Lewis will Play, Lard Out Vs Mizzou
- Thread starter yler4cy

Lol an undisciplined team isn’t winning anything.
I wish this game was later in the season so Cuonzo Martin had more time to screw his team up.
I was thinking it is going to be a painful game to watch. Possibly interesting, but painful.
I just have this feeling Lard is never going to play for us. I hate that feeling
Maybe. I guess I wouldn't be all that surprised if it ends up being a double digit loss given the circumstances, but are we sure that Missouri is going to be THAT good? I get that Porter kind of ramps up expectations and there's some hype around the program right now, but I wonder if we're giving them a little too much credit.
He will play and it'll be soon
Good thought, it isn't as if the Tigers are adding Porter to a tourney or even NIT team. Mizzou was at the bottom of D-1 and had a lot of the talent they did have coming back transfer out before Conzo took the reigns. It is an intriguing game with 2 team that are under almost complete roster overhaul. Hard to predict either way who has an advantage other than I do believe Prohm is a better game coach than Martin.
I think Missouri is susceptible to great things on offense and great lapses on defense. They are going to score and probably beat us up on the boards, but Prohm can adjust and coach much better than Martin. If we can get some steals and transition buckets, I'm hoping we can hang around to make Missouri's highly-rated team choke it away.
Where does this Lard fella fall among the pantheon of troublemaker Iowa State MBB players?
1. Sam Mack - duh
2. Kenny Pratt - duh
3. Jared Homan - didn't he try to rip out a parking meter during a riot?
4. Jerome Harper -- he killed a ******* guy
5. Shawn Bankhead - the dude fought people in his dorm room FOR FUN

Totally PO'd we scheduled this game in the first place. Should never play these bastards again unless forced in a tournament.
Today, it seems like a number of teams periodically have an individual who pushes the envelope when it comes to team rules. Considering their age and possible backgrounds, some individuals simply don’t fully understand critical nature of acceptance of personal responsibility and accountability. In business, we often found it beneficial for the team sit down together and assist in establishing our team mission and goals. That sense of involvement always seemed to help improve team discipline and clarified the fact that individual actions impact the team and fellow teammates. The sense of unity that arose from these environments also tended to allow fellow teammates an opportunity to take some responsibility for disciplining their teammates.
I have no idea what the problem has been with Lard, but hope he learns to accept personal responsibility for his actions and that the team leaders help to reinforce these concepts. Lard has GREAT potential and let’s face it, we all have made mistakes! For his sake, his future and the sake of the team, I hope we are able put this issue in our rearview mirror and move forward in building team unity, a shared sense of purpose and a burning will to win.

Agree Mizzou not really very good either. I suspect home team wins and so we would win in Ames. Our short roster also hurts since refs tend to call a lot of fouls in early season games. Refs want to establish early how they intend to call games this year. It will be a miracle if ISU wins, but I will still hope!
That's a silly feeling. Coach Prohm said yesterday that he expected him back for South Carolina, and that he was practicing well.
I think your feeling will become a fact. Or he may play for a short time and then be gone. I was worried when he could not complete the needed high school classes on time. But look at the good side, I bet we have the scholarship to use for recruiting next year.
Imagine the difference in results IF Jameel McKay's self-destruct implosion could have been prevented in the middle of the conference schedule... during Georges' and Abdel Nade'rs last season?
