*** Official #8 IOWA STATE vs #16 Kansas Game(Day) Thread ***

[madguy30]

Might honestly be a good week to let the team have two days off from the game and come back for TCU prep.

 

[Cychl82]

This team is a mess right now and Milan being out just exposed the lack of depth it appears we have. Dang I really thought chatfirld was going to be a beast, getting rebounds and garbage points too….not so much

 

[DSM4Cy]

I wonder if it's better to practice, or let them rest all week.

If I was TJ, I’d get them on a flight to Maui for a couple days of R&R.

He’s a human being playing a ball game. It’s good that he’s smiling.

Cujo is in a shooting slump, but he is one of the guys who seem to still be trying on def.

 

[Old87]

Heise, Chatfield, and Watson have attempted a total of one shots for the game. Only one attempt. No wonder the other teams can focus on locking down the rest of the team. Unbelievable stat

 

[ianoconnor]

Bench has taken 1 shot out of 60

 

[cyfanbr]

Gosh you are a moron. The largest lead of the game was after they hit the tech FTs then we went on a run to cut the lead down from 19 to like 8 or something like that right after it.

@awd4cy also has no shame. Was wrong about saying KST went on a run. Was also wrong earlier about saying KU gives up like 90 ppg or something like that. Time to add someone to the ignore list.

 

[cyatheart]

He already is hurt.

Hurt more

 

[tim_redd]

I believe wholeheartedly that this team will be back on the horse soon. Bad couple games, happens to all but the very top elite teams during a season. Expectations were through the roof, that is why it stings. The mojo will be back.

Gonna be some pain between now and then, but any seed can do big things in the tournament. Better to have a slump like this in February than March.

Lol. "Losing one of our starters shows we lack depth!"

That describes 95 plus percent of college teams.

 

[Cychl82]

It would be easy to say this if they didn't get their doors blown off by a terrible K-State team at home the game before. They needed a better bouceback this game. Plenty of season left to turn this around but it's hard not to be alarmed by what's transpired tonight after that putrid effort on Saturday.

Oh we should be fully alarmed

 

[CycloneVet]

Truth here but there was plenty of stagnant offense under Fred that gets some revisionist history.

And mediocre defense most of the time.

 

[CycloneVet]

He went after the ball.
Lighten up a little. Curtis is a great kid.

Why don’t ban the morons I’m legitimately asking

 

[CloniesForLife]

Been hitting some shots now. Offense is still a lot of 1 on 1 though

 

[xboxfever]

Truth here but there was plenty of stagnant offense under Fred that gets some revisionist history.

There was, but it was because shots weren’t falling. They still ran different sets and plays. This team runs the same offense every time in the half court. Dribble around and pass with weak ball screens. Big difference.

 

[isufbcurt]

Cujo is in a shooting slump, but he is one of the guys who seem to still be trying on def.

No matter what you want missing as many shots as we have tonight is going to affect defense. It's human nature.

 

[Die4Cy]

KU was able to get right after a bad loss. Two games in a row Iowa State hasn't been able to.

 

[AuH2O]

Gilbert has got to be hurt. He’s seems gimpy and largely has for quite a while.

 

[madguy30]

And mediocre defense most of the time.

The '12-13 team was 100-something in adj. D.

 

[Clonehomer]

If we have a player who is better than Heise, he would be playing right now. Many posters here wanted to run CuJo out of the town.

I want to run CuJo back to the sixth man that he excelled at. Let’s get these guys back to the positions that we started the season with. Start Watson until Milan gets back if you have to.
