    *** Official West Virginia Vs IOWA STATE Gameday Thread ***

    I think you’re right maybe on the why. I just don’t feel that is an acceptable way to coach at least to the extent it happens. Playing to March is a real thing but in multi bid conferences you can’t do it in spite of the regular season. For years like this year where coming in with the talent...

    *** Official West Virginia Vs IOWA STATE Gameday Thread ***

    I don’t think we should expect as extreme ups and downs. Games like Saturday are what I’m talking about. The loss at TCU was to be expected and is an example of a down. Saturday was an example of a team who wasn’t motivated and didn’t know what they were trying to do. One is acceptable and...

    *** Official West Virginia Vs IOWA STATE Gameday Thread ***

    Last year was a bit more of a constant improvement but no one can say they started the season playing close to where they should have. To Prohms credit they finished above where they probably should have. The issue is most teams have ups and downs. Generally they can be explained. Particularly...

    It proves I’m not just a hater. I think there are issues that need corrected. I want him to succeed and hope he makes the changes necessary to improve. I’m not going to ignore foundational issues though. What happens when next year we are competing for tourney position or a Big 12 title and we...

    *** Official West Virginia Vs IOWA STATE Gameday Thread ***

    See I see this combined with Saturday as a sign of a fundamental coaching issue. I’m thrilled with today but it has pissed me off more about Saturday. We expected ups and downs this year but they’ve been more extreme than they should. The issue is motivation and toughness. Sticking to pushing...

    Yeah that’s not what I said. It’s like if someone shows you their cards in hold em. Why not take the advantage.

    Carter is at least an actually good defender. He does foul a lot but he is good even when he doesn’t foul.

    Was that a shot at Higgins with the stools?

    That’s the way it seems like it’s been called this year but that isn’t what the rule says. We are usually on the wrong end too. Nice to see it go our way for once.

    Young hasn’t had a legitimate foul all night and has 3 on the board.

    What a freaking joke. Fix that rule that was clearly a common foul.

    Why. Clearly just a regular foul.

    Young didn’t touch the guy on either foul

    Looks like Larry Eustachy's in trouble again...

    I think a lot of it is the AAU stuff. The really good players don’t grow up with that type of coach anymore.

    This start pisses me off because there isn’t an acceptable explanation for this and Saturday to be the same team. Wherever the issue is they need to figure it out. Games like Saturday are unacceptable but at least the team looks like it’s temporarily figured it out.

    Anyone have Sprint or T-Mobile?

    I don’t know how you guys have issues with Sprints coverage. Don’t go rural a ton but in my experience Sprint is no worse than others. Usually it works infinitely better than others during high volume times such as Iowa State games. At work others have issues getting calls but mine works most of...

    MLB: Goodbye to Chief Wahoo

    I think the big issue is certain Native American advocate groups aren’t interested in finding a middle ground. Like I said earlier I think this one in particular would have gone away much earlier if that was the case. As lon. As you have groups who continue to fight against non offensive things...

    MLB Strike?

    Why?? I don’t follow off-season baseball but this seems like he’s just trying to make issues where there aren’t any. They talk about Arrieta but he really struggled last year. Why should he just be assumed to get a big deal.

    MLB: Goodbye to Chief Wahoo

    I think this would have had a much better reception had some groups not taken as extreme stances on other issues. I think the insistence that Native American mascots/names couldn’t be used at all by a small group has made changes and working together difficult.
