Here is a brief post-game interview with Monte and Georges. Georges has a funny response about being asked if he has a message for the Hawkeyes. That occurs at 2:25 in the video. Thanks, Hawkeyes!

No offense to whoever made that video, but the still of Niang is not the most flattering.

Quite the contrast with those 2 - down to earth humility vs cocky swagger. Maybe Niang just hates the Hawkeyes.

Well he said earlier this week that the Hawk fans are the worst hecklers, so he probably does hate them. ;) Monte really wasn't asked about Iowa though. Georges was.

In all honesty, I think a lot of it is just Georges having fun. But I would certainly enjoy it if he really did hate the Hawks. Nothing wrong with that :)

Not certain but I think at the end one of the interviewers said "God I'm gonna miss you."

Word.

No ****. Not only is he an elite player. He is just a ton of fun.

Georges is the type of guy who in 10 years when he is inducted into the Hall of Fame at Iowa State, he'll come back and there will be a cylcones.tv interview with him that will have all of us laughing our ***** off.

If I remember right, Hawk fans were downright abusive to Georges on twitter a few years back (and probably still are now) so I don't blame him for hating them.

Yep. Georges said he was quitting twitter this year so he could just concentrate on basketball and avoid negativity. Who in the hell would direct negativity towards Georges other than the mouth breathers out east?

George is the definition of a player you love to have on your ream, but hate him if he isn't

Woodbury, I think he... Oh wait....I thought you said hate him if he is on your team and love him if he's not. My bad, carry on.
