Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

[GTO]

Iowa is actually ahead by 12. ORU turning the ball over left and right. Nunge on fire early. The thing that kills me is how someone as slow on the block as Garza is can get so many calls that go his way. He literally got stuffed, grabbed the ball back and pushed the ball into the defender & lost it on the way up - ORU grabs the loose ball, but the ref calls a 2 SHOT FOUL! Unfreekin' believable!

Iowa has shot 13 free throws to ORU's 5.

I know it is Iowa's strategy & they concentrate a lot on crashing into bodies underneath the basket to goad the ref into calling a foul - but, on the opposite end, there were a few times where Iowa's defensive duo or trio were literally hanging all over the ORU player and nothing was called - I guess defensive positioning means very little at CHA - it's all about body checking someone (ala PencilHead).

@dexterhawk, I'd love to get your opinion on this.

I’m going with “not cute”

What have they done in HS?

Is Luka 1st round or 2nd round talent?

Lottery. But only if he doesn’t touch the brows.

I cancelled my cable because they kept trying to give me BTN as part of the package.

Kind of odd.

Looking at what Moss did tonight at Kansas is not going to help things in Iowa City

Well this is vague

Good to see Fran right the ship tonight. Huge win for Hoks. They can put DePaul behind them and get ready to make a statement.

My guess is Fran will use this to bump his contract up a notch. Barta won't be able to afford him after they woodshed TTech.

I'm guessing they'll go for a medical redshirt? Weird considering how much Fran hyped him up all Fall

Wow, 5/6 from 3, 6/6 from the line for 21.

Not good enough for MadFran though,......makes sense.

MadFran, stop making sense!

He was pushed out by CJ Fredrick who can shoot, penetrate, and defend. Serious upgrade over Moss

I am usually on board with your schtick but I would delete this.
