**2025-2026 Iowa Basketball Season Thread**

I missed it what did he say

He was asked about his rotations and how many guys he normally plays. He said 6 or 7. He caught himself and couldn’t believe he said 6 7 and that he hates it

 

[WCFHawkeye]

I had to Google 6 7 meaning. Shit is all new to me.

Still don't understand what it means, but whatever. I'm just old.

This is the whole point. That's the joke.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I’ve managed to mostly avoid the whole 6-7 thing by being longer than that.

 

[douglasbader]

This is the whole point. That's the joke.

Yep, reminds me of back in high school @jabberjaw 's brother told a joke that is of the same humor...

A lizard (or some sort of animal) walks into a bar.
The bartender says "Hey, we don't serve your kind here!"
The lizard goes "What? My name's Steve!"

 

[Creed]

What ever happened to sideline reporter Maddie?

She went pro in something other than sports reporting.

I don't get it

 

[douglasbader]

I don't get it

Exactly, that's the point. There is nothing to get.

 

[KitKatApples]

Lizards are named Steve, Dave

 

[Nobody]

I had to witness this shit, so now you get to:

 

[brantshawks]

I was telling my wife how retarded these kids look and then I remembered at their age I talked just like Beavis and Butthead for like 2 years.

So perspective helps.

FIFY

 

[6deuce]

PWND!

 

[Geese]

What a great crowd

 

[nikolausp]

Banks was leading scorer. Big game with 16 points 10 rebounds.

For those that didnt watch, funny thing happened involving Banks.

Iowa got to 67 points and the crowd started going nuts. Banks was on the floor and started doing the 6-7 thing to the crowd egging them on while iowa was inbounding the ball. Clearly lost focus. Chicago state presses though, and when the ball came to Banks he fucking spazzed out and threw it directly to a chicago state defender for an easy layup. However howard or somebody fouled the guy on the layup and Banks swooped in for a violent tomahawk goal tend off the backboard for an and 1 for csu. Banks was immediately benched the rest of the game.

I was cracking up laughing. Iowa was up 35 or so at the time. Good fun.

6 7 !

 

[CamelTones]

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Gustones.

 

[Jim Tebow]

Unclear why they cut off before the volleyball spike style goal tend.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Robbed us of settles analysis

 

[L. Wade Childress]

He basically said “Banks was goofing around, forgot how to play basketball, and is now going to sit on the bench for a long time”

 

[OlePeep]

some Rahmbo fans, apparently

 

[Gushawk]

Rahm is my favourite professional golfer, due to his fire, ASU provenance and lack of a silver spooned spoiled pussy vibe that oh so many younger American golfers exude.

 

[Orestes]

Pretty difficult to get really good at gold without being a silver spooned pussy living the country club life.

For example, I always thought Davis Love III's name alone made him the archetype for all professional golfers.

You mean the guy that left for a hundred million dollar pay day

Most of my favourite golfers are Euros (Hovland, Lowry, Rahm Fleetwood). Almost none of those guys are the wierdo country clubbers we have here.

Lol that not a single black player or coach made it into the photo.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

A bunch of privileged white kids love pro golf. Shocking.

 

[OlePeep]

you guys said it, not me!

 

[The Dad]

“Hey Tavion, take a picture of us.”

 

[Thomas Wolsey]

I just hope they can all afford new clubs this year.

 

[Billy Butters]

“Hey Tavion, take a picture of us.”

"Hey Tavion, you want to go meet Jon Rahm?"

"I think I'll take a nap instead."

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Tavion, what are your top ten private courses in the central time zone?

 

[TurdBurgler]

Do we just not do game threads anymore? Ole Miss tomorrow at 8:30.

That's a stupid name, Ole Miss.

He would have a hundred million if he stayed on the PGA Tour

23 in Kenpom

15 in Offense and 55 in Defense

Not that they are a great rebounding team but there were a couple late that they got that I don’t think a Fran team would have gotten. Just from sheer toughness.

And to @FrodoTBaggin ‘s point, their toughness reflects the demeanor of their coach. They just play and don’t lose their cool with a fake tough guy act.

That was a very good, tough early season win. At the end of it, Stirtz reacted like a blue collar guy who just put in his 8 hours and was ready to punch out of work and head to the parking lot to drive home.

Contrast that with Fartman the last few years, he would have been celebrating and bouncing around like a goofball.

Good point. They expect to win, and it shows.

 

[Hawkstrat]

I don't know. There absolutely is something to the bitchiness that entered into Iowa basketball. Complaining about the brand of basketball, complaining about the food at the tournament, complaining to the officials while the ball is still in play. bohannon and Ivan destroying college basketball and sports in general. All legit.

But you can be serious about winning, and have a goofy demeanor.

[Hawkstrat]

Ok?

Do you have Doug on ignore?

 

[gohawkeyes811]

No, I don't. Your post is a weird response to his post, and makes no sense given the context.
