*** Official Ole Miss vs #15 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

Goodnight, gang. I can’t watch this one anymore. Team is just doing everything completely wrong and not making adjustments. Hopefully next season goes better because this sucks.

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

Playing with zero pride. How did TJ not have these guys prepared at all?

TJ can only do so much. At the end of the day the kiddos have to go out there and play and play their asses off. TJ can scream and yell and motivate all he wants but he’s not on the court.

Something went awry with this team along the way. The chemistry hasn't looked seemed right for awhile. Something happened, or changed during the course of the season. It could have been any number of things, but something is rotten in Denmark.

Maybe since it usually starts stinking about the same exact time each year, either we have the wrong fish or we aren't preparing them correctly.

A 60 foot heave at Arizona was the beginning of the end for this squad.

Quit blaming the season on one shot. If that killed the season, then these players are the weakest minded players to ever play the game.

Yes, I've seen comparisons on this board that Jefferson is like Royce White and Momcilovich is like Georges Niang.

Niang and White were NBA draft picks and absolute CLOSERS in college. Momcilovich and Jefferson are nice big 12 players and that is it.

Momcilovich played as tough on D as caitlin clark tonight.

Fans tend to over evaluate their current players. White and Niang both better dribblers and players overall for sure.

Momcilovic flashes big time potential but has too many games where he doesn't make big impact.

Jefferson is very talented, great passer. Not sure he has good enough handles and does not shoot 3s well enough to play a Niang role in nba

Whenever Jefferson turns his back, the scouting report has to be to attack him from blindside

Agreed because he has zero awareness

You don’t make a Final Four because you’re “lucky”. VCU had to beat number one seed Kansas to make it.

Yeah, but you also don't make 5 Sweet 16's in 15 years because you are lucky either.

 

[GoSTATE71]

Cut it to 7 coming out of the half and then we just gave up, just makes no sense.

 

[Walden4Prez]

Heise might be our best player

He has been one of the best down the stretch. Doing more with much less.

 

[Final42b]

Well then stop watching and tune in when that happens.

I’d never see another game again then

 

[Acylum]

Beard has outscouted and has coached circles around us. I really dislike the guy but he’s put on a coaching clinic against us.

We probably have to realize we’re not going to out-coach anybody.

 

[CentexCyclone]

Miss taking a page out of Cyclone's book with aggressive traps in the corner.

 

[CyGuy5]

It’s hard sometimes to be a Cyclone but it never sucks

I dunno man, it sucked pretty hard sitting in Jerryworld watching Cam Skattebo take our souls for 60 minutes. Comparable feeling to this game actually

 

[FarminCy]

This game is highlighting how horrible of depth ISU currently has. I hope Blum is correct that it will be an active portal season as it’s time to cut some guys loose that will never contribute.

 

[JP4CY]

Why would it be at this point lol I get the pride argument, but this isn’t 2010. These kids don’t give a **** about that **** anymore. It is what it is. It’s the NIL money era. There is no pride anymore in your university.

You don't think Tamin has pride for Iowa State?

 

[cyatheart]

Beard really giving our staff a lesson here.

 

[Cychl82]

Curt has been really lazy on defense

 

[jaj040]

Really wish the game started on time so it would be over by now.

 

[Drew0311]

I’m retiring for the year. Pretty solid year minus injuries and this game but all I’m doing now is yelling at stuff and it’s no longer healthy for me to participate in this game

 

[awd4cy]

We have 5 assists...

That’s back to the Prohm days.
