Iowa State wrapped up their exhibition season with an 80-72 win over Northwestern. Below, you can watch Jake Brend's postgame report on how the Cyclones got back to playing their brand of basketball.

 
I feel like this team has a ton of "potential"... it will be all about if they can ever realize it.

Lot of "ifs"... but...

-if Tamin can come back and be the Tamin we all know...

-if Milan can start being the player we think he can... or even 80% of what we thought he can be...

-if Heise can be a positive factor like he was today...

and..

-if one big man asserts himself as the starter...

I think this team could be very special.

I think Nelson is definitely a playmaker that can create and get to the rim... and Toure is a stud in the making folks... he's for real. I think Batemon might be a year away.... but if he starts finding himself and can be a contributor... then really watch out.
