November 18, 201411 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Nov 17, 2014 -> 01:44 PM) Interesting game for you guys tonight, heads. Not going to be an easy one, should be real fun to watch. I lied.
November 18, 201411 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Nov 18, 2014 -> 10:13 AM) UNI and Stephen F. Austin in OT if you guys need something to watch. Fun game, good win for the Panthers.
November 18, 201411 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Nov 18, 2014 -> 10:27 AM) Fun game, good win for the Panthers. Was watching at work. Had to actually do work when OT started. Damn
November 18, 201411 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Nov 17, 2014 -> 09:41 PM) I lied. Considering the pieces they are missing, that was impressive. They get two guys back now, and their center in December. I do wish they scheduled one or two stronger OOC teams than they did though. No one on their OOC schedule looks to be ranked at this point.
November 19, 201411 yr You know college bball has started when you find yourself throwing your arms up in your living room at the terrible officiating.
November 19, 201411 yr QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 18, 2014 -> 08:58 PM) I've never seen a team as long as Kentucky. Wow It's ridiculous.
November 19, 201411 yr I understand they're playing Kentucky, but I don't see anything to be excited about watching Kansas. Cliff looks raw.
November 19, 201411 yr Cliff Alexander and Perry Ellis look tiny out there. This Kentucky team doesn't have a superstar but this is the deepest and most talented team I can remember top to bottom at the college level. Their size is just ridiculous, if they keep their defensive intensity up all year everyone is really going to struggle scoring against them. It helps when you have incredible size and length and most of your big men can move laterally as well.
November 19, 201411 yr QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Nov 18, 2014 -> 10:13 PM) Cliff's draft stock just fell about 10 spots after tonight. Completely overmatched.

Monte Morris is never coming off the floor again, either. Nice thing is I think only like three more games aren't on national TV for the rest of the year.
November 21, 201411 yr Iowa for three years now having troubles in the 2nd half. They led Tennessee by double figures in the 1st round of the NCAA's, they led 13-2 and 30-24 at halftime and got overwhelmed (I'm guessing athletically) in the 2nd half. Uthoff has to take that next step for them to make the tourney...he's an incredible athlete, just gets timid and disappears at times. Edited November 21, 201411 yr by caulfield12
November 21, 201411 yr Gesell is just not a very good player. Iowa has a very good frontcourt, but a poor backcourt.
November 21, 201411 yr QUOTE (farmteam @ Nov 20, 2014 -> 10:41 PM) Good win for IU. This team's gonna go as the 3-ball goes this year. Yeah kind of average but possibly dangerous later on.
November 21, 201411 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Nov 20, 2014 -> 08:07 PM) Gesell is just not a very good player. Iowa has a very good frontcourt, but a poor backcourt. They're going to miss Marble, even though he was perceived by some to be a selfish/me first player. One thing he could do well was create his own shot off the dribble...or get to the rim when the offense broke down. They're hoping Dickerson and Clemmons can pick up the slack, and some of it's going to have to come from Oglesby consistently hitting 3's from outside to open up lanes by spreading out the defense to keep them from packing down on White/Olaseni/Woodbury.
November 21, 201411 yr QUOTE (farmteam @ Nov 20, 2014 -> 10:41 PM) Good win for IU. This team's gonna go as the 3-ball goes this year. Sounds like Michigan. Wolverines have no frontcourt. Any NW guys know why Collins hates Sobolewski? Nevermind, he's just bad.
November 21, 201411 yr QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 20, 2014 -> 11:40 PM) Yeah kind of average but possibly dangerous later on. Yeah definitely streaky. Blackmon is a stud.
November 21, 201411 yr QUOTE (farmteam @ Nov 21, 2014 -> 08:10 AM) Yeah definitely streaky. Blackmon is a stud. IU is going to pull some upsets if their backcourt gets hot. I was telling my roommate last night, if Blackmon stays 3-4 years he's going to be a monster.
