Yeah Herb is more strategic and will only hate the player everyone likes.

That's more fair actually. My apologies Herbie, you only shit on the players everyone likes.

You should follow McKenna's team this year....they will likely make their state tournament so you can see and imagine what that would be like.

How exactly have I shit on MW? By sharing a link to her game?

 

[douglasbader]

As my man @AZmessDAWG points out, it wasn't sharing a link to her game, it was oddly and needlessly sharing the score to subtly point out that her team was getting beat bad early.

Not to mention the subtle "prized" at the start of the sentence.

I was sharing the current time/score, which seems relevant.

I think most people expected them to lose as they were playing the #1 team in the country, best player in the '27 class, and MW on a mins restriction, so the score would not be a surprise to anyone.

 

[douglasbader]

Exactly!! SO WHY POST IT IF IT ISN'T A SURPRISE TO ANYONE?????????

 

[douglasbader]

WHY THE TWO ORDERS, COL. JESSUP?????????????

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Yep.

 

[douglasbader]

Calm down @Herbie2 , we need to cum together and focus, have a game to win today. Go Hawks!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Herbie2]

This should be an easy win today...Iowa should be as close to full strength as they have been in some time and while these teams have had some good battles in recent years, Iowa is clearly the better team this year.

 

[douglasbader]

Fuck yea, there we go!! Hawks should beat them down, Heiden needs to learn to stay out of foul trouble for once.

 

[Herbie2]

She will feast next year with a 4 like MW who can unclog the lane.

 

[Herbie2]

ISU loses for the 3rd straight game.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Woof

 

[RiotFan]

Women start as bad as the Men.

 

[Herbie2]

Women start as bad as the Men.

IU is 0-5 in conference play. This is worse.

 

[RiotFan]

IU is 0-5 in conference play. This is worse.

True.

Started the same way in their last game. They seem to go as Heiden goes.

 

[RiotFan]

It would be nice for Deal to step up. Stremlow is non-existent. She’s playing the Stirtz role.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Heiden must be sick

 

[Herbie2]

Hannah has had influenza for 4 years.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Houston > Stuelke

 

[RiotFan]

Houston > Stuelke

Yep.

 

[RiotFan]

So bad.

 

[Herbie2]

Houston > Stuelke

Outside of her taking some bad 3s, she has done a great job all season of playing completely within her skillset.

 

[CurdMan]

Lmao at that shot from chit chat. That’s a good example of why I just can’t get invested in wbb

It was a terrible shot, but not sure what that has to do with WBB. I saw about 5 of those from Stirtz alone at the Men’s game today.

 

[CurdMan]

It’s a complete lack of basketball IQ/awareness. You saw Stirtz take bad shots, you don’t see guys launching when the shot clock is off and 15 seconds on the clock

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Heiden has to be sick. And I’m sorry but Stuelke not being a threat from the elbow or in the post kills Jan’s ability to run triangle.

Oh fuck off with this.

 

[CurdMan]

Fine, it’s an unfair exaggeration. It just bugs the hell out of me

MW is the perfect player for that role. She can't get here soon enough.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

If deal could learn how to play basketball soon that would be great

 

[AZmessDAWG]

They need to start on the left side of the court, that way Stuelke can flash elbow and can drive right.

 

[6deuce]

Stuelke. Lol

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Never in doubt

 

[CamelTones]

The last minute of women’s game is worse than when the men reviewed every OOB call. The timeouts to advance the ball just drag this shit out.

 

[nolookpass]

Kylie was the Joe Toussaint.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Kylie was the Joe Toussaint.

As much as I hate on her her defense was “key” in the 2nd half.

 

[douglasbader]

Seems like Iowa Women either flipped a recruit or got a big new one....

 

[Stomper15]

2027 guard from Wisconsin per Twitter

 

[Mysterio]

2027 jada seubert is the rumor.

also learned today theyre recruiting cam manyawu's little sister

 

[KitKatApples]

Womanyawu?

 

[Lil Scamp]

It's Seubert over Michigan, Iowa State, Nebrantska and tcu not bad

 

[L. Wade Childress]

She plays for AIA and is really good

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I actually have no idea if either of those things are true.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

I won't have an opinion until I know why specifically @Herbie2 hates her

 

[Mysterio]

she looks like an athlete

 

[Mysterio]

funny to see aaliyah guyton not playing anymore at illinois than she did at iowa last year

 

[Stu Beagle]

Is her dad being a bitch about it again?

 

[KitKatApples]

Probably
