******Xavier vs Iowa Game Thread******

[longliveCS40]

Passing is looking crisp in the last few minutes.

 

[StuckAsAnon]

Sage and Jirak are playing pretty well tonight. Jirak is a great passer too

 

[Skydog0784a!]

Impressed with Sage and Jirak so far, limited data point though.

 

[HawkBall23]

Really glad the Hawks drew Xavier tonight and not Santa Clara.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Howard with 3 turnovers. SMH.

 

[Franisdaman]

Howard had 3 turnovers in the first 2 minutes & Ben yanked him for Combs.

Howard will return with 10:20 to go

 

[Manfredi]

Howard with 3 turnovers. SMH.

And he hasn't gotten back in.

 

[Franisdaman]

Xavier getting waaaaay too many open looks from behind the arc.

hmmmm

sounds familiar

 

[Franisdaman]

Feels like a Fran defense

 

[Manfredi]

 

[HawkBall23]

Telling ya, Stirtz+Sage+Jirak is the winning combo tonight.

 

[Franisdaman]

Jirak with 2 assists and 2 pts in 3 minutes

 

[2D]

Gotta guard the perimeter better, leaving these dudes wide open.

 

[NoPuntsNoPeace]

I really believe Beth nailed this basketball hire.

 

[Manfredi]

Youtube disney fight is over

 

[HawkBall23]

Fk you, Pfeifer.

Good D and knock away there.

 

[2D]

That looked clean to me, shouldn't have been a foul.

 

[Franisdaman]

I think I am speaking for everyone when I say I miss Fran.

 

[Manfredi]

I think I am speaking for everyone when I say I miss Fran.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Youtube disney fight is over

Who won?

 

[HawkBall23]

Kelly Pfeiffer doing his job as a ref . . .

 

[QChawks]

Who won?

 

[Manfredi]

Who won?

I know youtube was wanting the whole ESPN select package but I doubt disney caved on that...we probably all lost

 

[QChawks]

I miss jess settles and the college kid announcer

 

[Franisdaman]

 

[longliveCS40]

Xavier has had 7 fouls forever and Iowa hasn't capitalized on it.

 

[Hawksfor3]

I think I am speaking for everyone when I say I miss Fran.

Just heard in to the Duke/WVU women’s game that WVU has only five players available.

They said there was a scuffle before halftime and the entire WVU bench came onto the court and was ejected.

 

[83Hawk]

I have been saying for years….the University must have a rule against guarding the 3 point shot.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Nice move Cam.

 

[QChawks]

 

[HawkBall23]

I've never understood why people make such a weak attempt at fouling on plays like those.

A free 3 pts if the foulee is a decent FT shooter.

 

[longliveCS40]

Banks feels like a kid that will continue to get better and have a good NBA career.

 

[Manfredi]

Like Fran can do anything besides fold his arms and scowl...punching...lol

 

[2D]

We sure this dude isn't 35?

 

[DTP2]

I wonder why it was decided the it is not a back court violation if the defense tips it off of offense.

 

[longliveCS40]

I've never understood why people make such a weak attempt at fouling on plays like those.

A free 3 pts if the foulee is a decent FT shooter.

Agreed. Go 80's Pistons or don't foul at all on those.

 

[QChawks]

We sure this dude isn't 35?

He reminds me of every guy that hangs out at the YMCA

 

[Hawksfor3]

10 points for Bennett. Everyone else, not so much.
