This comeback is going to be epic! TJ has this all laid out. Play like complete garbage and make them feel good, then 2nd Half turn on the punishment defensively, win by double digits and make Fran cry like a *****.

0/10 from downtown is uhhh.....not going to win you games. Even if you make three of those, you're at least still somewhat in the game

Tre King can shoot it a little right? From the footage I've seen Milan can. Who else.

We just need new and different players to solve this shooting thing.

They weren't even playing that hard on defense today like say vs St Johns and they still bricked every shot from deep.

Tj has to get his teams to rebound, both of his teams so far show no interest in rebounding.

For a team that thinks they are so tough, they are really soft in a lot of areas.
I don’t think it’s a softness thing. We just don’t have guys with much ability to rebound outside a small area. Jones and Kunc are limited athletically and Osunniyi is 215 lbs.

All we have to do is pull the reverse of the WBB team.

Osun just isn’t what we hoped he was going to be. He is soft as charmin for sure. He should be dominating the paint but hasn’t really looked good at all this season. Holmes at least has his moments.

The offense is just horribly bad. And Iowa isn’t even good defensively. TCU attacked the Iowa press and got easy buckets but ISU is struggling to break it.
On defense guys keeping getting lost and the traps aren’t working. They should have switched to playing them straight up.

Wow, you keep doubling down and being stupid. You must be a joy at parties.

I did watch last year! I watched a team that won two games the year before go to the sweet 16 and go undefeated in nonconference. What'd you watch?
Sounds like you dont have much of a life. Sad

Might have been better if Murray played, then it would have been 5 on 4 or 4.5 and lead might only be 14 or 12

The biggest question I have is why we aren’t running sets right now to get Grill or Kunc open. Because any shot they take tonight is going to be better than anything Gabe is chucking at the hoop. But neither of them seem like they are wanting the ball. The only guys that want it are a mess.

I thought Osunniyi was this great shot blocker. Led A-10 in blocks 2 years in a row they said. I am not seeing it.
