Not GOOD

[Ken58]

I'm really hoping this doesn't turn into another coach favoring his less talented kid dynamic. Don't Ben, just don't!

Already done!

Another?

Yes.

Yes.

Feel sorry for you

Wow this isn’t good and the way they played and I am hoping that this won’t be a long year for them but they just didn’t look good whatsoever

And still would have won IF they'd been able to make ONE more free throw, so there's that. Howard and Koch were fabulous, and Coleman was great most of the time. It's a tad early to get discouraged, IMHO.

Ben said there'd be ups and downs this season. We lost Bennett, Banks, and Alvaro. ESPN said to, "Check back next year." We watched this team play real competition last night, and they lost. That's it. I'm not mentioning the troubles we had. That would be superfluous. I'll keep watching and hope for the best. Plenty of games left. Let's see what Ben comes up with.

Iowa beat itself by missing all those FTs. As ugly as it was, you make ONE more FT somewhere along the line in regulation and you win. Simple as that. And don't forget Iowa gave up a tough 3-pointer at the first half buzzer and went in down 1 when they could have/should have been up a pair. That, too, would have turned defeat into victory.

Love the positivity…. I hope so too as I think this could be a really good team… all we can do is cheer them on and I definitely will be

The season is still in it's infancy. Let's see what Ben can iron out. The sample is still small. I'll give it blocks of five games and assess.

We were lucky Coleman made his first FT by luck... he did not look confident or ready for that moment at all!

Why?

Why?

Because you believe there has been nepotism
