*** Official IOWA STATE Vs Miami Game(Day) Thread ***

[jaj040]

For what it’s worth…every time we win, all they talked about was the losing team afterwards. Now that we lose- all Miami. I think this coverage is giving me a complex.

They got like 2 sentences about Otz and the turn around with about 20 seconds left.

Offense did us in.

 

[Old87]

I am so proud of this team and the coaching staff. They put the fun and excitement back into Cyclone Basketball. Thank you for all of the effort and hard work that you put into this season. This team will be remembered for a long time. Go Clones.

To quote Paul Rhoads, I am so proud! The grit and effort this team played with through to the end was amazing. Tonight they made some mistakes and missed some shots, while Miami hit some shots. But man this team has brought back cyclone basketball quicker than I ever thought

And then depression sets in.

Proud to be a Cyclone. Nonetheless, we NEED to find a big who has the ability to rebound w/ authority and put the ball in the hoop within 2 feet of the basket. We lost too many 50/50 balls in the post, especially tonight. GO CYCLONES!!!

 

[CYedUp]

I hope you keep our intensity next season on the defensive side and if we can just improve to a top 70 on offense that would be great.

Sweet 16 n Otz’s first year!!!! Many good things to come. Tyrese will lead us to great heights!

 

[HoustonClone]

take a bow, Miami, good game plan executed

And their coach is class. Gave us credit, unlike some of our own fans.

Anyone know why Enaruna got the start? And only played for like 90 secs? Was it just to let him start an NCAA Tournament game?

 

[SDClone]

Miami was a lot quicker than us. The double teams and close outs seemed slower than normal.

 

[CRcyclone6]

Disappointing end, but what a fun, surprising season.

 

[t-noah]

Great season all things considered. ISU went so much farther than I or anyone thought. Just couldn't hit the shots again tonight. Need better shooters. Miami had something to say about that and credit to their defense.

And the turnovers. Too many! Excited about the years to come with ISU basketball.

 

[CyNews]

A tremendous turnaround and so nice to be BACK in the mix!

[Cardinal2001]

Bad news, my Brockington shirt isn't undefeated any more. *sad face

And then depression sets in.

When the cyclone basketball season ends after the official calendar start of spring, they've more than done their job.

Now we shift focus to baseball

 

[daniel22]

Overall we have had decent looks, just missing every shot. That’s not indicative of poor coaching, it’s indicative of an overachieving team without much offensive talent having a bad shooting night.

Turnovers, not finishing possessions on defense, missed layups and not having consistent shooters from deep hurt us tonight. This team overachieved and I can’t complain. They were playing with house money tonight.

The future is bright now that we can start filling out our needs.

Sounds like we messed up the starting lineup card and had his number down

Something with the official book I think they said.
