This weekend was much better than last weekend.
I need to see us against Iowa and a couple B12 teams before I make any further predictions for March, but I hope you're right.
So over the past few games I have noticed something and was wondering if I am just imagining it or it is a real thing...can Beverly barely jump? Has anyone else noticed he gets like 3 inches off the ground on layups or rebounds? Maybe I've just noticed the bad jumps I don't know.
Friendly bit of news from Chris Williams:

Simeon always seemed like a great teammate. Definitely wish him the best.
I honestly think that there is at the very least a vocal minority of Cyclone fans who will never give CSP a fair chance, mainly because he isn't CFH, and God forbid that anyone who isn't CFH be our basketball coach (even though he left of his own free will). It's disappointing, but also human/fan nature, I suppose.
As to the game, I didn't like the tense moments towards the end, but I do think going through that bit of adversity is good for the team in the long run. Offensively, we just got cold there for a few minutes, and it seemed like there was some "hero ball" plays that resulted in some quick, forced shots.
I think BSU was also jumping screens and making ball movement trickier. Situational stuff is hard for a young and inexperienced team.
Funny thing is last year NWB was *this* close to being a solid finisher at the basket, and now it's all he does. When ISU needed a bucket tonight he was one who went in and got one. 11 assists tonight was also very Monte-esque. I hardly noticed it was happening.
Its a bummer it didn't work out for him here, but he was the teams biggest cheerleader on the bench the last 2 seasons. At least he has a ring from the Big 12 Tourney and got to experience a Sweet 16.
Same as it always was ... always nerve racking but always know that it is coming ... even with our best teams in last few years vs good, bad, or mdiocre teams ... doesn't matter. Reasons include: 1) it's a game of runs; 2) our top line players fatigue, and our depth isn't there to sustain the effort. Combination of factors ... doesn't neccessarily mean bad coaching.

Which is freakin' nuts considering in addition to a couple of good seasons, Prohm is one of the most likeable guys in the business.
Through 5 games, these are the averages for NWB
15.6 PPG
6.2 APG
7.6 RPG
This also includes the first 2 games before he took over as the primary PG. His stats in the past 3 games where he's been the primary PG
17.6 PPG
8.6 APG
9.3 RPG
Not too shabby

Incredible that we not only found our PG, but he's the best player on the team. I deserve some crow after the first couple of games. I think I said something along the lines of "Babb isn't going to be the guy we want him to be." He's a stud.
Steve Prohm - No Monte what to do at the PG position.
