That’s a stupid question. You need to relearn how to bait the hook.
Iowa Basketball's Super Bowl
- Thread starter CyTwins
- Start date
I have Jordan Bohannon reading my posts in his free time. I think I'm doing alright
If Fran lost 20 straight he'd have no choice (unless half the team gets knee-capped in Ames)
Different fight started by Pemsl and Connor. Get your provocations properly cataloged.
I agree that the fights that Fran sent players out to start garnered an emotional response from the dudes that were molested by the Pemsl et al.
Anything is possible with Fran throwing chairs, kicking things and throwing tantrums. I fear for their safety around that loose cannon.
This is the elephant in the room they are doing everything in their power to avoid acknowledging
I don't understand why ISU fans think Prohm did a bad job motivating his players last year when they lost to Iowa by double digits. That wasn't an upset last year. Both teams were about equal with Iowa advancing one more round than ISU in the tourney.

Do you know what the Iowa assistant coach said after the first fight started by Iowa that got Prohm fired up? You should ask around. Every bit as class as Fran and Maggie chasing down the ref and calling him a cheating mother ******. That staff is "unique" and genuinely unhealthy. Fran, Maggie. With the Chief Enabler and Whiner GarBar I think is smart that ISU has more Ames PD, Story County, and ISP coming to the game for a quick floor response. With as loose a cannon as Fran and Maggie are maybe bring in the Boone National Guard unit in.
I find it reprehensible that Bohannon is directing his lower end players on who and how to create a fight again this year. Right way.
With Prohm knowing the pre-meditated nature of last years vile behavior from the Hawks I am glad the team and local law enforcement are all more prepared for the provocations.
Iowa State was #16 on Bart Torvik
23-12, 9-9 in the Big 12, won the conference tournament, 0-1 in the NCAA tournament
Iowa was #42 on Bart Torvik
23-12, 10-10 in the Big Ten, 1-1 in the Big Ten tournament, 1-1 in the NCAA tournament
The computers say we were a better team. In terms of actual W/L accomplishments, though, you do have a good case for equivalency. I would much rather take the trophy from Kansas City over a Ro32 exit, but that is just a preference.
I-A wins...

We definitely had more big wins over the course of the season. I think that has to count for something about which one of the two was better/had a better season.
The tournament committee thought Iowa State was quite a bit better and for good reason.
Shoving happens in a lot of games. Hitting a guy in the nuts does not happen in a lot of seasons. That's as dirty as it gets.
Either way, they both made the tournament as an at large, both had similar records and Iowa won the head to head. ISU gets a bump for winning the Big 12 Tourney and Iowa gets a bump for winning an NCAA game.
There wasn't some big monumental upset last year. Both teams were pretty equal last year.
