Waiting for Coach ZRF to tell us who played horribly tonight
Oh, you know he is lurking around here.

Probably working overtime trying to find his hot take.

Hope he brings it. Love shoving his idiotic rants down his throat.

OH WAIT - BRE JUST DUNKED AGAIN.

Hey @ZRF what do you think BRE needs to do to shoot better from the floor?

It likely isn't more than that.

He flinched last time out and probably just needs more time.

Doing this 'concerns' weirdness after a much needed win like that helps nobody.

This is a kid that needs minutes to get comfortable with the speed of the game. How often are you going to have the opportunity to be up by 30 against a power conference opponent where you can easily give him some run to try and build some confidence?

It's fairly likely we won't be up by over 30 again in any p5 game. If not now....... then when?

As much as Iowa kept pressing why send him out there to struggle?

TJ and staff likely have a plan so I'll go with what they know and have planned.

It might be time to seriously consider discontinuing the basketball series with Iowa. We are the far superior basketball program and a member of the premier basketball conference in the country. Id much rather play a home and home with Notre Dame or Creighton. There is nothing to gain from playing Iowa.....

The look on Patty Mac's face when Momcilovic drilled a sideways sliding three from the Iowa bench corner with about 3:00 to play in the first half:

You say 'struggle', I say 'Learn'. Who's the pessimistic one here?

We have a few scrub games coming up. Hopefully should get some time coming up to prove it.

Ok, yes, let's talk about what words to use.

Whatever works for you.

Email TJ and give him your suggestions. Let us know what you find out.
