A lot of young talent on this team with more coming in next year and the year after. Good times ahead for Iowa basketball.
now more the little shithead millennials need to start showing up.

A smattering from CF

"This team is an NIT team at best. They are going to get crushed in the Big 12."

"season is over."

"Campbell has yet another big recruiting weekend!"

"Sorry, but this is not a NCAA tournament team. This is God-awful, and it's not an outlier."

"Holden gave me cancer"

"Iowa is flat out garbage, giving up about 90 a game, and we can't score against them. Just an embarrassment. "

"Fire Prohm!!!"

Fran: Have had moments of greatness on both ends but hadn't put it all together. For the most part executed our game plan offensively. Tried to wall Morris off and keep him out of the lane. Risky because he has 3 point shooters around him. Locked in to rotations tonight.
bohannon 3 was huge. Moss finishing on the break. Nothing rattles him. His defense was fun. Watching young kids grow up before our eyes.
Baer off the bench is good for us. Wanted to do that from beginning of the year. Wagner energy was special, foul trouble limited minutes. Baer knows where to go and where to be. Has toughness.
Had Lute at the house last night for dinner. He spoke to the team and was terrific. Positive and funny. Guys went nuts when he came in the locker room.

I love that they did that without Cook. That injury sped the learning process up for this group by half a season. When he comes back I don't think he presses for baskets as much and everyone is better for it.

Watching a little isn't going to hurt his defense either.

Is Iowa going to win that trophy/award what ever it's called this year?

Now nobody freak out when we look like a bunch of buttfuckers in some games cause it's coming.

Thank you, Cyclones, for humiliating me once again. Thank you for taking the one thing we could brag about and shitting all over it.

It was an absolute great thing he got hurt. Pemsl/Moss/bohannon all were forced to grow up and score. Now they will be so much better for it.

Fran and the team also won't force to Cook as much and can play within an offense.

Those ISU fucks are going to have some great quotes tonight about how they beat themselves.

I also want to say that Pemsl will be a better and more important player in the long run than Cook. Both will be very good, but as far as college ball Pemsl will be a special 4 year player.

I owe Jordan bohannon an apology. He is a damn good player that if he hits shots and doesn't turn it over and plays the best defense he can will be a good Big Ten player. He has a big ol' cock on him compared to previous point guards.

As long as he stays healthy, he's going to own a lot of records. Incredibly efficient and plays within himself.

You're pushing it.
Cook needs to rebound and play defense at a minimum. Right now he is a whirling dervish with bad hands.

He already has a better feel. He's a gamer.

The entire team couldn't rebound or play defense 4 days ago. I think he will improve.

At this point,I won't be surprised if we end up five games under .500, .500 or squeak into the NIT. But at least it's fun to know that that's a possibility. This team could really really improve and surprise. That kind of intensity is needed night in and night out.

Moss is the real fucking deal. Finishes well with both hands and has natural instinct. Best perimeter defender on the team. 6'7'' and has a decent shot.

Fuck yes.

Holy shit, I hadn't read that article with Niang quotes.
“Georges texted me last night, ‘Stay in Iowa City if you don’t win Thursday,’” Iowa State Coach Steve Prohm said with a wide grin.
What a bitch.

“I don’t want to stay in Iowa City for more than an hour and a half ever in my life,” said guard Naz Mitrou-Long. “If Coach Prohm wants to stay out there he can do that, but I’ll walk back to Ames because that place ain’t for me.”
See ya. 3-8 shooting with 0 assists, 1 board, 2 turnovers and 4 fouls.

All of that past success on a national scale means something to Iowa State’s players, but there always is something different when it comes to the Iowa game. Niang blowing a kiss to the Iowa student section in 2014 is one of many examples of memorable moments in this rivalry’s recent past.

“For a big-time player to do that, that just sparked the rivalry,” said point guard Monte Morris. “Fans come to watch the trash talking and it’s their expectation for the game. It hypes the whole thing up, makes people come watch it and makes it electrifying. The game would be boring if both teams weren’t talking.”
Only one team did the talking. And it was the team that played 7 seniors who lost by 14 to a bunch of young guys. While you went 4-15 from the floor.

Lolol...what a shit school to root for

Maybe this is the football hangover talking, but in one fell swoop I've gone from raving enthusiasm to complete and total indifference.

Thank you, Cyclones, for humiliating me once again. Thank you for taking the one thing we could brag about and shitting all over it.

I've always said, even when we're good at something, we'll find some way to attain futility. I hope we never earn a #1 seed in the NCAA tournament because I have no doubt we'd be the first #1 to lose to a #16. Looks like I don't have to worry about that anytime soon.

I'm going to drive to Sioux City and punch Mike Gesell in his ginger dick. This would be win 4 out of 5 against Iowa State if he hadn't left a puddle of piss out there on the court.

Fucking Dom. You'd think he'd just accidentally plant the correct pivot foot at some point. Drives me crazy.

Someone may need to check on Randy ... all of the other reporters are doing post game quote tweets. Even Williams and Birch.

No doubt about it. Tough fucking kid. Defense will always be an issue but he'll play his ass off and make himself as good as he can be.

This goes for Iowa State as well.
