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

[Hawk&Balls]

I’m often right. It just requires some introspection and confidence to accept that.

Blind squirrel is right twice a day

 

[Hawk&Balls]

I wish there were an NCAA tournament that rewarded good first halves.

It's called the NIT

 

[tallperson54]

I have High Point/Winthrop on my other screen. If Iowa hired HP's coach, I wouldn't be upset.

 

[The Dad]

I like how Harding’s release is different every time he shoots. Even when he’s wide open.

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Owen freeman has gotten even fatter. What a piece of shit.

Payton's physical weakness and lack of awareness when to shoot are Fran's fault for S&C program and roster construction. I will miss him and his passion for Iowa.

 

[CleteyColgate]

I'm starting to wonder what Fran does as a coach. Fran doesn't coach defense apparently and his offense is basically run-and-gun.

This is objectively stupid

I’m as anti Fran as anyone right now. That was dumb.

We, mav

I think it's likely that Iowa will hire someone more defensive oriented. In the same way they found a coach that was willing to yell at refs and play fast following Lick.

High Point is 23rd in offense, and 235th in defense. Although they do play at a slower pace.

 

[Dr. Zaius]

Traore is a man

 

[Herbie2]

Holy fucking rebound.

 

[HerkyHopeful]

That was the right call, those Nebrantska guys were being fags

 

[Stomper15]

Dembele lacks coordination

 

[The Dad]

Traore is a man

Who isn’t a P5 starter.

 

[Kerky]

When was the last time there was a chat for a men's game?

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Was it the last game? One popped up recently

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I sent an email to Garta when Fran was hired and recommended that they hire Huss as an assistant. I know him a bit through a friend and he’s a good combination of engaging and shady.

I remain a master strategist.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Who isn’t a P5 starter.

He should transfer to Fresno and let Kirk’s son, Brian Ferentz coach him up

 

[Herbie2]

Thelwell playing some great D.

 

[The Dad]

Autistic celebration.

 

[CleteyColgate]

Love these kids

Guys are not quitting on Fran!

Good grief.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Could they have taken the points away? Because that would have been retarded. And I say this as a fan whose home court clock gets fucked up 3x per game.

 

[Fletch]

Oh come on.

It’s essentially the same as a broken clock finds a nut every now and then.

What did garta reply back?

 

[Will McCoy]

It's called the NIT

 

[L. Wade Childress]

What did garta reply back?

he said thanks and we could talk at Easter

 

[6deuce]

Brauns should be starting over Dembele if Iowa doesn’t fuck it up today.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Huss will not get the Iowa job as long as Beth is here BTW

 

[6deuce]

How big of a faggot do you have to be to use the phrase “Good grief”? I bet Payton uses it every time he’s called for a foul.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Brauns should be starting over Dembele if Iowa doesn’t fuck it up today.

it’s not even close, tbh. With our shooting all we really need is a banger who’s willing to guard and rebound.

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Brauns wouldn't ever be able to stay out of foul trouble, but I agree he should be there first option out of he, Dembele, and Mulvey.

 

[The Dad]

He’s a big “heavens to Betsie” guy.

Im not advocating for Huss, but why?

 

[Floyd R]

I would love to see Iowa shit on Nebrantska’s tourney chances. That 19 point meltdown at Devaney Arena in 2013 is still singed into my memory.

 

[Hawkstrat]

Im not advocating for Huss, but why?

Don't encourage whatever the fuck he's doing here.

 

[The Dad]

Harding thinks we get points for dribbles.

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Fartmen can't box out Gary

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Nebrantska is terrible

 

[Will McCoy]

He’s a big “heavens to Betsie” guy.

I made the mistake of buying a beer called that. Subpar. Do not recommend.

Was thinking about that, this morning….I drove over there to watch that debacle.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Im not advocating for Huss, but why?

Not sure.

I just know HPU has a much bigger NIL budget than us. And a much better arena. And climate.

 

[The Dad]

Death threats!!!

 

[Herbie2]

what a terrible shot

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Dix has had some creative passes today
