I actually laughed when Marty tirade Tyrrell predicted 81-61 Drake. Chalk one up for old Marty!!!!!!!!!!!!
MBB: Meltdown thread
- Thread starter chadm
- Start date
ISU has the absolute worst guard play I have ever seen at the d-1 level. Can shoot, pass, drive and mostly defend. I don't know what the answer is, but man is this ugly. I am going to watch the woman beat up on the Hawks.

So everyone still ok with this loss? Some of us must be freaking crazy to be pissed about this.

Do people really think McDermott is any different a coach than when he made UNI a relevant team? I don't see how people can be so upset at him. He is building a program. We have possibly bottomed out this year, but I am confident he will get it done and get it done right.
But hey, maybe we will turn around and stick another thorn in Iowa's side.. we all know how the football season started, and then Iowa comes into town while we are on knees and we pull one out. Atleast thats the only optimism I can muster for basketball
Re: Humiliating!!!
this is beyond bad... and if i let myself get too mad, i will just break things... So i'm just gonna laugh this one off, and watch the women beat Iowa.

Again, I am sorry for the post. It is very difficult to deal with losing to Drake, we have had a elite basketball program, there is no reason for a low to be this low. IMO
Quick.... someone tell me what GMAC's first few seasons at UNI looked like. Maybe it will make me feel better.
I am done being invested in ISU bball this year. I am getting too mad and too frustrated and it is not healthy.
You know what the answer is! You stated it above! Better guard play! That isn't going to happen this year though...we are in a difficult situation right now! Ouch!
Come on now, hos, that's a little harsh.
I've said it before, I watch every minute of every game, good or bad.
These are my Cyclones, win or lose.
They werent good. Neither were his first few seasons at North Dakota State. He needs to flush out the old and get the new clicking.
MCBB in this era is a guards game. It starts and stops with the guards. And before anything happened this year, back in September, we all knew that ISU was going to be challenged with an inexperienced backcourt. Lucca's situation made a shaky situation a devastating situation.
As bad as it feels, its not surprising.
Add to that Wesley's health, Jiri not at 100% yet, and you are getting what you are seeing.

I was unimpressed with GMAC's resume at UNI. They typically faltered down the stretch in conference play and although they made the NCAA a couple times...UNI also made the tourny prior to GMAC so it's not like he broke new ground. They also won a game in the NCAA prior to GMAC (something he was never able to accomplish). Remember Maurice Newby over Mizzou!
Dead on! It is a painful process to tear down and rebuild! Look at it this way...we are one year ahead of Iowa in the process!
I only got to see the second half but we were out rebounded, played extremely sloppy, and looked very slow too. On the offensive side I think I saw 2 shots in the paint when I was watching which is a problem of driving and rebounding(I'd be curious to see how many offensive rebounds we had). Terrible game
