And Foster's parents likely wishing they guided him towards Iowa City...?
I was more quoting your quote of Connor but that doesn't come through on this version of HaLo.

No one “blew a gasket” that Niang blew a kiss, Harold.

I don't know, Connor tweaking Iowa State, Niang with the Iowa stuff and bohannon and his shoes, are different than the booster going after the refs.

The players all wanted the reaction. They enjoyed the response. The dude being held back my the security guard is just fucking bonkers.

Absolutely, but I will share that photo in these type of situations on Halo as long as I’m around.

With Garza coming back, I get this feeling when thinking about playing teams like MSU, Iowa State, and Wisconsin:

Iowa people should really calm the fuck down. Talking about contending for a Big Ten Championship is one thing, all the talk I have seen of Final 4 or winning it all is a bit crazy given how fickle the NCAA Tournament can be based on your matchup.

Players wanting to say it, fine, but seeing a whole shitload of fans act like Iowa is a lock for NCAA glory.

I try to not set up myself for disappointment but we canceled the fucking ncaa tournament so it can’t get any worse than that.

Let us not forget bohannon tweeting the night before the game "Lames tomorrow night", which is some first-rate shit-talking/calling your shot.

Iowa should be pretty fucking good. But we also play in the I am a giant douche where officiating does not favor our style of play, so winning the league is gonna be a challenge

The Big Ten talk is fine with me, they play a shit ton of conference games, but yes the NCAA tournament talk is ridiculous. I'll admit I would be happy with a sweet 16 run. Although it would be considered an underperformance with the talent on the team, the tournament is a fucking bear and I'd be happy with any run.

They need to make it to the second weekend. Its all gravy after that, though I'm sure I won't feel that way when it happens.

Well, if you are a contender for the Big Ten Regular Season Title, then you’re a National Title contender. Calling them a “national title contender” isn’t out of bounds on its own. Now if someone says “expect Iowa to make the Final Four” or something like that, then it is worthy of scorn.

Yeah, that is what I am talking about. There are more than a few that I saw.

Give me a second weekend appearance, the first since 19 freaking 99, and I’ll be a hamper camper. Anything beyond that is gravy.

If at some point we lose in the NCAA tournament I will be pissed regardless of the round.
So fuck off.

I don’t see where Ayo fits on the next level. Good college player but his game is lots of garbage

Please wait for an official schedule and focus on the first bake ONLY. Can’t look through anyone.
