I suggest everyone either stop going to home games or wear brown bags over your head at the game. That might get someone’s attention

If ISU wins an ncaa game in the next 35 years, that'll be 2 in 70 years.

I want to love ISU basketball again. I can’t believe I suffer through this. Muller has officially destroyed the program. Sad

 

[stats]

I think the momentum started to shift in ISU's favor the last minute or so of the game. The clock just ran out early on us. That's all.

No need to harp on the negative because everyone can see what the problems are. Between lackadaisical defense and poor ball control coupled with a kid who is having the game of his career, we’ll have a large mountain to climb in the second half.

The good news is... Abdou played a really good first half. When he got a steal and took the ball the length of the court for an easy lay in- I really liked that. He’s got a good block and shooting well from the foul line.

A coaching change is not being made this season. If they did, the keys would be handed to Jones, who many of you will point to his North Dakota win-loss record and scoff. So, I say give it up. But you do you.

.
But if you shriek hysterically 10 times in every thread, more good posters will leave.

So they've got that going for them.

Well, 3 good things about this game: (1) we held the nation’s leading scorer under his average, (2) we held them under 100, and best of all, (3) i saved $7.

But if they win 2, then that'll be 3 in 70 years.

Define good poster??

 

[RBFANTOO]

A new low in ISU MBB history!
:shock:

 

[Birdswin]

At this point, what could really be worse??? Muller is done - the team is done with Muller. A responsible person in management would do the right thing. We will see if there is any responsible people in management.

Merry Christmas

Torres and Idowu...wow. Just wow.

Not going to happen. There is no one in charge with the stones to clean up this mess.

 

[CaliRdBrd]

Let them play without a coach? See what happens.

The bright spots: Keith (20 points on 9 shots) and Abdou had nice games. Tone tried really hard to guard Jackson in the second half.
The dark spots: Everything else.

I’m not unreasonable thinking ISU should refund my donation, but I wouldn’t mind a $7 check in the mail for purchasing this game. :lol:

Yeah - everyone needs to start emailing Dietz - Lyons is a waste of time. But there is hope with Dietz at the helm to push a change. I think Dan even knows his luck (and love) has run out and it will be time to turn over the reigns to someone who can build a strong program without having to go JUCO or transfer routes. I do think Horne, Reeves and Ndyie are good recruits. But he crashed when he took flier on Yarborogh and then relied on transfers without recruiting 4 year players like kids above

E-mailed Dietz at the end of last year, he claimed Muller was doing a great job. Maybe with more people contacting him he might wake up,

Great job at what? Maybe he's a great backyard badminton player?

I saw him a couple of months ago and he said this is an evaluation yr for Dan. So yes I believe he is aware of the lack of success and the frustration among alums. I am sure Chris Highland in Development is feeling the pain of having a hoops program in disarray

No idea if Highland is good or bad at his job. Evaluation year scares me. It makes it seem like they haven’t been evaluating him.

Who the hell is going to step up and be our TWills. 41points I don't think so. If you are not going to the defensive boards...use your ass to keep guys from crashing ...otherwise you can be a spectator on the bench. Use the Christmas Break to reflect if you are Division 1 player and team that will compete in the second season of Conference play. Show the fans you are going to protect the home court. A new seat and a beer does not do it for me!
