Thompson and Harris actually play different positions. No way Thompson is athletic or quick enough to play guard. Everyone knew he could shoot.

I don't understand this team but I like them

Still

Women>men
I don't think the women can beat the men. Hell, I would like to see the women play a quality complete game against someone decent.

They feel like a team full of roleplayers. Waiting for Coleman to be the guy to take charge late in games when needed.

You ever watch our team

It actually is a high quality product
Iowa has potential. We'll learn more tomorrow. Not impressed so far, so hopefully it's because our ladies aren't motivated to lift their game against bad competition.

What's the rationale in playing two games in Des Moines and one in Sioux City this year?

Are we officially declaring Iowa a HAWKEYE STATE!!! or what's the deal here

Pretty much. Also why not try to get games with a home crowd but it counts as a neutral site game and help the net rating.

If you're going to play in front of 7k people might as well do.it in front of a different part of your fan base.

These games are all run by third party companies that handle everything and then I assume pay both teams to play.

Are we going to play totally neutral site games in Virginia, Nebrantska, and Alabama next year too?

Correct. They’re basically replacing the neutral site holiday tournaments. He was trying to get more home and home deals with power schools but these were easier deals to get done. Hopefully they can get a couple in the future.

Harris didn't seem as joyful as the rest of the bench when Iowa was making their big second half run. He also seemed to be pressing a bit to make things happen when he came in for garbage time.

One of the misses at the rim was Cam getting caught between a dunk and a layup when he was wide open.

He's not shaped like a pear anymore. Might need a new nickname for him.
