We need Lindell to stay in attack mode, it was a thing of beauty when he was getting in the lane in the first half. He was either getting fouled or passing out for open looks.

THT came up big with some of his takes to the basket. His shooting will come around. We need him.
Final 4?? Dont you think you are selling us short?
Speaking of bad coaching moves, how bout that timeout by Beard after tech tied it???
I thought I heard the announcers say Johnnie had the most wins against top 10 teams?
This. Our best half court offense comes when we can drive and kick it outside.
I was so frustrated we weren't taking it to the Tin vs KU when Lawson picked up an early 4th. We settle for way too many long 2s instead of leveraging our depth to initiate contact and risking the offensive foul to try for a lay up or a kick out to the open shooter.
There were A LOT of opportunities in his heyday. I’m betting most if not all were at Hilton
Loved what Conditt gave us tonight! Without a healthy Lard and Young, he gave us some GREAT minutes tonight - excited for the future of this young man!!
I had to be away from TV from late in the first half until about a minute into the 2nd. I think it was maybe tied when I left, then ISU was ahead by, like, 6 --- what good things did I miss?
I think teams like KU, Iowa St, and sometimes K St, can consider a loss at home, especially if it's not the top team, a bad loss. 15,000 fans is a huge advantage that needs to be exploited.
He passed the ball really well tonight including some great downcourt / outlet passes after defensive rebounds.
We REALLY could use that ol' shooting touch coming back. Hopefully, he gets it back soon.
They showed that Steve has the third most wins against Top 10. And he's only had a few seasons.
I'm a huge fan of Steve, I love that he disciplines with love and uncompromising. When his guys get injured he doesn't rush them back just for the wins. He has a great knack of developing chemistry. That said, you can see in-game coaching is still a work in progress.
He is a young coach, and his philosophy seems to be working on building a culture where the players should be accountable leaders. Unfortunately he doesn't have the veteran guys to do that right now. Babb is the only guy playing that has been in this program more than 2 years right?
I think with the way he recruits and leads the program he will stabilize ISU to be a top team year in and year out.

To think that Lindell is still far from playing like himself yet, THT hasn't been shooting well at all, and Lard hasn't been playing at all.
We're far from being at our best yet. If LW can get back to being comfortable again, THT can start hitting his shots, and we can get Lard back.... watch out!
need him at the rim...attacking and in defense. Leave the outside shooting to Shayock, Babb, Haliburton.
