Tech was down two starters
- Thread starter cayin
- Start date
ISUs second half team would be 0-18 in conference play like the last Prohm team was.
To be fair, Williams was exactly what we needed tonight. Lipsey had his whole year of freshman mistakes in a single game.
Tamin Lipsey
4-6, 11 pts, 5 boards, 4 assists, 4 turnovers
Jaren Holmes
3-12, 9 pts, 2 board, 2 assist, 4 turnovers
One is a true freshman who came into this year with hopes to just get a few minutes a game. The other is a senior brought in to make everyone DAWGs.

We don’t even know if Williams is any good yet..
I love Tamin and think he stays the starter. But how nice would it be to give him a rest when TT was pressing him. It's odd, Holmes has been primary press guy. Not tonight though.
We beat Trch by 34 with those 2 starters playing last time.
Just saying an old PG to help Tamin would've helped. He's a freshman with a day off.
Isaacs is also just as likely to shoot them out of the game as into it. Felt like he had a lot of shots that hurt them in Ames.
Hard to call their big that was out a starter when he has only played like two games and he is still hobbled with his foot.
Tamin is who he is at this point. Has flashes when he gets downhill going to the basket and proven he can finish. Not willing to shoot a jumper outside of 10ft. Has moments where he picks up his dribble when there isn't pressure on him and then forces a terrible pass.
My fear is he didn't just have a "bad game" or "looked like a freshman", it's that other teams now have plenty of film on him and his flaws are magnified.

Did he not come here to start at PG while Lipsey was brought up to speed? Maybe I'm not remembering correctly.
Why would someone who was expecting to be a starter stick around when it's pretty black and white he will not be a starter? Will he play a different position next year? I'm genuinely curious.
I don't know that there was any guarantee he was going to start at pg. He committed when Hunter was still on the team. Said he was looking forward to playing with Hunter. I don't know why he would look at Lipsey any differently.
