You're right. That's been my complaint from the beginning. Outside of CB, there simply are not many Big 12 caliber players on the court for ISU.
Yes lets hire guys that have never been head coach at any level
Defense isn't our issue, and we'd get torched in a press. They'd go after Brackins hard to put him in foul trouble or they'd take easy buckets. One shoot four retreat? I'd say our bigs (when they aren't hanging outside) do a decent job of trying to get to the boards, they just aren't strong enough to muscle someone out of the way to get position.
Weren't you just ripping on McD's coaching a minute ago, and then you bring this up?
He took all the cerdit when he was at UNI, and he took the big paycheck in Ames. You can't turn around now and blame the players - they are playing hard and trying. He can't have it.
Morgans players leaving.....Morgan recruiting scandals.......Morgan selling satellite dishes......not enough talent and too weak.......they are just walkons....other team is superior....anything but GMac in 3........2........1
This is so true. We're down 15, and some guys are still playing way off their man. There's no intensity that says "we have to win this game."
Watching the games? I'd be willing to bet unless you are a HUGE donor I'm closer to the floor watching every game. Craig Brackins does what he can without being stupid, and Hamilton will get a few garbage boards each game. JVB tries to go to the boards, but gets shoved out of the way.
It looks to me the program he built at UNI is still doing well. Looks like he built that the right way. They are winning with Jrs and Srs that he recruited. Mac doesnt blame the players he puts a lot of blame on himself.
Glad to see we all agree, then, that this is Greg's fault. My original post was to support the players. BTW, UNI would be a sub .500 in the Big XII. This style won't cut it in the big time. You have to have a plan on both ends of the court. We are 1 dimensional on offense.
I think we are also a basketball system away from winning also. We have not had a winning game system for five years.
Can it be much worse? 7-22? 6-24? I think Fred could do okay. Maybe Jeff also. We play at least 12 creampuffs in non conference. The current team is not even competitive on the road.

The game collapsed when our guards could not get the ball five feet beyond the midline four times in a row.
