***2024-2025 Iowa Men’s Basketball Season Thread***

[Gushawk]

They may not qualify for it.

Team led by Big Fart stink

 

[snips]

NOT SO FAST MY FRIEND....

 

[Fritz Fequiere]

Can’t decide if I want them to win or lose tonight

 

[Thomas Wolsey]

Fuck Penn State

 

[Hawkstrat]

Can’t decide if I want them to win or lose tonight

I hope you get gout.

 

[Fritz Fequiere]

I hope you get gout.

Who are you rooting for?

 

[Hawkstrat]

Who are you rooting for?

Not to be too much of a contrarian, but I hope Iowa wins.

 

[Lee Beevers]

Not to be too much of a contrarian, but I hope Iowa wins.

My preference is for the Hawkeyes to prevail in all their athletic competitions!

 

[douglasbader]

They play tonight?

 

[KitKatApples]

Yep. Basketball even

 

[Fritz Fequiere]

Basketball way more so than football can be turned around in one year. Frans got to go.

 

[Geese]

They play tonight?

Lol I had no idea either

 

[Fritz Fequiere]

I like how the camera just caught Kingsbury and Mulvey looking at each other like they can’t fucking believe they’re out there playing in a real game.

 

[Monster]

Fucking maddening. The offense is flowing, Iowa gets a nice lead, then they go into this stall bullshit. Take time off the clock and then chuck a shitty shot with 2 seconds left on the shot clock. That is NOT Iowa's game. Just run the fucking offense.

 

[roseboundhawk]

Not an encouraging victory.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Kingsbury didn't play

 

[The Dad]

That was fun! Gutty team! Gutty win! Clangers on these boyz!!!

 

[CamelTones]

Fran should be recruiting over Brock Harding as he walks off the floor.

Iowa didn’t score the last 3:28.

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

Need video of that Penn State dunk early 2nd half. It's probably the single worst defensive possesion in the history of college basketball.

Brock would be fine in a reserve role. Imo he's hardly the problem.

Gonna need to narrow that down a little

 

[Hawkstrat]

Harding just shouldn't be a starting PG. Hit some FTs down the stretch and it wouldn't have really mattered.

I'm not talking about the officiating, but the high knees thing is just so strange. Does he have a physical disability or something?

 

[Hawkstrat]

I mean, that is a pretty big problem.

He had a chiro tell him to run with his knees up to take pressure off his back.

 

[Monster]

I mean, that is a pretty big problem.

Is it the #1 problem?

 

[BBK]

Still alive for the postseason!

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

Gonna need to narrow that down a little

The one when it was 47-42

 

[BBK]

Our remaining schedule is pretty brutal for this team. Only sure win is UW at home.

We could srsly lose the next 6 games and it wouldn't really surprise me

Sure win lolz

Pick-and-roll defense, rebounding in general, then Brock.

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

"whoops" - the announcer.

Also Dix just continuing to point is great .

 

[iowa4ever20]

There are no sure wins with this team. The schedule is brutal. Washington is a Quad 3 game, at Rutgers is a Quad 2 game and every other remaining game is Quad 1. Plenty of opportunities. It’s all right there in front of them!

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

Harding and Freeman :

 

[Monster]

Pick-and-roll defense, rebounding in general, then Brock.

I think you attended the L. Wade ChildressSchool of Contrarianism.

 

[Hawkstrat]

I think you attended the L. Wade ChildressSchool of Contrarianism.

Your overzealous defense of players you think are being too harshly criticized is pretty much the definition of contrarian.

Also, conceding that he isn't the number one issue, is not at all contrarian.

 

[Stomper15]

Penn State had a net rating of 49. Iowa is in the 60s. So I guess take it.

 

[Fletch]

They’re so close to being 1-8. Very fortunate to be where they are.

 

[Monster]

You're still being a contrarian. What I said about Harding was hardly overzealous. So stand down, Wade.

 

[Hawkstrat]

I'm dangerously close to adding you to the list of people I want to get gout.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Gout is no laughing matter

 

[Monster]

I'm dangerously close to adding you to the list of people I want to get gout.

It would hardly be my biggest health issue.

 

[BBK]

I have a gout flare up once or twice a year.

Probably from booze and being a tremendous fatass for 8 years

 

[Monster]

Interesting he has a list.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Kingsbury didn't play

That’s why it’s funny

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I think you attended the L. Wade ChildressSchool of Contrarianism.

Again, I would not have to take the opposite side of every argument if you guys weren’t so fucking stupid.

Defended the 3 point line well here.

(Someone please send this to Beth Goetz)

 

[Gushawk]

Disappointing win.

 

[TurdBurgler]

If traore is available we should be starting him over Brock and playing him in crunch time. The lineup with Brock isn't bad and can put up points but we need defense and rebounding and it's right there on the bench.
