Regarding lack of effort ... can you imagine how bored he will be during the non-con schedule if he comes back?

They should make it more fun by trying to score 100 points in a half.

So far, it's a much better schedule next year. That Vegas tourney, Virginia, a much better Iowa team, chance to pay Drake back in style, maybe UNI as well. I think it'll be a much more attractive looking schedule.

I went to a practice last year and saw this Royce White fella everyone was talking about. I couldn't wait to see what he could do because of all the hype around him. I remember him shooting jumpers and making maybe 10% of his shots. I was thinking that this guy isn't that good. As soon as I saw him play against Leigh though at the beginning of the year I took back all I said. Royce is my favorite Cyclone in any sport and is kind of like my Fred Hoiberg (since I didn't know ISU existed until '09). I wish him all the best if he stays or goes. He's a great player and an even greater person. ONE MORE YEAR!

There's an idea. Bury some of the "inferior" opponents when you have a chance, instead of waiting for the high-end games to find motivation.

One of the few annoying traits of this year's team.

And yes, if I had to choose, I'd take a strong January-and-beyond over a 112-57 win in late November. But you can have cake and eat it, too.
