my lifetime; they should have won it all. If you’re bored some night, pull up the Oklahoma sweet 16 game up on youtube. That’s a top 5 all-timer
