This. Both short and long term. We won four straight and proceeded to drop two straight, in games that we could have won despite being against good teams. We got up 25-10 IIRC & proceeded to blow that lead. I just don't think this team has the ability to sustain success to make a run in the tourney.Every time I start to get really excited about this team again they lay a big ******* egg.
Outmuscled, outhustled, outcoached.
Burton >> McKay tonight (and has been for a while, IMO), yet we keep trying to force things with McKay and he's not our answer. Not all McKay's fault though. We thought it was going to be easy after our shots were falling and we jumped out to a 25-10 (!!!) lead. Niang is too careless, not playing like an All-American. Poor defense, poor rebounding effort.
1 against 4 and you can't get the rebound!?!? WTF.
This team has mental issues and has since last year.
Players are gassed at end of games, especially Niang. We have to play the bench more in second half . We are getting out hustled badly.
Maybe McKay will tweet he's going home and actually go this time? Might as well get the freshmen some experience
at the end of the day, the fans care more about Iowa State than these players do, they are essentially hired guns. They will go back to wherever they came from and not give two ***** what happened this year. Like somebody said above, this particular team doesn't deserve the fan support it gets because they care so much less than anybody else in that stadium or has ever spent time on that campus. Enjoy playing six minutes a game in Lebanon next year Jameel.
Seriously?! STFU and go home. ******, how can you say that about a player? Much less a player who is hurt. I don't care how they play, you're a terrible fan to say that he should jsut go home. What a crappy person. Get a life and stop trashing individual players.
