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

[Herbie2]

Fran continues his streak of .500 or better!

Not necessarily.

 

[Uli Kunkel]

37-80 conference record seems... bad

 

[douglasbader]

I laughed pretty hard at this...

 

[L. Wade Childress]

If D somehow keep Dix, Pryce, and Cooper around, we should be able to at least not embarrass ourselves assuming we hit the portal for a couple point guards and a rebounder.

 

[The Dad]

Nice little Fred Fade for Nebrantska. Ya hate to see it.

 

[hawkeyealum]

Somehow these two combined for half of Iowa's total rebounds

Freeman hasnt played since 1/27 and is still 2nd on the team in total rebounds behind peyton

 

[HiawathaHawk]

5 straight losses, 6 out of 7 to finish the year. 6 seniors in the rotation. They have to be getting a little restless. They have great crowds and decent NIL.

 

[HiawathaHawk]

Wednesday at 5:30 vs. Ohio State.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

AM? Hopefully.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Lost in the disaster of this season was I forgot how fucking awesome every sports day is starting this weekend for the foreseeable future.

Just a couple of dudes who wanna play for the fun of the game

 

[Russell Ziske]

AM? Hopefully.

Yes, be sure to set your alarm clock

 

[CurdMan]

Wednesday at 5:30 vs. Ohio State.

Technically 25 minutes after the first game, which starts at 2:30. So likely closer to 5:00

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Hire McCollum now.

 

[WCFHawkeye]

Hire McCollum now.

Frans not getting fired, yet. He still has 11 games to play this season.

 

[Fletch]

Hire McCollum now.

He’s 476,589-25 since like 2016.

Do it Beth

 

[jabberjaw]

I remember what happened to the last guy who cashed in after one good season at Drake.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Totally the same.

 

[jabberjaw]

Totally the same.

Agreed

 

[HiawathaHawk]

Technically 25 minutes after the first game, which starts at 2:30. So likely closer to 5:00

BTN showed game time as 4:00 eastern for the first game.

 

[maxinquaye]

I laughed pretty hard at this...

Keep them in your farts forever!

 

[Thomas Wolsey]

he said thanks and we could talk at Easter

Go Bucks!

 

[Creed]

BTN showed game time as 4:00 eastern for the first game.

We’re number 1(5)!

 

[Soda Popinski]

He was a huge bitch again today vs Michigan.

 

[eclone]

I laughed pretty hard at this...

Hang the banner

That’s pretend, but do you know what’s not? A fucking wall of framed apology letters.

 

[HerkyHopeful]

After what we've seen this year, I'm not so sure Freeman made this team any better. He gets his points and rebounds, but really ruined offensive flow and made little impact on D

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

This is the fruitest thing I’ve seen sinhobbits hugging

 

[Soda Popinski]

Payton is a great kid.

 

[Bonner]

After what we've seen this year, I'm not so sure Freeman made this team any better. He gets his points and rebounds, but really ruined offensive flow and made little impact on D

It seemed from the start of the year Freeman had zero drive to get better, it’s probably good he’s done at Iowa.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Payton is a great kid.

fartman*

 

[Hawk_Kegmasters]

When Freeman showed up the first few games against the East Texas A&Ms of the world and couldn’t dunk anymore despite being 6’10”, I took that as a very bad sign.

 

[KitKatApples]

He seems to be on his way to pissing away a decent college career

 

[The Dad]

This is the fruitest thing I’ve seen sinhobbits hugging

 

[KitKatApples]

God damn it

 

[Uli Kunkel]

Love these vague and pointless posts all so he can later pretend he had a scoop.

 

[tallperson54]

What the heck does that tweet even mean?

 

[Hawk&Balls]

He wants the national media to wait until sunday to break any news that the local media then has to report on

 

[Geese]

What the heck does that tweet even mean?

He knows something we don't

 

[Hawk24]

What the heck does that tweet even mean?

It's a running joke...it seems like he's always out of the state when big news breaks. From the Tweet, it sounds like he'll be out of state starting Sunday morning so hopes nothing breaks before then so the streak can continue.

 

[Verbal]

Man who tweets for a living unable to work when crossing state lines

Time zones...amirite!!!

Oh fuck. It's happening.

They’re also really bad at scanning tickets apparently.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

There’s no way. Carver LOOKS empty, and attendance sucks, but there’s no way the number is that low.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

I don't know what the number is but it absolutely is lower than people think

 

[HiawathaHawk]

Iowa’s tickets scanned data comes with somewhat of a caveat. Iowa women’s basketball had 13,446 tickets scanned against USC — 89.7 percent of the arena’s capacity — which may seem low considering the full appearance of the seating bowl and sky-high resale prices

That is down 9.6 percent from the 10,779 tickets scanned per game in 2023-24 — Caitlin Clark’s final season with the Hawkeyes.

Iowa’s 2024-25 average rises to 10,071 tickets scanned per game when excluding the Oct. 30 exhibition against Missouri Western. That was the only time in which Carver-Hawkeye Arena was less than half-full for a women’s basketball game in 2024-25.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I don't know what the number is but it absolutely is lower than people think

there is absolutely no chance that 100 employees each of whom need assistance to take a piss are accurately scanning all the tickets at the gates.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

That's also the season ticket fanbase
