I'm skeptical of Dolph's claim that second three on the video was from "35 feet". That's about the distance of Clark's 3 the other night.

Thought the same thing when I heard it. Prob not even 25 feet.

 

[Talkin' Goat]

I’m glad Jordan had a good game. I hope it continues.

That’s all I have to say about that.

JUST WAIT UNTIL PETRAS THROWS FOR 300 YARDS AND 5 TDS. YOU CAN ALL STFU THEN

i have never given out a rainbow - but this post is about as close as you can get.

Has Iowa ever had two players score 30+ in the same game before tonight?

1976.

 

[BBK]

1976.

Okay guys, one more thing, this summer when you're being inundated with all this American bicentennial Fourth Of July brouhaha, don't forget what you're celebrating, and that's the fact that a bunch of slave-owning, aristocratic, white males didn't want to pay their taxes.

 

[hawkeyealum]

1976.

Details please

 

[Fletch]

Details please

Nope.

Bohannon has Iowa-record 10 3s, Hawkeyes roll 110-87

COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) — Jordan bohannon made a school-record 10 3-pointers in scoring all 30 of his points, Keegan Murray also had 30 points and Iowa routed Maryland 110-87 on Thursday night.

apnews.com

Murray, one of 30 players named Thursday to the midseason list for the Naismith Trophy player of the year, was 12-of-14 shooting and became part of the first Big Ten duo to have one player make 10 3s and another score 30 points in the same game. And it is the first time Iowa had two 30-point scorers in a single game since 1976.

 

[nikolausp]

In the last 6 years I've been to the following Iowa athletic events:

Iowa v Maryland this fall in football (51-14)
Iowa v Penn St this fall in football (23-20)
Iowa v Maryland tonight (Jbo alot - MD not)

(Extend it to 7 years and it includes the rose bowl, so we can stick with 6 years).

You can count that 7th year, and it still filters out Jan 1, 2015. What games does that 7th year include?

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Not saying the move isn't a legit good one, after a decent game Sunday and then just absolutely going off tonight, but JBo literally owns the Xfinity Center - like they should change the name on the court to Jordan bohannon Court. Need to look up the exact numbers, but I think he ended his career shooting something like 29-45 from three there. 65% as a visiting player, while playing 3 or 4 games. Insane.

well actually Live Nation owns the xfinity center, and they are building a new venue in Waukee, Iowa, where Payton Sandfort, who will finish his career with a higher career 3pt% than Jordan bohannon, went to high school and never once used this many commas in a sentence.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Why don’t they do that every game?

i am no aeronautical engineer but they should make the entire plane out of Jordan Bohannons

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Connor-born on 3rd, convinced he hit a triple

Born on 3rd. Hits for cycle.

 

[nikolausp]

Patrick got gritty tonight and tacked on 1 more personal foul!

 

[Geese]

Patrick got gritty tonight and tacked on 1 more personal foul!

Can't wait for the next game when him or his brother will inevitably get super hurt. So bad in fact they'll be writhing around in agony leaving some to wonder if they'll ever be able to play again. Don't worry though they'll be back on the court in just a few short minutes.

Austin Fucking Ash with 3 points less than Connor on the season despite half the games played and a third of the average minutes in those games

Some idiot (assuming you] posted this on twitter and actually mentioned Connor in the tweet.

Are you saying Ash is better than Connor McCaffery and Caitlin Clark?

Actually no, I DMOFR. Someone probably took my post and tweeted it

Hmmmm… then maybe you did tweet it.

Just fucking stop. Your shtick is so boring and dull.

Get pissed.

 

[FrodoTBaggin]

I'm much more optimistic about Keegan's recent play. Historically, slightly more sustainable. Good game for Jordan though.

The fucker is getting off the floor quickly and with ease.

 

[Fletch]

I, too, think a future lottery pick will be more productive than our geriatric point guard (that cant guard a corpse) moving forward.

 

[FrodoTBaggin]

Oh Feltch. You know what I meant. You've played at a high level. Higher than me in fact.

 

[kenos]

I'm cautiously optimistic about JBo back at the point.

Here's your paradox -- although speed and quickness are important for point guards, JBo's limited athleticism and small size are less of an impediment to getting his shot off at the point than they are at the 2.

If he can get 10-12 points a game at the point and be more of a threat from outside, then the starters have that reliable 2nd/3rd option. He's a defensive liability anywhere, but at the 1 he at least has more of a chance to express his primary talent.

And it is the first time Iowa had two 30-point scorers in a single game since 1976.

That was the Jan 31 game at Crisler Arena against Johnny Orr's eventual Final Four team. Hawks lost a shootout 104-95 with Sky King putting down 36 points & Scotty Thompson adding 30. This was Indiana's unbeaten national championship season. The Hawks put in some good efforts all year and managed a 9-9 5th place finish in the Big Ten. They had probably 3 scoring threats that year: King, Thompson & Dan Frost all with ppg in the teens for the year.

 

[Fletch]

Sure thing, Frodumb.

 

[Stu Beagle]

Maybe the most impressive thing about Frans tenure here is he’s almost always had one of the best players in the conference every year on the roster.

 

[WCFHawkeye]

No shit. @26.2 should be the only one allowed to start game threads now.

Well, I retract my statement. Maybe the key factor is that @douglasbader did not start the game thread.

he can't always sign it, but there's no doubt he has an eye for talent

 

[Creed]

He should fill the whole team with guys like that.

Change ‘had’ to ‘developed’.

Only Fran can win by 20+ yet still almost give up 90

Why did you wait so long to start posting?

 

[CleteyColgate]

Let's go

 

[crashdavis]

Why did you wait so long to start posting?

Had no interest in posting. Read to gauge the temperature of other fans. Did it match what I was thinking after a game?
Sometimes did. Sometimes didn't. Sometimes helped moderate my take. Sometimes fueled it.
Lots of insight. Lots of bullshit. Mostly hilarious & a whole lot of "wtf is wrong with you?".

No big change this week - I had just read what Billy Taylor had to say about The Key's minutes vs Minnesota - what the hell, might as well share.
There you go. Ain't no big thang. This might be it or maybe will throw something out once in a while. Already this is tl/dr.

They were up > 30 when Ash started playing with 6:30 left.

 

[6deuce]

They were up > 30 when Ash started playing with 6:30 left.

Also when you're scoring that quickly it's almost impossible for the other team not to score some points. They could've won by 40+ if they didn't pull all the regular players.
