Looked like Tamin jammed his fingers on that one play. Also, what was Otz and the ref laughing about on that timeout in the first half? I wondered if Dixon told the ref about ISU stealing plays, and the ref and Otz were laughing at this.
That’s what I was thinking. When he hurt his shoulder before, he grabbed his upper arm but here it looked like he grabbed his hand.

Stole TCU’s gameplan and sent to TJ. Would have never guessed they wanted to box out and not give up layups. I get why Tang was mad now after this invaluable insight I gathered today.

They were laughing apt how much Jamie Dixon looks like the actor that played Reg in The Great Outdoors with John Candy and Dan Akroyd. He had the skunk hairdo.

I think my posts calling you a loser are probably only like .0001% of my posts considering there's like 60k of them. It just seems like a lot lately because you complain more when we win, and we're winning a lot.
Why not block/ignore a poster if you don’t like their posts? Just more fun to be a doucher I guess? Like, who cares if he has complaints/concerns? Is it really not allowed if we win? Debate them. Pretty sure we’re all big Cyclone fans here…

Anyway, good win! Got a bit nervous giving up yet another big 2nd half run but credit to the guys for responding well (to each TCU run). CuJo might be my favorite player; just love his demeanor on the court. Always calm, always smooth.

It’s crazy how physical we are! Couldn’t be more impressed with the defensive toughness TJ has instilled with this group (even if I still worry about the wide open skip 3 after an ineffective double team). I still continue to be far more impressed by our defense than offense.

Things get real now; I’m personally skeptical we are actually a top 10 team but it’s going to be hard to say otherwise given the trajectory we are on. LFG!

Lastly - Milan - my goodness the kid is good. Not a great offensive day for him but his defense and toughness overall have made extraordinary strides in the last 8 weeks. He doesn’t play like a freshman at all.

ZRF thinking he makes decisions arbitrarily.

He'd already told his staff and just needed to tell someone else.

Playing Bob at the end when a team is scrambling and shooting 3s isn't the best decision and certainly not Bob's greatest asset.

I wasn't able to watch some of the first but thought TJ handled things better than he has. The one exception is I thought he should have called a timeout to pull Tamin sooner but he did pull him at the dead ball.

I dont see you contribute much other than dumb all of my posts (regardless of what's said) or ***** about them. Why don't you post some of your genius takes. Would love to read them!
So you miss part and still think you’re a coach?

Because I don’t want to. If he’s a cyclone fan he’s a kind I don’t want to be, calling players incompetent and terrible.

20 assists on 24 made FGs is excellent, as was the FT and 3 point shooting.

Tamin wincing and holding his arm late in the game is worrisome.
It appeared as though he hurt his shoulder on a reach-in near the end. You could immediately see it hurt him. I believe it was his fourth foul.
I said shi? To the TV.

So THAT'S why we struggle with layups. Very interesting.

Back from Ames and had a GREAT time!

I go to one conference game (+ interesting OOC games) a year @ Hilton, and I chose a good day!

5-0 now under TJ with wins @ Creighton (2021) and vs. Oklahoma (2022), St.John's (2022), Kansas (2023) and TCU (2024) @ Hilton.

The defense is REAL and NASTY.

Had a laugh when Pav hit his three right off the bench. FWIW, I saw him play last year for Wofford @ Drake.

Had a Clone Cone.

Saw Cy!

Had a tear in my eye when they showed the Purdy commercial and highlights.

Hilton is my Happy Place.

Let's Go State!
