If we did that, this board would explode with kool aid drinking. Everyone would be talking about the tourny once again...which would be nice.
***** Offical Iowa State vs Texas A&M Game Day Thread ****
- Thread starter WhatMeWorry
- Start date
Woooo!:yes:After seeing that Texas game I'm already drunk of the Kool-Aid. National Champs!
Their best player, Khris Middleton, was hurt for awhile, and hasn't really been effective since he came back. They're tough defensively, but have trouble scoring. They have a couple big, tough, dooshes in the middle like usual. That's about all I know.
I saw Middleton play in high school. Silky smooth, his play looked effortless. I feel we will win this game and look for a huge game from Royce. i am curious if Sledge will see some time. He may be needed for his quickness when we play Misery
Are you insane? Starting a new official thread could rip a hole in the space time continuum. CFers would be confused which was the official thread causing mayhem at least for a few minutes before the mods could merge the two threads. By that time the damage had already been done.
Won't someone please think of the children?!

I'm going to guess that Tavon will get some minutes today. Maybe not a whole lot, but probably around 10 minutes. I think Tyrus will be getting a boat load more minutes today.
Sledge has 13 total minutes this season. I highly doubt we'll see 10 out of him today.
I thought Middleton was going to be the best player in the Big 12 this year. Not yet
I hope so. I have a feeling he may be needded before the season is over. There are some really quick pooints in this league.
I feel like Fred will trust Tyrus out there more than Tavon. Tyrus' minutes should go up alot from what he has been getting.
Sledge is an enjoyable player to watch and if I remember correctly wasn't happy with playing time. This would be the perfect time to give him some minutes. I want to see McGee way more, but would love to see Sledge play some to see what he can do. Maybe add some competition for that PG spot since Bubu will be out most of the season.
Yeah it looks like Bubu was averaging 15 minutes and I believe that Tyrus would probably get most of those. Although now would be a good time for Tavon to step it up.
I know I am a little late on this, but I don't know how anybody could watch that video and say with a straight face that Jacy was a bad player.
:skeptical:
That 1997 team had no superstars on it other than Cato and really performed well. There were many "glue" guys on it though. Willoughby was daggers for opposing teams when he could get a back cut and screen to get open. Kenny Pratt and Klay Edwards were tacticians at one thing the current team does horribly: offensive rebounding and scoring. And Cato was intimidating as a shot blocker and easy for Holloway to find in the post.
Floyd's earlier teams even had a player named David Hickman who Floyd would send in to foul hard the opposing teams best player just to get him out of rhythm. "Hitman" Hickman was what we called him as students.
Floyd's teams were built to rebound and defend, and won a lot of games.
For an example of a team that can rebound and defend but still not be very good, watch Texas A&M today.
