    Iowa United 2020

    Yeah Burton got a contract, Homan got hurt few years ago and Jok got hurt last year. We really even with the Hilton team have not had a major problem with flakeouts. In any case we have done a better job this year of making sure we have a bullpen of sorts just in case. The hard part is that...

    Yeah he was really good. And remember Diante put up 25 and 30 a couple years ago in this..he is coming back from an achilles but he says hes doing well.

    Blast from the past: Melvin Ejim gets some nice recognition - and a new baby

    FWIW....I'm trying my hardest (along with a couple others) to talk Melvin into playing TBT this summer. He does have interest, but they have crazy schedules. We shall see.

    Kane playing on ESPN right now

    I can tell you...its not attainable. Trust me..as an ISU alum if we could have made it happen we would have. Kane isnt coming. Why would he? Tyrus will be back Royce I'm not interested in, and hes making 10k a weekend with big 3 who contractually wont let him play TBT. Hogue wouldn't play 2...

    Yeah I seriously don't know why more people don't do this.. you have a you good shot of winning actual money for doing almost nothing. Overseas elite added a couple guys today. I don't really see them losing.

    Yeah. I'm gonna work my tail off to try to get a des moines region next year. Going to be tough considering Columbus and Wichita both put on a really good show. But there's some pretty big appeal having 4 fan bases in town as opposed to just 1. We'll see. And thanks.

    Hey sorry guys. I was going to reply last night but to be honest I was exhausted. Ha. That was a lot of fun and I hope you guys enjoyed watching. So Peter we knew wasn't going to play probably 2 weeks ago. He does have a slight foot issue but the main thing was he had signed overseas and he...

    The Tournament

    Yeah hes actually been hurt awhile. Hes been re habbing a quad injury for a solid month. We were waiting until tomorrow when we have to have final rosters in...but I don't think hes going to be healthy enough for us. It's a bad deal but if I'm being 100% honest we had the same questions you...

    The Tournament

    I'll try to be as diplomatic as I can here but one of the things I did with some of our staff guys from last year (keep in mind I wasnt GM the last 2 years) was to sit down and write out all of the Iowa state guys we had contact with. Ended up being about 25 guys you could realistically talk...

    The Tournament

    We purposely avoided Columbus because of Craft...no joke. Appreciate it. And yeah I don't know why more people don't do the stuff and pick a team. Easy money if you pick right and you don't have to recruit people which is nice. And thanks for the support. I know hes a Hawkeye but Jeff...

    The Tournament

    Awesome thank you! Well hopefully next year you wont have to travel far. ;) As soon as the tourney is over we'll start working on getting des Moines a region next year. Pretty sure we could pack a gym with 4 fan bases.

    The Tournament

    Why not? It's fun as hell. Its great to get these guys that exposure and shoot...we put together a group that will be on primetime ESPN...and I can barely read. :) All kidding aside my 3 main reasons are to just to see if we could put together a group that included as many schools as we can...

    The Tournament

    Yeah so a couple things. The seedings really don't matter much. In the Memphis region there was a team with 6 guys that either one the region or was in the final. I didn't really look. The other thing is we originally were going to go to Memphis but to be honest with you that didn't look like...

And again..we have a Meet and Greet Tuesday at Uptown garage Brewing in Ankeny from 6-8. It's free so bring your kids for...

    Iowa United Meet and Greet..

    Hah..its more a nod to Matt Ryan. Although that stat where he missed 2 open jumpers all year is flat insane.
