The dude (2?)who tried to throw the ball off Milan’s back and ended up throwing it out of bounds by mid court.
Favorite Part of Tonight's Win?
- Thread starter CoKane
- Start date
3 beautiful passes around the 3 point line, where each player turned down a decent look for a better one.
Almost choreographed it looked so perfect.
Then the drive, dish, and hoop.
Somebody gave Fran some xanax before the game or something. He was not his usual spaztastic self.
Gilbert finally learning to take it right at a weaker defender. No need for circus **** against the pukes in cement shoes.
It was glorious. The best moment was when Gilbert scored in the paint, Lipsey stole the inbounds pass, and Gilbert immediately hit a three. Timeout. Juicy Wiggle. The place just went nuts.
To be very clear, I give zero f**ks how much they cry. I actually enjoy it.

Is it just me or does Brock Harding kinda look like Tom Hanks little buddy from Big, found his own Zoltar machine?
I will admit I was one of them, I figured EIU would come out and light it up from 3, and ISU would try to get into a running game with them.
I was wrong, I loved the way TJ game plan for tonight was to attack the rim, and then keep doing it. EIU never had an answer to taking it at them instead of laying back and bombing away. Not only did it get them in foul trouble, but they never adjusted to what we were doing. I have no clue why EIU waited so long to go into a zone, when their guards were just getting abused but they never did the entire first half.
We’ve always had players the we look at and say how can these Iowa dorks defend our guys but they actually do. Well tonight Tre King , Rob Jones, and Keshon Gilbert lived up to the eye-test and Iowa had no answers for them.
Other than Sandfort’s ability to shoot and make open shots, that Iowa team is a ******* mess. I didn’t see more than 2, maybe, 3 D1 players out there tonight. Maybe our defense was that good, but I don’t know. They were just straight up ass. Their PGs look like they should be playing for Coe or Wartburg or something. Been a minute since I’ve seen an Iowa team that completely inept.
He looks like another in a long line of undersized and slow douche bags to play PG for Iowa.
Rob and Tre dominating knowing/hoping we have Ward back in a few weeks.
Also just seeing that Gilbert can match the relentless play of Lipsey. What a potential backcourt going forward.
If Milan shoots it like he has any other game this thing gets REALLY out of hand.

Pat McCaffery’s reaction to Milan’s corner 3 toward the end of the first half. Completely helpless.
Really? I was on radio only. Amazing.
I wonder if TJ had the same as usual cordial pat and handshake to Fran postgame?
I think my favorite part came from the post game show. Keshon said before this the best crowd he played in front of was a road game in the Mountain West conference. It sounded like the crowd tonight really meant a lot to him.
The game was amazing.
But in the press conference seeing Gilbert react after Rob told him the crowd gets louder than it was tonight was the best moment of the night.
Edited to add that the bad part about the new way you have to build a team is that with a lot of the transfers you only get them for a year or two. As a fan, you fall in love and then lose them. But the good part of that is it is fun to see them experience Hilton. And because they have seen other places, they always are so appreciative.

Freeman is a good muscle/hustle guy but I think their fans are elevating him beyond that because the roster is rough. Sandfort is a good shooter but has no business trying to run with lipsey, Gilbert and even Pav.
Unlike Connor I think PMac probably should at least be a role player at this level, but I barely noticed him tonight. Really disappeared. Did he get injured or just completely ineffective.
We ate their Perkins, kicked down their Sand Fort, broke their Dix, and Harding broke a sweat.
On ESPNu post game he said “I love Iowa state so far”. Seemed really happy.
Even when he missed outside shots tonight they looked less forced.
