*****Eastern Illinois vs Iowa Game Thread*****

No, she was couple rows up between the broadcasters when they showed them talking, during the final media timeout of the half, after BTN FINALLY switched over to our game.

Thank you!

 

[Hawkeye_89]

Trey Thompson into the game with 14 minutes to go.

 

[Ty7]

 

[Hawksfor3]

PMac with a 3.

 

[RoseBowlorBust]

I think he'll be more of a Woodbury (great passer) than Garza. I hope you're right and I'm wrong

He can shoot and handle ball like Garza more than a Woodbury but either way we good

 

[HawkBall23]

McCollum, Jr is who we hoped we would see with Hansen last season.

 

[Manfredi]

Little Mac not making his threes the last couple games. That makes him a liability.

[longliveCS40]

Thompson threeeeee

 

[RoseBowlorBust]

I am sick of nepotism with Iowa Mens hoops but little McCollum is good and a legitimate player, IMO.

 

[HawkBall23]

Trey Thompson with a trey!

 

[Hawkeye_89]

Trey Thompson good from 3, like to see that.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Thompson threeeeee

There he is.

I agree. He's just physically limited on D. He has to make open shots to be effective. Very smart player and huge effort guy.

 

[HawksRule25]

Cone shot!

 

[HawkBall23]

Timeout fest going right now .....

I also think Ben will play him the amount of minutes he deserves...no worry in my mind about that.

 

[Hawksfor3]

PMac with a 3.

Sorry guys. Had to.

 

[Wobmam Rulez!]

Timeout fest going right now .....

That's how Ben controls the game. He gets it, Fran didn't.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

McCollum's son may be a stud

I think he's going to be one of those players that plays incredibly hard and makes the smart plays.

Going to drive opposing teams and fans nuts.

I'm sure it's been mentioned before but I could see a Sam Hoiberg type of player.

 

[Rambler Hawk]

Reminds me of Garza very skilled and hard worker. I am stoked. Still can't believe we have the best Coach in the country because he is from Iowa and grew up a Hawkeye. Seriously, pinch me...

Good compare..maybe a dash of Woodie

 

[Hawksfor3]

Coooooon!

 

[ChicagoHawk2020]

Mid 30s and everyone is still slipping? Maybe the court just stinks.

 

[HawkBall23]

So, using a forearm shiver to create space is legal in this game. Ok.

 

[RoseBowlorBust]

Little McCollum I am impressed

 

[Hawksfor3]

44% from 3 now.

 

[longliveCS40]

So as I was saying... McCollum not hitting his threes.

 

[ChicagoHawk2020]

Lil Mc has a nice shot

 

[HawksRule25]

Little Mac another 3

 

[Hawksfor3]

I like Coleman, but dribbling into a crowd aint ideal.

 

[HawkBall23]

As long as they're dropping, great, but they seem really reliant on the 3pt shot in these first 2+exhib games.

 

[QChawks]

baby Mac is a gamer

Wish he was a bit taller

 

[RoseBowlorBust]

Little McCollum I am impressed

Times 2

I wish he was a little bit taller. But he is a baller.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Under 8 TO.

 

[HawkBall23]

Tell ya what .... Lil McCollum has got a decent 3ball stroke if has the room to get the shot off.

 

[Manfredi]

Did we hire Ben just to get Peyton

 

[Rambler Hawk]

Yeah, she would definitely be a mink between the sheets!

 

[HawkBall23]

Pink, is my new obsession. With pink, its not even a question.

 

[Ozzie89]

Coon just knows how to move without the ball
