Wow, how bad is Iowa? 10 seems crazy. I’ve come to a point of acceptance now. Archived Message

I came to the conclusion this morning that I am ready to be done with this season. If they win tonight and go to the tourney that’s great and I’ll enjoy what little will come of it.

If they don’t, it will be a relief to be done with the poor shooting, dumb turnovers, and turnstile defense.

Reboot next year and see where it takes us.

Jeremiah Fears at 11......hitting 45% of his 3's this year. - Illiniphil March 1, 2025, 19:13:18
By 45 you mean 28? * - jdl March 1, 2025, 21:35:03
I read right over the "over the last 3 games" part. - Illiniphil March 2, 2025, 9:13:34
That link as him going at 11.* - Illiniphil March 1, 2025, 18:46:37
It linked to the early season version, current one has him at 5* - OB25 March 1, 2025, 18:53:22
Yeah, not sure why the link was wrong - Blazer March 1, 2025, 20:56:19

Some will say too late, but I’m very impressed and heartened by the tweaks Brad made on defense last - snipes824 February 26, 2025, 11:44:35
He makes adjustments between games and during seasons all the time. - uofi1998 February 26, 2025, 11:58:02
Meant to include this below, but he claimed they’ve been wanting to implement it for weeks - OB25 February 26, 2025, 11:55:07
Some interesting things from the postgame pressers - OB25 February 26, 2025, 11:38:12
On #2, I actually like picking people up farther out - Blazer February 26, 2025, 12:35:53
Fran is such a little bitch* - OWWDig February 26, 2025, 12:03:12
his tears are delicious. can't wait until freeman announces he's gone.* - Ari Gold February 26, 2025, 13:10:40
what's the point of #3?* - lcubed February 26, 2025, 11:43:24
No real point, I’m personally tired of hearing how good they shoot in practice. - OB25 February 26, 2025, 11:54:08
Also funny that Brad yelled at the reporter for putting any stock in warmups after the Duke game… - OB25 February 26, 2025, 13:46:18
Same thing occurred to me - Blazer March 1, 2025, 19:47:10
wasn't there some bill simmons bit about a nba pick looking great doing drills against a chair?* - lcubed February 26, 2025, 12:08:58
<Insert Jack Krapp video link here>>* - DocWalk20 February 26, 2025, 13:42:50
Yi Jianlin. But that was mocked from the start, no one thought it looked impressive.* - OB25 February 26, 2025, 12:10:05
Same reason I'm a god with the driver at the range. No pressure.* - uofi1998 February 26, 2025, 12:06:00
Yep. Lights go on and guys get amped up. DGL was long on all of his attempts last night.* - voiceofreason February 26, 2025, 13:07:54
step 1: Put Dix in a box * - ijustkrushalot February 26, 2025, 11:42:18
Currently seventh in B1G standings and seems our likely tourney seed. - illini February 26, 2025, 10:47:00
Disappointing to see some empty seats in the area to the left of the screen. :-/ * - osklister February 26, 2025, 9:41:19
I was very pleasantly surprised at how full it was all things considered. - OB25 February 26, 2025, 10:00:19
Oh yeah, CU is not near the population center for it's fans. - osklister February 26, 2025, 13:19:25
I was really pleased with the crowd last night...I thought it would be 'dead' - OWWDig February 26, 2025, 12:07:48
My general philosophy is that people sitting at home on their couch - biclops February 26, 2025, 10:21:54
R/T flights/hotels for dozens of home games/year isn't financially feasible for me, so couch it is* - ArtVandelay February 26, 2025, 11:14:04
That’s understandable. There’s lots of reasons people can’t or won’t go to games - biclops February 26, 2025, 11:24:09
Yeah, it was more people than I expected... - JFG February 26, 2025, 10:14:28
Glad to have a no stress second half. - illini February 26, 2025, 7:21:24
winning one of the next two would be so huge. get some momentum, but also would probably - John Coctostan February 26, 2025, 5:50:50
Like Iowa, Purdue doesn't defend the paint well - bjl63 February 26, 2025, 10:19:08
Another strange stat: 5th conference win by 20+ points, most since 04-05* - Blazer February 25, 2025, 23:24:04
The Feast / Famine highs and lows have been something.* - DocWalk20 February 25, 2025, 23:49:21
To all the haters whining before this win was for me not for thee* - JeffFrank February 25, 2025, 22:44:34
What does it feel like to be oldest and whitest whore on the planet?* - JFG February 25, 2025, 22:51:27
Whore nun* - JeffFrank February 26, 2025, 0:04:47
Player/coach - jdl February 25, 2025, 22:44:13
Pack your bags, Zach* - biclops February 25, 2025, 22:45:50
is he the analytics guy? I assumed it was Tyler pushing it so much* - Tooldresser February 26, 2025, 7:37:43
Tyler is the offensive coordinator. Hamer is the defense* - biclops February 26, 2025, 8:22:47
Minor point, but can we get the staff some blue pants to wear with the orange pullovers?* - voiceofreason February 25, 2025, 22:16:19
I wonder who decides their matching outfits for each game - biclops February 25, 2025, 22:24:12
The chick Brad is banging makes breakfast for Tyler every morning. She picks out Brad's outfit and - Chuck Woodaby February 25, 2025, 22:28:02
Mary Kate?* - GMAW February 25, 2025, 22:39:39
She seems nice. We should make her a NIL offer.* - Chuck Woodaby February 25, 2025, 22:48:21
Incredible pull by that dad.* - OB25 February 25, 2025, 22:51:59
I can’t wait to buy her memecoin* - biclops February 25, 2025, 22:48:59
I'm a fan of her NFT* - Chuck Woodaby February 25, 2025, 22:53:55
Some strange unexpected stats: Got outrebounded by an Iowa team without much inside presence. - DocWalk20 February 25, 2025, 22:08:33
tonight was a very satisfying night, but our lack of bigs is going to be a struggle for us* - snipes824 February 25, 2025, 22:18:20
Especially since it’s pretty clear Tomi is still struggling with jumping. - OWWDig February 25, 2025, 22:19:39
Hopefully he can get some rest as we have 2 games the next 10 days then another almost week off* - Mrap24 February 25, 2025, 22:40:50
But it's a double edged sword. For the past month, he has been resting/not practicing...only games. - JFG February 26, 2025, 8:16:12
yeah, his vertical looks very limited right now - snipes824 February 25, 2025, 22:21:49
14 mins for Ben, hallelujah* - Blazer February 25, 2025, 22:14:31
I have to chuckle that he goes 2-2 from three in this one. - OB25 February 25, 2025, 22:26:32
Pressure creates diarrhea down his leg* - Chuck Woodaby February 25, 2025, 22:32:28
That one qualifies as strange too. But, yes, hallelujah. Tre isn’t perfect but more Tre is more - DocWalk20 February 25, 2025, 22:15:30
20 missed 3s and several missed FTs meant many easy boards* - Potomac February 25, 2025, 22:11:18
But missed long shots often give the offense a better chance at the OREB. Iowa also had more OREB - DocWalk20 February 25, 2025, 22:14:45
Very solid performance by pretty much everyone. Defensive effort was good too. - OB25 February 25, 2025, 22:06:24
I’m ecstatic (at least for the moment)… - DocWalk20 February 25, 2025, 22:17:44
Shame on underwood not clearing the bench - redgrange77 February 25, 2025, 22:05:35
Lulz…the first sub time, they gave up 11-0 run in less than 2 minutes…* - harb February 25, 2025, 22:07:30
Happy Lock Day!! - Blazer February 25, 2025, 22:05:19
I am a cosigner of another’s thoughts* - DocWalk20 February 25, 2025, 22:18:23

Chris Kingsbury’s kid plays for Iowa and good god we are old* - Herman Blume February 25, 2025, 22:05:05
Good win considering the last few games. * - harb February 25, 2025, 22:04:57
Yep. Shooting still wasn’t pretty and rebounding wasn’t great. Still managed a 20 pt win. I won’t - DocWalk20 February 25, 2025, 22:11:28
So....is that a lock now?* - ISeeDeadHawkeyes February 25, 2025, 22:04:21
yep. no worse than .500 in the league.* - Ari Gold February 25, 2025, 22:05:45

Do we have to win another one to avoid the play-in?* - QcIlliniFan February 25, 2025, 23:02:30
I doubt it. No remaining chances for bad losses* - GMAW February 25, 2025, 23:08:45

that’ll do* - biclops February 25, 2025, 22:03:09

Well, dominated 18 minutes of the half. Just a crippling 2 minutes from bench gave them hope - OB25 February 25, 2025, 21:00:54
Hear me out - ISeeDeadHawkeyes February 25, 2025, 21:06:07
our major problem is there's no 3rd big - snipes824 February 25, 2025, 21:07:46
3-14 from 3. out rebounded 20-17, but up 7. hopefully, we see a good 2nd half for a change.* - Ari Gold February 25, 2025, 21:00:50
13-21 from 2. 3-14 from 3 - GMAW February 25, 2025, 20:59:40

Thats 80 percent Boswell* - GMAW February 25, 2025, 21:00:04
let's hope he can keep it up as sandfort usually plays much better in the 2nd half.* - Ari Gold February 25, 2025, 21:02:23
Those 2 KJ fouls are so dumb* - UofIL6 February 25, 2025, 20:57:20

that time we were good at rebounding * - biclops February 25, 2025, 20:55:12
It’s funny because KJ was already established in his spot and didn’t really encroach. IMO. * - harb February 25, 2025, 20:55:12
Bodgewell* - ISeeDeadHawkeyes February 25, 2025, 20:55:10
I didn’t even know what a cylinder call was* - illini21 February 25, 2025, 20:54:58

High knees wants to be the star of the show* - OB25 February 25, 2025, 20:46:18

Needless to say but Morez is important * - CWR10 February 25, 2025, 20:41:04
Yes, but we were rebounding well in the non conference when he only played 10 mins/game* - Blazer February 25, 2025, 20:47:37
He was averaging 15 minutes and 7 boards a game in the non-con. Can we stop with that narrative? - Chuck Woodaby February 25, 2025, 20:54:49
14.4 and 6.5, but point taken* - Blazer February 25, 2025, 21:04:07
Are you including Wisconsin and Northwestern in the non con?* - Chuck Woodaby February 25, 2025, 21:06:50
Yes, I was referring to pre January - Blazer February 25, 2025, 21:09:44
One bad thing, any negative, and every man on this team folds immediately* - John Coctostan February 25, 2025, 20:37:27
Other possibility - we come prepared with a specific point of emphasis on offense early… - OB25 February 25, 2025, 20:41:48
Such a view is nuanced and requires non black and white thinking - Blazer February 25, 2025, 20:48:54
We stopped even trying. We turned it over carelessly. We then forced shots - John Coctostan February 25, 2025, 20:43:12
And the ole D starts* - OWWDig February 25, 2025, 20:47:46
It really is unreal. Up big like vs MSU and then fold* - OWWDig February 25, 2025, 20:39:04
yep. iowa knows that too.* - Ari Gold February 25, 2025, 20:38:40

All the bad stuffed has returned in an instant* - OB25 February 25, 2025, 20:36:55
Sigh. This team* - Blazer February 25, 2025, 20:36:16
Truly amazing. Ben loses the ball, leads to a force. Than a terrible 3. All while nobody - John Coctostan February 25, 2025, 20:35:49
What a disgraceful 2 minutes. And WTF Boswell* - OB25 February 25, 2025, 20:35:43
Get Humrichous off my television* - CWR10 February 25, 2025, 20:35:42
the bench is bad* - snipes824 February 25, 2025, 20:35:19
well that lineup was a mistake * - biclops February 25, 2025, 20:34:56
grab the fucking ball! so bad.* - Ari Gold February 25, 2025, 20:34:56

Wow. What a play by Will to keep possession. * - harb February 25, 2025, 20:28:56
lol at that flop by harding.* - Ari Gold February 25, 2025, 20:28:20
He threw his head back twice just bring the ball up the floor earlier* - Ron McDon February 25, 2025, 20:29:35
Tre for 3…* - harb February 25, 2025, 20:28:12
Found gold* - Blazer February 25, 2025, 20:30:44
TR3! * - jdl February 25, 2025, 20:30:16
5 catch and shoot, wide open. Made 1. Inexplicable* - John Coctostan February 25, 2025, 20:28:06
The inconsistency of the form is so frustrating - Blazer February 25, 2025, 20:29:33
Sure. Still wide open catch and shoots. All have been save ivisic’s last heat check* - John Coctostan February 25, 2025, 20:33:37
Not disagreeing with you. Just trying to point out why they’re not going in - Blazer February 25, 2025, 20:35:41
KJ set, square, straight up, goes in* - Blazer February 25, 2025, 20:46:42

Good idea for a drinking game!* - illinilosch February 25, 2025, 20:26:36
Riley is so weak. Always getting nudged out. But man is he crafty* - John Coctostan February 25, 2025, 20:24:09
Did Tomi just hedge on a screen?* - Blazer February 25, 2025, 20:23:36
I saw that too. Didn’t believe my eyes.* - DocWalk20 February 25, 2025, 20:25:11
great start. their defense looks horrible. but man our rebounding is such a problem* - snipes824 February 25, 2025, 20:20:25
just getting killed so far.* - Ari Gold February 25, 2025, 20:22:41
good start, but lol on not getting a shot on a 2 on 1 against harding.* - Ari Gold February 25, 2025, 20:20:08
Nice of them to give you something to pre to.* - Chuck Woodaby February 25, 2025, 20:21:08
Good start, they can’t guard anybody* - OB25 February 25, 2025, 20:19:45
Wide open spot ups. 0/2* - John Coctostan February 25, 2025, 20:19:10
But obvious the emphasis is inside, which is great. Iowa stinks* - John Coctostan February 25, 2025, 20:19:41
First time seeing Iowa…holy shit are they bad* - illini21 February 25, 2025, 20:19:05
They can put up points especially when Sandfort and Dix get rolling. - DocWalk20 February 25, 2025, 20:20:20
yes. they tend to shoot better as the game goes on. can't let up.* - Ari Gold February 25, 2025, 20:29:49
What a pass by Kb to Tre. * - harb February 25, 2025, 20:17:54
Followed by an awful 2 on 1 fast break by KJ and Tre. Jeesh.* - DocWalk20 February 25, 2025, 20:18:33
kj's tos are just lol bad.* - Ari Gold February 25, 2025, 20:21:20
no sleeve on Ivisic’s leg* - biclops February 25, 2025, 20:17:19
Behold the healing powers of fettuccine alfredo!* - OrangeSox February 25, 2025, 20:19:55
Maybe grab a board* - Ron McDon February 25, 2025, 20:17:09
I second this thought.* - DocWalk20 February 25, 2025, 20:17:23
STOP THE COUNT! - ATL February 25, 2025, 20:15:12
O/U on 3 ptrs made by ILLINI tonight? I say 7 * - illini thunder February 25, 2025, 20:14:52

So are you volunteering to drive Ben to Iowa?* - DocWalk20 February 25, 2025, 20:07:57
Good* - Blazer February 25, 2025, 19:54:20
had to be done* - snipes824 February 25, 2025, 19:56:12
a large Serbian is attending - biclops February 25, 2025, 19:46:31
We sure are leaning heavily into the European recruiting* - OB25 February 25, 2025, 20:08:15
I just want to know where he got an orange version of the TSJ upside down shirt. I only saw blue - DocWalk20 February 25, 2025, 19:48:42

i love the over here. We cant stop anyone and SHOULD be able to take them to rim at will* - ArtVandelay February 25, 2025, 13:27:07
I might need to drive to Indiana to bet the under.* - Chuck Woodaby February 25, 2025, 17:46:21
With all the Underwood negativity out there, a tweet I saw about Curbelo’s history made me think… - OB25 February 25, 2025, 12:34:18
Totally. And though people hate the Matthew Mayer team, I actually think that was a solid job too - Blazer February 25, 2025, 13:12:43
So much will depend on these last 3 games, but it’s really hard for me to define this season. - OB25 February 25, 2025, 13:20:59
I suppose as long as you make the tourney it's never a complete failure - Blazer February 25, 2025, 13:45:18
That choice got us an E8 last year - jdl February 25, 2025, 15:45:56
win tonight, and try and get something to hang your hat on in the final 4+ games - ijustkrushalot February 25, 2025, 14:32:14
Looking forward, this season (despite making the tournament, hopefully) could be a long term bust. - JFG February 25, 2025, 14:27:01
Even though they could have brought some guys back, the situation we have to avoid… - OB25 February 25, 2025, 13:55:09
That's fair, though I'd say the problem is the role players - Blazer February 25, 2025, 14:43:45
And Will Riley?* - IlliniRunner February 25, 2025, 19:31:55
Obviously, I think this year would be a lot different without injuries and sickness. - JFG February 25, 2025, 13:14:26
I do agree that some adjustments needed to be made. But you need to be able to practice - IlliniRunner February 25, 2025, 13:18:31
As somebody that's had the Central Illinois flu-bug...it's a ripper, no doubt. - JFG February 25, 2025, 13:33:53
I think it's also that these guys haven't played together before this season. So there's no culture - IlliniRunner February 25, 2025, 14:03:28
I think that's a huge part of why this crumbled so quickly - AintHatin February 25, 2025, 15:01:47
See: Green, Shauna* - Blazer February 25, 2025, 13:47:30
But she has players who have been in the program for multiple years, no? - IlliniRunner February 25, 2025, 14:04:55
I wonder how much this is contributing, especially on D - bjl63 February 25, 2025, 13:26:30
I think it's a BIG part of it. Someone had previously talked about this team not being as tough - IlliniRunner February 25, 2025, 14:08:27
Wow, how bad is Iowa? 10 seems crazy. I’ve come to a point of acceptance now. - voiceofreason February 25, 2025, 10:55:47
they're bad, especially on the road and without freeman.* - Ari Gold February 25, 2025, 12:58:26
Somehow I missed the Freeman thing.* - voiceofreason February 25, 2025, 13:02:17
Yeah, I'm checked out after Duke. I'll hate watch, but I'm done with this season. - uofi1998 February 25, 2025, 11:12:46
We will see if it holds, but this is the first game I'm voluntarily skipping in a long time* - reggiedunlop February 25, 2025, 10:22:28
I'll always watch every minute and continue to hope. It's a disease* - Blazer February 25, 2025, 13:14:16
I’m a bulls cubs and bears fan. I could rewatch the Duke game after Iowa and still be fine - digs February 25, 2025, 11:07:40
*fistbump** - DocWalk20 February 25, 2025, 15:42:57
You'll be better off - ISeeDeadHawkeyes February 25, 2025, 10:56:12
I watched roughly 15 seconds of the Duke game. Saw more than I needed to.* - Warrin'_Illini February 25, 2025, 10:34:59
Yeah I was out at a bar in Columbus and saw maybe 10 minutes of it. - voiceofreason February 25, 2025, 10:56:29
I was out and about that night and sat down to watch at about midnight. - AintHatin February 25, 2025, 10:47:02
It was a pretty easy decision to give up my tickets for tonight* - illini21 February 25, 2025, 10:33:24
I just can't...I'm beyond help. Meanwhile, we're figuring out our plan for the re-seating* - OWWDig February 25, 2025, 10:47:23
How on earth can anybody lay points with this team right now?* - uofi1998 February 25, 2025, 9:41:53
Not to mention double digits* - bjl63 February 25, 2025, 9:42:52
We can’t lose this f*cking game* - QcIlliniFan February 25, 2025, 9:39:50
Pretty much a must win* - OWWDig February 25, 2025, 9:38:05
Terrance Shannon had a big game last night, 17/10 in a big win over OKC. - Warrin'_Illini February 25, 2025, 8:47:57
That is awesome...yes, great win, and nice to see him getting opportunity* - RSMBob February 25, 2025, 10:50:02
Break out the Francon chart! Possibly the last time we can use it. Hoping for Francon 1* - ibdoc February 25, 2025, 8:32:22
We win but dont cover, bet the under* - ISeeDeadHawkeyes February 25, 2025, 8:29:56
171 is quite the number* - GMAW February 25, 2025, 8:17:05
I can’t believe how much I don’t want to watch this * - Jackie February 25, 2025, 8:04:55
I can't believe I'm driving down and back to watch it* - OWWDig February 25, 2025, 9:37:40
10 point favorites is wild* - CWR10 February 25, 2025, 7:57:42
Given our performance against the spread lately, it means we have a chance of a narrow win * - ijustkrushalot February 25, 2025, 8:36:06
Game will be in 4K, break out the Fox Sports app * - jdl February 25, 2025, 7:55:26
Instant classic!!! - osklister February 25, 2025, 7:58:21
