Lucca Staiger is leaving Iowa State...to turn pro...in Germany...in the middle of the season. WTF? That's like 20 defections in the last 4 years. Looks like 7 scholarship players until Colvin comes off suspension sometime in February.

 

so annoyed with mcdermott right now. very sick of his "we'll play with the guys that want to be here" attitude. go back to the missouri valley to coach scrappy white guys that hustle. you need more than that to win in the B12.

 

sounds like colvin's suspension may end early which is pretty embarrassing.

What happens when McCamey turns pro after this year and we don't have a point guard again next year? Could happen.

 

He'd be dumb to turn pro. Im not sure hes a 1st round pick right now, maybe Im wrong, but in my opinion hes not. He disappears way to often, and gets lazy way to often.

 

Isnt Abrams coming in next year? Or is he more of a SG than PG? Plus I think DJ could handle the point come next year.

Abrams is a true point, but he's not in next year's class. Next year is Richmond, Leonard, and Head. (+ a redshirt Bertrand)

 

I'd be shocked if DMac went pro after this year. He sticks around, I think he's a lock 1st rounder. He leaves now, he's pretty borderline. Besides, you've been saying all year he's not a point guard.

He's not really, but besides Wall there really isn't much in this draft at Point Guard. Plus he's blowing up.

From the illiniboard. Taken from a writer so obviously his seat must be getting a bit warm for this stuff to start showing up. I say about damn time.

 

 

 

"Weber has been out of his league the day he left SIU. He was lucky to have Bill Self bless him with a roster full of ridiculous talent, but since then, his true capability (or lack thereof) is evident.

 

A reporter yesterday used the acronym A.D. for After-Dee. Well, in the 4 years A.D., Weber's win % is 61%, his conference record is even, and he has won 0 tournament (NCAA) games in that span.

 

Instead of the infamous funeral, he ought to send Bill Self thank you letters every month for building his reputation as a capable Big Ten coach"

This is a quote from an article, or is this one of the goofs over there like Ryan Christie?

I believe it is a goof, but I think he took the AD thing from an article. Not 100 percent sure. Either way intresting stuff. His seat has to be getting warmer.

Iowa only lost by 7 at MSU tonight which is a clear moral victory. It actually could have been a winnable game. We only shot 7-25 from 3 and missed about 6 wide open looks with no one around. Gatens, a 90% free throw shooter missed the front end of a 1 and 1. May was called for an atrocious goal tend by an official that was 50 feet away and we missed back to back bunnies in the last 5 minutes.

 

Had it down to 3 twice in the last minute. This team is getting better and will have a shot at winning at IU on Sunday. Unfortunately it's at the same time as the NFC Championship.

Iowa State has pretty much given up now. Played like complete ass tonight against a bad Texas Tech team. McDermott should probably be gone after this year because there's a ton of correctable things that aren't getting fixed.

I agree his seat is getting a little warm. Missing the tournament this year is going to require some serious leaps forward next year. Obviously the tournament is necessary, but I'm not sure he can survive something like an 8 seed and done next year. I'm not sure he should either.

 

Of course I'm a kool-aid swilling homer and think we're making the tourney this year, and have a Final 4 chance next year.

For a road game, losing by 7 to Tech isn't so bad since I think ISU isn't so much different a team than Tech. Especially for the first game without Staiger. Please give Kansas a battle on Saturday so they're worn down come Monday.

It wasn't that close, they played terribly. And ISU has two NBA draft picks on the roster, they should at least be competitive against a team that probably won't sniff the tournament, shorthanded or not. They usually play KU tough, but they haven't had a quality win in about 5 years and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

There was no way Michigan was going to win @ Wisconsin, but it's maddening to see them lose a close game seeing as every loss makes it less and less likely Michigan can make a miraculous run to the tourney.

Nice to see NC State beat Duke.

 

 

DePaul scored 4 in the last 10 seconds to stun Marquette 51-50.

NIT or bust. Probably bust.

You gotta be kidding me ... freaking NC STATE???
And UNC also lost tonight, to Wake Forest (their third consecutive loss). Not often that Duke and UNC lose the same night.

Assuming things go as expected on Saturday, Kentucky will be #1 without a single win over team presently in the top 25.(as of the new polls) I'd imagine it's been awhile since that happened. (St. Joe's team that was undefeated forever maybe?)

Just glancing at their schedule on ESPN, St. Joe's beat Gonzaga that year which went 28-3 and finished No. 12. That would probably be the only one. They played a 24-10 Boston College team but I'm not sure if they were ever ranked. So probably one team and maybe two.

I agree, now that the recruiting been fixed, he's running out of excuses, with the addition of Leonard, Richmond and hopefully, a healthy Crandell Head. There's no reason not to expect a elite 8 or more run in 2011-12, the team' going to be loaded with big time talent.

That team has a lot of talent. They were certainly hitting on all cylinders last night, but it's not like Duke really beat themselves - they were just outplayed.

 

They've got a really good class coming in next year as well. I wouldn't be surprised to see them ranked this year at some point; or to seem them ranked pre-season next year.
