    Be Patient

    Keep in mind i was excited about floyd, mildly excited about LE(not the star power), thought wayne was possibly a good coach but the whole situation was butchered by the AD, and said before this process began, before anyone had mcd's name on any list, "just please God don't let it be him". guess...

    Preseason NIT

    [ No one here blindly believes he's the best thing ever. Stop exaggerating in order to prove your point. Actually, what is your point? That it's logical to categorically blast a new coach who's never played a game here, inherited a team in turmoil, and already made great strides in filling the...

    Preseason NIT

    to the prior two posts. 1) I was not talking about last year, don't just jump into the middle of a conversation. 2) Actually it hlas a lot to do with the argument that opponents scoring average is the only stat to look at. Wayne took a program that won 12 games 2 years prior, 16 and a early NIT...

    Preseason NIT

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'> I would think points allowed is quite important to those of us who are more concerned with winning than "scoring 72". In Waynes three years only his 2005 team held opponents under 72 points ON AVERAGE. Wayne's best year was only a point...

    For those of you not excited about B Ball and FBall

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'> Now you're a liar. You don't like to win. Youlike to score 72 and will boo if we win but don't score 72. Those are your words. If you like to win you'll like GMac cause that's all he's ever done. One other thing, GMac went 11-7 in his...

    You mean like the two consecutive years we didn't win a road game under larry? that was a blast as I recall.

    Preseason NIT

    Who says points allowed is anywhere near the most important stat. You see waynes teams averaged several more possesions per game due to the higher pace of the game. This allowed the other team more possessions as well. More possessions=more shots, the more shots the more points (unless you are...

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'> Wayne did fail.. He had to quit because his teams were going nowhere at LBSU... Our two other coaches that we all love, Floyd, and Larry were both small school guys before they came to ISU.. Gmac seems to have the same pedigree as Floyd...

    Preseason NIT

    Funny thing, i seem to remember the same thing in 04-05 in the morgan era. Even last year there were signs of it from time to time, when the first trap hit, they throw it to the closest possible player who was inexplicitly a center, and the other shoe dropped resulting in a steal for a fast...

    More possible recruits for 07

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'> With the hype that WM gave him in the preseason, I did expect him to play better than he did. I realize he had illness problems which slowed his development, however, he didn't live up to the preseason hype that WM heaped on him. Even...

    Preseason NIT

    A grind it out style will pack in the fans? Like Orr's grind it out style? How does grinding it out get the crowd on its feet? When I watch Iowa games with thier grind it out style it sure doesn't fire up the crowd, so I wonder why you think it will work here. I appreciate your concern about...

    More possible recruits for 07

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'> I think that we have forgotten that WM only brought 3 four star recruits to Ames during his tenure. Blalock, Clark, and Taggart.
