Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

Fran was a ******* clown in the ISU game too, still doing the full court press down 20 in the last minute of the game.
You hit 17 of 18 free throws
They hit 10 of 22 free throws
Usually that kind of showing means the team that hit 95% won the game. Nope. The team that shot 45% from the line won. By ten. On the road.

You can't make this stuff up. Their own fans have to be sick of this ****
I have zero respect for how Fran coaches his guys to just dribble
Into defenders with zero purpose in hopes of tallying up fouls. It’s such sh!tty basketball and I can’t believe how often they are rewarded for it.

It's like huggy ball but more offensive minded. Force the ref to blow the whistle
I find it funny that Patrick is a college basketball player and the coaches son and he still dribbles with his head down.
I honestly thought it would be a close game with Iowa losing but being there until the end. Wasn't surprised to see them make a run...they do that every game.
But, as we've discussed at length, they again had a chance to get a huge win...at home...against a top 6 team. And they sh!t the bed...again.
They have what, four Q1 opportunities left? They aren't beating Illinois or Ohio State on the road. Road games at Maryland and Michigan and Penn State will be easier but no cake walk...let's be optimistic and say they go 2-1 with those three. They won't beat Michigan State at home but will win the rest (MN, NEB, UM, NW).
If my math is correct, that gets them to 20-10 (and again I am being pretty effing optimistic)...with still ZERO Q1 wins.
Does a team that goes 20-10 with a 10-10 league mark but no Q1 wins get in? They probably do, but they probably shouldn't.

They don't have a Quad 1 win...
They are gonna have to beat Mich st at home or @Ohio state...I belive that is it for Quad 1 opportunities for Iowa and at same time not lose to like Nebraska..
This can't be tonight's game...the place looks like it's full.
It's crazy how Iowa's minutes get handed out, how does JorBo get 30 minutes? I'm guessing they don't think Kris Murray can guard 2's so they need another guard starting but seems like Ulis or Perkins can give you the 6 points, 2 boards, 1 assist and 3 turnovers that Jorbo brings while also giving you a bit more athleticism. Those two aren't amazing but Jorbo got as many minutes as they did combined and their box score line looks about the same as his.
Also end the season at Illinois. So home against MSU, on the road at OSU and ILL and that might be it? I was thinking there were four but maybe it's three. Gulp.
Which is why I loved that Iowa State purposefully got a shot clock violation at the end of the game. We don't even care that this counts as a turnover. We don't need the points. This game was over a long time ago.
