I hardly ever ***** about officiating but **** these zebras. Monte gets raped all game and they call it once yet we get called almost every time they drive. Bunch of bull ****.

Just stupid the shots people make against us. Including an awful shooting team in wvu

We can't stop them. Too many fouls.

One and done. Prohm won't give in will he? This team is ******* gassed. Won't get any better unless Prohm decides to actually utilize his bench. They have the ability. Kind of sad really.

who goes in?

I don't care how bad Carter is. Put him in the game and tell him to foul any guard that comes into the lane. Would have taken fouls away from Niang and McKay. And they were already in the double bonus early, so what would it hurt?

The UAB from last year would beat this team. We cannot rebound. We don't have the horses.

I shall go to bed happy that I only have to watch a team play "basketball" like that twice a year, rather than every freaking game. Not sure how those hillbillies do it.

It's embarrassing how terrible we are on defense...

I'm sure somehow there will still be people blaming this game on how Prohm utilizes guys on offense.

Stripes haven't been good but it's pretty simple...you won't win games giving up 90+. We've now lost 5 games we've scored 80 points in. As elite as we are offensively, we might be the worst defense in the country for as talented of players as we have.

We are losing the games anyway, might as well fix the problems, and get experience for the bench guys. At the very least all our starters won't be tired every damn fame and we may win some. Pull a move like the spurs and rest the starters.

If put in the bench, we could have a game full of our guys with career highs. Like 1, or 2 points on top of the bad defense and the fouls they would commit.

Coach of the year stuff there skippy!

Re: *** #13 IOWA STATE vs #10 West Virginia Game(day) Thread ***

Let's play a game. I had something going on tonight and didn't see a single minute of the game and haven't read a single post. I only just saw the score with a minute left. Let me guess...

We got behind, we caught up, we got behind again but kept within striking distance. Then we stood around and watched and played zero defense while the other team got to the rim and hustled after rebounds and we threw up wild shots and had empty possessions at the end and ****** away any realistic chance we had. Like always.

Am I close?

Does this team even try? It's ridiculous how stupid these last five minutes have been for us. Pathetic garbage. Now we might not even finish 6th in the conference. I am so angry right now.


I see you post often on here and you one of the stupidest people on this board...the whole board. I hope you are about 14.

I will say it again. Officials provide a bit of room and any team can finish off any team. I'm not pleased with the officiating. there is no way they have less ticky tack fouls than us. They reach and push and bump 10X more than any other team out there by definition and the officials are afraid to call ALL the fouls because they would foul 6 of them out every game. It is disgusting to watch and I'll say it happens to every team, not just us.


AND these f-----ers delay every game that comes after them. I too hate the WV hackers.

And 6 of them should be fouled out every single game.

Not impressed with the Coaching this year. Yes, the bench is short, but they've had all year to come up with something, and to coach Cooke/Ashton/Carter up.

I'd like to see better poise from the players, but WVU is a tough environment.

Ashton nor Cooke would see consistent minutes on any team in the top 25.
