This is the Jameel we need to make a run. Love having his effort back. Also love the effort of Hallice tonight!

This is the McKay from last year. This is the McKay ISU needs to make a run. Love the effort from him and Cooke today.

Can we just put this version of him in a bottle and open it up in the NCAA tournament?

--rebounds rebounds rebounds
--big dunks
--hustling down the court
--blocks when you can get them, but don't sell out your guarding position

That was the McKay that we all know and loved last year that compliments the offensive and shooting abilities of the rest of the roster so well.

This is the McKay I was expecting all year based on last season. Hustle, boards, blocks, strong above the rim finisher. He was just starting to build some next level buzz going into this season which understandably died the past couple months, he still has a chance to improve his situation beyond ISU a lot if he can help ISU on a tourney run.

Typical. I don't want to see a lot of praise for McKay from losers that bagged on him a couple of weeks ago. You can't have it both ways.

Why not? Praise when he's good, criticism when he's doing dumb things and getting suspended.

McKay will start Monday anyway because of senior night but I think this game earns the starting spot back.

Can we change the thread title to add Cooke? He deserves some public praise too. Today's ISU team, with their help, can beat anyone. Gonna need them for a run.

Yeah when you consider Monte, Burton and Nader all had pretty ho-hum games by their recent standards. Niang had it going but was limited by fouls.

I'll take a solid home win powered by McKay and Thomas with a contribution from Cooke.

So you can only react to someone one way regardless of what they are doing? That would be an interesting way to go through life.

He took his time and went up strong a couple times. Exactly what he needed to do instead of trying to fade away on everything that isn't an alleyoop
