Jok Eye-Poke

[cyclones12321]

There were about 3 straight possessions in the second half, it appeared to me he changed his pivot foot every time he had the ball. No calls.

About 20 possessions in the firsy half alone

Predictably KU fans are calling out ISU fans for booing an injured player (and storming the court.) It's nice to see that Iowa fans are more rational than KU fans on reddit.

Not necessarily rationality, just there's more KU fans than else on /r/CBB. Larger representation = poorer representation.

The booing also sometimes helps refs give you calls. Its all part of the magic

I did notice 2nd half officiating was waaaay better than the first half

He had a pretty egregious one right in front of the ref when he was trying to hand the ball off at the arc, wasn't even moving quickly.

I was there and I don't think people were booing Jok...what we were booing was the fact that from the stands it looked as if T-Rex poked his own team-mates eye and the ref's stopped play. That's what everyone was upset over.

Regardless of what people think happened, when somebody goes down you shut up and show some class. I wasn't happy that play just stopped without a call but I didn't think it was an appropriate time to boo. It just looks/sounds bad booing with a player down on the court no matter what.

I've been annoyed by the excessive booing at times for years. If there is a blatantly terrible call, by all means boo away. When we're just frustrated because our team has played like **** and we're getting owned by our rival, it makes us look ridiculous. Say what you want but a lot of our fans have this victim mentality and they've convinced themselves we're constantly getting screwed.

I do have to add that it's ridiculous for Iowa fans or any fans for that matter to act like we're the only ones guilty of booing. Didn't halk football fans boo an injured player within the last couple years?

After we forced a shot clock violation at the end of the game, Georges went down and pretty sure he just got hit in the lip a little bit. Very good chance Jok was actually in pain. The booing was terribly classless

I guess when I watched Niang do that at the end, I thought he was being a little dramatic so he could get a break.

Georges got hit really hard. Did you see his face after the game? He looked like a mutant.
