It takes a helluva person to grow up in Eastern Iowa and not be a Hawk fan. A helluva person.Why are there so many Iowa homers in the media that covers them?

Garza was at times. Did you watch the game. Dakich pointed it out. Mich st did a pretty good job on him.
The problem is Garza is all you have now. You can leave everyone else open and focus on him
Refs!
Honestly I think Garza gets a good whistle most of the time. Especially on the offensive glass. I think the problem is with the physicality he plays with you could probably call a foul on both offense and defense in just about every possession.
Other guys have picked up the slack with Fredrick out and Weiskamp not shooting well. In the past 3 games without Fredrick, Toussaint is 4-5 from 3, Evelyn is 5-12 , Connor is 4-11, Kriener is 3-9. While 4-11 and 3-9 aren't great, they are enough to keep defenses honest. Everyone else on the team is playing at a high level right now.You can just tell JW is in his own head. It's about as rough of a cold streak as I can remember seeing.
It's really amazing that game was even close with Joe disappearing completely and no CJ.

The hope would be that Joe shoots his way out of it and Frederick gets healthy. Joe had a bad night last night and I'm sure he'd be the first to admit it. It wasn't like the team laid an egg like they did in a couple other tough road games. They just came up short down the stretch. Had a couple chances to hit big shots and didn't do it.Those guys are playing pretty well right now, but I just wonder about the sustainability of it as the competition and stakes get progressively higher.

Never thought I would see him shoot this poorly. His shots aren't even close either. When JorBo isn't hitting at least his shots rim out or are back iron and right on target. Wieskamp's shots of late have been bricks and way off. Hopefully he snaps out of it quickly.
That was my takeaway from last night as well. Just not even close on his threes. And not consistent misses either-- short, long, wide.
Some ugly shots for sure. He's too good of a shooter for it to go on too long tho. I really think he'll snap out of it and get back on track.Never thought I would see him shoot this poorly.

No argument from me on that. Ouch. It's been rough but more importantly the Hawks have managed to be 2-1 during that stretch.
Honest question for Iowa fans. Who would you rather have moving forward: Tre Jackson or Joe Wieskamp? Wieskamp is definitely more proven in his career but Jackson is only a freshman
I ended up flipping back and forth between ISU and Iowa. Between Dakich on the Iowa game and the ISU color guy, I had to turn the sound off. They were awful. The ISU color guy had to be the worst of the two. He almost made my ears bleed!!
regressed is a stretch but he is wildly inconsistent.
