Not going to start the complaints (That horse has been beat to death), but I wonder if Big Ham sees that his former team is "dancing" and part of him wishes he would have stayed.

He's a good player and this would have been his senior year, IIRC. I think he would have been a good compliment to our squad this year.

I honestly feel that all players that transferred from the McDermott era should be free from ridicule. Having to put up with his incompetence should be reason enough to leave.

I agree. All the one-way tickets out of Ames are pretty clear evidence, especially when it's those that are even getting PT.

He made his choice.. He gets to live with it now.

Either way, apparently you can always blame ISU if everything doesn't turn out exactly like you expected it to.

I do not get upset about any players that left. I start to think that if just one of those guys were still here that would increase the chances that McDermott was still here with his son at UNI. We got the better end of the deal. We may not have realized it at the time, but it has been pretty clear that we were lucky a lot of those guys moved on.

I thought I had heard that Ham wanted back when McDermott left but Hoiberg said no. Does anyone know anything about this?

To be fair he is playing closer to home, tonight anyway.

He played well when he was here, but he doesnt seem athletic enough to play with this team.
