    expectation for next year and waxing philosophical

    With a stud point guard and more skilled players, we will probably play at a faster pace.

    Johnston also got a technical in the first half when they were making 3's for excessive celebration.

    Should Coach do the doublecross and have the team shoot early in the shot clock?

    If shooting earlier produces a better shot which produces a higher shooting percentage, I'm for that. Unfortunately, some of our guys routinely miss wide open shots.

    Is Stirtz worn out?

    He shot 34% the past 2 games. Unfortunately, he's the only consistent threat we have.

    Definitely agree. Many of these players should be carrying suitcases.

    Michigan vs MSU

    He falls down alot and expects to get the call. He also dribbles into bigger players going down the court and then stops, hoping they will fall over him and be charged with a foul.

    State bragging rights punch to the gut: Purdue the better program gets stepped on by Indiana for the Natty

    I believe it was the 1958 team. Even though we had 1 lose and 1 tie the Big Ten was the toughest conference and Iowa was the champs. The lose was to Ohio State after we were champs and a lose didn't matter. We were declared national champs by the Football Writers Association.
