This guy has exceeded every expectation and showed tonight he is going to an enforcer for us the next couple years. Clearly bought in and willing to lay it on the line for the team.

I'm all in too. Love how he plays. Got skills too.
Too bad the officials took him out of the game with some just awful calls against him early. Little McCaffrey and Pemsl did their jobs in getting a T called on him and getting him out of his game.

MJ is an absolute stud. So happy he came home and is now wearing IOWA STATE across his chest.
Garza flopped something terrible on the one foul call.
His third foul right at the start of the second half was complete BS. Luckily we left him in and it didn't matter as much. The guy plays hard and really understands the game of basketball. I don't know about enforcer though because he lacks the raw athleticism that someone like Cook has.
Wish we would have had him on the floor with Lard at the same time. We gave up
WAY too many offensive rebounds and easy buckets for Cook. Small ball failed tonight.

He's very much like Hogue, can't wait for his version of the mid air ninja kick
The only problem I have with this comment is that I think we were unlucky to have left him in after the third foul. I think by leaving him in, Prohm hamstrung MJ and the team a bit. Jacobson was more tentative fearing the fourth foul, and Iowa took advantage. Love the kid, love Prohm, but didn't love the choice leaving him in.
I'd like to see them on-court together a little more often, at least until Solo is back into the flow. I can't remember when Lard first entered vs. Iowa, but it might've helped if he came in earlier and played a few overlapping minutes with Jacobson, then Jake could go to the bench for a short period. Lard could've had more time to get into flow, it would've changed dynamic a little, and possibly saved MJ a foul.
I am a big fan of the kid, but I think this rivalry meant a little more to him than the rest of the team. Got him a little out of sync with shot selection, and got him pressing more than he usually does.
Michael Jacobson is already a Cyclone to the ****ing core. Love it!
When healthy I believe Young will be the guy when we switch to a big lineup.
Jacobson and Lard bring a different type of post scorer. While Young gives you a physical post defender. Would of been nice to have him last night on ol crazy eyes. Way too many easy put backs.

I love the way he plays. Also, I get why they gave him a T with the shoving, but that was all on Iowa. He was walking away when McAffrey got in his face, and then obviously Pemsl had to try to insert himself. Those two have earned their way onto my inaugural All-Fake Tough Guy team. They would have wanted no part of Mike.
