Sure but missing the one on Gabe’s shot is completely inexcusable. We can’t be this fan base who complains about officiating all of the time and then not acknowledge when we finally get some love from them. We would have been going livid, and rightly so, if that happened to us. That was KU in Phog Allen type of stuff.

I, for one, am happy that ISU is the new recipient of the KU-type calls in the Big 12. About damn time.

But these officials missed a lot BOTH ways.

Those that have mention we’ve never missed a beat at the PG position with Lipsey since Hunter absence is absolutely right! He’s gonna absolutely be a star at ISU. Really funny thing is he’s actually a good rebounder for a guard.

If you want to keep your Cyclone basketball buzz going, here is a sneak peek into next year's addition. Warning: content may lead to circumstances that requires a trip to the doctor after four hours.


What if Milan exceeds expectations and is better than Omaha? Nice problem to have… lol

Lipsey is our best player right now and I don't think it's close. Other players might have better moments of play but I don't think anyone else consistently performs at the level he has this year. I'm curious what other people think though.
Tamin is gluing this team together and needs to play as many minutes as possible. They just look lost out there offensively without him.

Looks taller than 6’5”, must have long wing span.

I'm almost always wrong when predicting, whether sports or anything else. But ...
I thought 3-1 start to the conference was doable, that these 2 were winnable.
My score prediction for tonight was 66-60 Cyclones.

My work here is done!

That was so much fun to watch!
Ahem. You were 3 off mister!

We have high standards here.

Expect better out of you from now on, OK?

Haha. :D

While I think Jones does some good things for the team, I hope we see Osun turning a corner and playing 20mins a game.
Jones is at his best when he can come off the bench and show off his energy and his hustle. That’s his real talent, is providing a spark when we need it.

That was a break. Not the same level as 17 free throws to zero free throws like @ou last year, but a break. The side of the backboard call wasn’t any worse than last game when they called Grill out of bounds and his foot was 2 feet from the line.
And pretty good really, when you consider 2 of the 3 refs were calling the game from a remote location! :p
