Yeah, they were getting a shot either way and with 10-11 seconds differential they its not like we were leaving them with only a crazy rushed shot or anything. Better to have a good possession.

Well came down to the end wish we would have had the last shot. TJ will take this and use it to grow the team. Hopefully they bounce back and get the W tomorrow.
I totally agree. He’ll get there! I can see why the staff went after him hard, he fits in
nicely with this team.
I think the moat disappointing thing was, we were outworked, outhustled, and outcoached in 2nd half. Just can't blow 18 point leads.
We lost by two to a top five team in our fourth game. That is not an eight seed effort. What the hell is your problem?
Trying to find silver lining here. I’m just glad to not have to have the 10 PM CT tip-off tomorrow night
They scored plenty of points against annually one of the top five defenses in the country. Offense wasn’t the problem.
Problem was keeping their composure when things broke down. Things they will clean up.
Watson needs to be playing minutes over Heise
We have reached the worst post of the season on only our fourth game. Very impressive. Until someone says fire TJ this season (nobody will say that) I don’t think anyone will top how dumb of a post this actually is
I think that’s the problem I have with the timeout. I think TJ is a great coach, but if you’re going to try to waste some clock, why not move the ball around until there are about 10 seconds left, see if you can get an easy layup in that time…and then call your timeout. Then you call a play that hopefully takes 3-5 seconds to develop…and actually get a good shot off.
I take it you're talking about Auburn. Unless you think Dayton beats UNC. Auburn had to make a lot of 3 pt shots tonight to get back into the game. It was a very physical game.
As for Jefferson...having the leg injury like he did...he's still trying to get in basketball shape. He's in shape at this point. But maybe not quite basketball shape for a game like this. He'll definitely have better games as the season wears on.
You are NIT material
I don’t think we will have the half court issues that we saw the last two years though. We showed that in the first half. To start the second we quit sharing the ball and really forced things. The in order for this team to max out we have to move the ball. When it clicks this team is gonna be scary.
I think he just had nobody he could handle defensively. He came out after a baker three where he was just flat footed. He's never going to be able to match up with a team like auburn. It's not a slight it's just reality. Auburn had two pros out there tonight at his spot. Now why he wasn't in in the last play I have no idea. Never seems like we have a great plan out of timeouts.
He will have his nights, but it's just a brutal matchup for him tonight.
Especially in the bonus. Attack and there’s a good chance you shoot two
Auburn is now 2-0 in the Big XII against the two best teams from last year. Perhaps, they are actually a really GOOD team! I hate Auburn, but I am not tripping about ISU losing tonight. National Championships are NOT won in Maui in November!
I understand that we need officials at every level, but how do we have the worst crew in the country for 4 vs 5?
We should definitely not blow so many 15pt+ leads. It would be ideal to rarely ever do that.
Cut him some slack. His Iowa football team is only going to win 7 games this year and their men’s basketball team has started hosting bridge tournaments at halftime, just so they can fill seats
