I agree. It is a good thing to have depth, but if 3 or 4 of the guys should really not be on the floor, then what is the point? That's not really depth.
+1. It's not football. The new rules especially have made that clear. It seems like Iowa hasn't adapted to that yet. When they would get beat, they would hack. Sometimes they got a piece of the ball which causes havoc. Most of the time, it just ended up causing a blatant foul. They will struggle on the road if they play like that.
+1. That is a BCS-level top 25 team starter? I was super confused by that. I think he is #8 or 9 on our team, only good for his size.
I'm still mad at Monte Morris. Why would you leave Gessel for 3 to double….Adam Woodbury?
Who scouting Iowa? They are a fantastic team in transition and it was like we were unprepared for defense in transition. And Aaron White? Who cares if he made a 3. Don't guard him out there. He'll kill you on back cuts and buckets down low. Keep him on the perimeter with the ball in his hands out there.
How did we win again? : )

It seems this is the case to me too. Not sure why he gives some guys so many minutes. I was on a road trip with nothing better to do than listen to the Hok-Notre Dame game and in the first half Oleshani (sp?) was playing really well, then he played one minute in the second half.
At the end of the day, we got outplayed for 37 minutes, but in the 3 minutes that count the most guys like Ejim, Hogue, and Niang were clutch while Marble and Gessell wet the bed. Games like this and UNI can pay huge dividends. This team is so mentally tough.
Morris came in and played great minutes, and what can you say about Naz and his improvement. I would like to see Thomas get more aggressive offensively.
I really don't care for Gesell and Woodbury. I think it was the fact Iowa fans thought they were such awesome recruits coming out of high school and that they had beat us out to get them. Anyway, it was awesome to see them play such a big roll in the Iowa State win. Kane's inbounds pass off Woodbury was classic and it helped get ISU rolling in the second half and then Gesell's missed free throws with the game on the line were huge. It made the win that much better.
16 boards for Hogue again...is it crazy to think he could lead the nation in rebounding? If not this year next year?
Hoiberg was very focal days before the game that the key would be stopping Iowa in transition.
They knew of it, it just wasn't easy.
Hopefully because Iowa is a great team.
Yeah, everytime he was in I pictured Deputy Dog Roy Boy watching and giving a big "whew, that was close" in relief that Woodbury chose Iowa over his program.
Niang and Long are going to significantly outproduce them from the same class...and they went nuts over their big gets.
Gazelle or a deer in headlights shooting into the Hilton crowd? Gessell did play a very good game up until crunch time though, probably their second or third best player for much of the night. Uthoff got really lucky he didn't foul out, he hand checked twice as much as what Naz got fouled out for doing.
