Don’t underestimate how good we are... we should have beat KU at Allen fieldhouse. We controled almost that whole game.
Yep, that loss hurts just for that fact we were the better team and outplayed them minus that 2nd half run. I’m excited though because I think we’re going to go on a pretty good winning streak the next couple weeks.

This is fun right now but I just want to get to the spot where it's pretty much guaranteed that ISU is 'in' and then really enjoy everything else after that.

If I was a ref... I would be so fricking sick of the awkward position WVU basketball constantly puts me in during their games and would eventually put my foot down, call all the fouls, and not enable their brand of foulball to continue. Their style is everything the NCAA is trying to remove from the game.

Also, let’s move the charge circle out another 3 feet. So many players are getting undercut at its current spot. And the ‘drawing’ the charge is the worst thing about basketball. It’s such a subjective call that has huge momuntem swings and is frequently incorrectly called.

Missed most of the game - had to unfreeze a frozen pipe by using the heating cable method. After prepping the pipe, I plugged the heating cable in and sat down to watch the game. We were up 10 (61-51) and proceeded to extend the lead significantly and, at about the same time, I heard the hot water running in the tub!! Despite the bitter cold evening - two very good "victories" tonight, PTL!

I'd have a beer with him.

Wasn't there a story of someone seeing him once at a bar and he was basically just doing stand up?
I would like to be in the post game press conference to hear what Randy P asks him, if he has the nerve

Nice, workman like effort for the win tonight. We did the little things, shot well from the free throw line, and won the rebound battle 28 to 22.

In sports, little things mean a lot, and tonight ISU did the little things. On to Texas this Saturday.

Anyone else think Bob's days at WVU are numbered? Ol Dana rode on and I wouldn't be surprised to see Bob bolt too.

He's not going to get fired anytime soon, and i dont see him leaving. Dude was born in morgantown, played in morgantown, has coached in morgantown, and will die in morgantown.

Fred had NBA aspirations, which he made clear from the start. If you were surprised by him leaving for the NBA you weren't paying attention.

Huggins has made no such indication.

Let's wait until we beat them at home before we call them horrible. They have been better their and will have more guys available, most likely.
I agree about waiting, but they did lose to a bad OSU team at home and Baylor by double digits. We don’t play them there till March, we will see if they have given up by then.
