If you could choose one Cyclone from the past to come and help this team out

[aauummm]

Jeff Hornacek

Jeff Hornacek, high basketball IQ, proven leadership and a coach on the floor as well.

 

[Wesley]

Stinson "Blue Collar" since he would have to instill hard work into his compatriots and he has not been in trouble with the law. Our guards are too nice and they need to get rougher.

 

[chrishull14]

Dedric Willoughby...we need outside shooting.

 

[isuno1fan]

Kenny Pratt...just because

 

[jbhtexas]

Fizer...maybe he could impart some nastiness to our interior players.

After that, one of the several tough guards...

Not bad. We could use a few "tear drops" at the start of the second half. Blaylock/Stinson/McDermott could have really helped each others' career if only any of three would have given the other a chance.

I would argue that this team could be a great supporting cast, it's the lead roles they're struggling with.

Exactly right. The answer is Tinsley and it's not close.

do you really think McDermott thought to himself, "screw Stinson and Blaylock! No way in hell I want to coach those two!"?

 

[WalkingCY]

Larry Eustachy

 

[drlove]

All would be a step up:
(in no particular order)
Terry Woods
Skip McCoy
Eric Heft
J. Tinsley
J. Hornacek
Ron Bayless

We need a better point guard!

 

[2forISU]

Dedric Willoughby-pure shooter, great team player and most clutch player in ISU history.

 

[Cysquared]

Barry Stevens - he started Hilton Magic with Johnny

 

[acgclone]

Tinsley + Brackins + Gilstrap = Final 4

 

[MadCy]

Tinsley, hands down.

Bingo!

 

[cyclo120]

Dedric Willoughby...we need outside shooting.

I like this an athletic shooting guard who can knock down shots all day and create his own shot. A very rare thing for Iowa State

 

[BBHMagic]

I think that if we just added JC Holloway we would be leaps and bounds better. Just a point guard that can distribute and doesn't try to do too much. We have a good enough supporting cast.

 

[Al_4_State]

I'll throw in a vote for Kantrail Horton. He was tough, he could shoot, play defense, scrap for rebounds, and was a leader.

 

[Shinyhappyclone]

Tinsley is the obvious choice, and would help any college team in any age.
Dedric Willoughby would be a great guard help for this team, a cyclone never to be forgotten.

Assuming that Greg McDermott will never throw a chair or get a T--which is what Iowa States of the world need when playing KU and Texas schools in the Big12-- I would ask Homan to come in and do some clotheslines and punch some people.....on the other team AND on this team to get them to start playing like they freaking care with some heart.

I love Larry, by the way. I miss Larry. I would love to have a scotch with Larry. I am surprised he hasn't had more success at SMiss than he has. He could come back and show McDermott how to get a T for the team. This isn't the MOValley where the refereees are unbiased. you gotta fight for your right to party.

 

[Knownothing]

Tinsley would get this team to the final 4.

 

[CycloneTony]

Kenny Pratt...just because

Bingo. someone who isn't afraid of anything and motivates you through his play
