No, if we're thinking of the same play that one happened in the first half, this one was in the 2nd. Feels good though that Tyrese had a number of good steals though and we're having a hard time figuring out which impressive one we're talking about.

Here's part of the play in question. Sadly the highlights cut off a bit of it but it should at least give you an idea of where to look on a replay or something

20 wins might give us the all-time record for win improvement from one season to the next. The current record is +17.5. I say might because I'm not sure how they calculate additional games played.
6 men's college basketball records that could be broken (or tied) during the 2021-22 season
There are several men's basketball records that could fall this season.www.ncaa.com
The team with the record had 17 more wins with one fewer game played, so they got a bonus of a half game improvement.
ISU going from 15-15 to 32-5 in 1999-2000 would be counted as a +14.5 turnaround. 17 more wins with a deduction of 2.5 for 5 additional games played.
We are guaranteed 32 games this year after going 2-22 a year ago. So, we would have to go 24-8 to break the record (up 22 wins but a deduction of 4 for the 8 additional games). The article mentions Kentucky is likely to take the record after an abysmal year in 2020-21 and potential for 30+ wins this yeat
I think I saw some UNI/Kyle Green inspired sets on offense that got us some good 3 point looks. That was cool.
Thanks for the clip. Yep, that's the play I was thinking -- I hadn't noticed the lead-up when I saw it live ... and I watched some of 2nd half replay earlier today, and missed it then, too.
Just noticed this part, so maybe the 1st-half play is what I was thinking, not the one you posted (I didn't review any of 1st half on replay).
That's right and pretty sure he could use a covid year to play 2 more after this year. That would make him on course to match jorbo
That’s incredible and sad. 2 Thanksgivings ago. Caleb Grill’s fist go around. I was just Looking at the pics earlier today. Here’s the intro to that game.
That really puts into perspective how amazing this season has been so far.
Only question I have and I'm sure I'll get some colorful responses, but would Prohm have done ok this year with Hunter in the fold? Or have Tj and his staff come in and revamped the culture and x's and o's way above and beyond what Prohm was capable?
Obviously no way to ever truly know but I think looking at the roster is your answer. Basically the entire roster was turned over.
The guys TJ brought in are light years better than anyone Prohm recruited.
I’m not sure how things got away from Prohm to badly, but it’s pretty clear to me now that he didn’t know what he was doing.
First win over a ranked opponent for the last five Cyclone head coaches --
Morgan = first season on January 31 against #15 Kansas in Hilton
McDermott = fourth season (!!!) on March 6 against #5 Kansas State in Manhattan
Hoiberg = second season on January 28 against #5 Kansas in Hilton
Prohm = first season on December 22 against #22 Cincinnati in Cincinnati
Otzelberger = first season on November 24 against #25 Xavier in New York
So TJ beat his first ranked team five games into Iowa State tenure. This accomplishment was only accomplished by Hoiberg in his second season and McDermott took almost four full seasons.
Long way to go yet, but this beginning feels special.

I'll assume you're talking about recently?
Hali, THT, Wiggs etc. were great recruits.
And Hunter was a Prohm recruit iirc. Credit to TJ for getting him to stay.
Imo the way they're playing together is better than Prohm or Hoiberg this early in the year with exception to the Kane team that had good chemistry early.
Yah sorry, I was thinking more about building a roster. Prohm could definitely recruit elite guards. His problem seemed to be in putting the right guys around them.
Prohm was a bad player coach and it all started in his first year with McKay. Almost feel bad for him because he lost his first team and was sort of handcuffed and couldn’t do much about it
