Some things about ISU for Virginia lurkers to chew on.

Can all these Wahoos be merged into one single thread to rule them all?

Isn't it amazing how winning two games against double digit seeds makes all the warts go away?

We need Weatherwax to hunt him down.

Paul Jesperson is a great kid. You may be interested in knowing that he was on our team, but couldn't really get any playing time, so he transferred.

Cool. I bet they love him at Northern Iowa.

I love how Tuco makes fun of ISU beating a 12 and a 13 (total of 25) but doesn't think anything of his team beating a 16 and a 9 (total of 25). Dude, nearly everyone in the Sweet Sixteen had an easier than usual road to the second weekend.

He's lucky they didn't have to play Wichita State like last year.

Also, Joel Embiid.

**** Joel Embiid. He's like a ***** who makes all his (NBA) money while laying on his back.

Gotta be nice to him, insults like that will land him on the IR.

Awesome! Thank you. How bout x's and o's? The post above yours said you run a lot of pick and roll? Is the offense based on anybody's offense who I'd have heard of? What do you guys do defensively?

Offense is a lot of pick and roll and isolations for Niang. Besides that we shoot a lot of corner 3's and Niang to McKay alley-oops, but not sure how the latter will work against UVA style defense.

Defense is about 80% mediocre man to man, 20% 2-3 zone. Thomas (6-4) is the best defender (was normally put on Hield and did decent job in 2 of 3 games), Morris is decent when he wants to be, and McKay blocks some shots.
