Should include one more frame from when he caught the ball. Before he started bringing the ball up.
Mika injury update and yellow journalism

The fix was in! Boss Deloss sent word to Pollard that he wanted Mika whacked. Deloss wanted to make sure Texas wouldn't see him in KC. Of course the Big 12 won't hand down any punishment for Kane. They were in his back pocket on that move.
When you F with ISU, you F with Boss Deloss!!!
BYU just doesn't get it.

I found this article. Looks like he led the country in technical fouls for at least two years.

Yellow journalism? I call it terrible journalism. The writing is absolutely horrible. I watched the game and could barely follow the writer's train of thought.
But, why get agitated over a school paper article. You expect them to be homers. Nuff said.

Thanks for the link. I wasn't aware of his background. I watch every game that I can and am impressed with his hustle and leadership on the court. I trust Coach H in everything on and off the court. Sure is tough losing a parent when you're young. Go Cyclones!
Anyone check out ISU on wikipedia this morning. Someone edited it and called us a bunch of thugs.
Plus, look at Niang. He is also looking into Mika's eyes and missed with his attempted double eye gouge maneuver...
Serious question CyBy. Did you actually watch the game or are you one of those people just passing around this photo trying to claim it was a dirty play?
I watched the game last night (had to listen to the live broadcast). Knowing what I know, I kept an eye on Kane. Literally all game, anytime Mika had the ball, Kane was doing the same strip move on him. And was successful with it a handful of times (not always a steak, but sometimes causing a fumble of the ball, which Mika had to recoup and recover with). I have zero doubt that's what he was doing here. I don't even think he was trying to foul. I think he simply misjudged what Mika was going to do wih the ball.
Serious answer: I watched. Even though I've got no connections to ISU any more, I still like to pay attention. I don't really consider myself a fan any more, but I do enjoy following the Cyclones. I thought Kane's reaction time was incredibly slow for a division 1 basketball player and thought the play was overaggressive. Shoot, look at his face, he's looking directly at Mika's face. I never played basketball past freshman in high school, but I remember that your focus isn't on the offensive player's face. His actions warranted an ejection. Do I think Kane meant to go for his eyeballs? No. I think the heat of the competition got the best of him which happened a few times to a few players in this game. Those are my thoughts. I think it was a hard fought game and a great win for the Cyclones.

You're right, his actions did warrant an ejection, because it was excessive contact. But why keep passing around that photo if you don't think it was intentional? I know you're a Panther and really have no connection to ISU now that Grant has graduated, but it seems you have an ax to grind with ISU.
Seriously these guys just need to relax and have a beer........oh......yeah......right, I mean they just need to get laid....oh.....crap....nevermind.
