Our offense can't operate at 20% from 3. We need to be 30 or greater for any chances based on what ever you call our offense.

There is normally one game from the tourney that stands out above all the others. This will probably be the one of the weekend. Lead Changes , ties, swings. I hope we come out on top. 1 win is better than sharing the bus with Bradley
I will take this back. There will be a better game this weekend. Fire up the Peoria Charter, save on gas and share the uber with Bradley.

We really need to talk about turnovers at so many key moments. SIU played today in the first game with lots of sophomores and looked poised. Mercifully our season is over. Dan needs to go.

Hopefully whatever this era of ISU basketball is over after this game. The offense has been the same since Muller has been here, jack 3's and hope for the best.
I doubt it will be over. But isn't this similar to what Golden State does? It's what all the kids want to do. I'm not saying it shouldn't be over, but I wonder if this is the way the game itself is moving. I mean a 6'10 guy has ruled over the MVC for 4 years, and now we got another one to deal with for 3 or 4 more years in this kid from Northern Iowa and then the kid at Southern didn't look too bad for a Freshman.

Another Thursday night loss in St. Louis. So many stupid shots and turnovers. I have no idea what they work on in practice. Very poorly coached team.

Too typical game, silly turnovers, too many offensive rebounds, missed 3's at the critical point of the game, unable to make plays at crunch time which up to another loss,

Waited until the season ended to post on here...
Hopefully that was the final nail in the coffin for a man who never adapted to coaching today's college player. Never changed his style of play, because of stubbornness and never accepted blame for much of anything. His mentor (Stallings) went down in flames and so has he. His approach to coaching, recruiting, and leading was all outdated. It's well past time to go. The overall lethargy of ISU Basketball needs a change. Come on AD Brennan. Let's do this.

Sitting in my car getting ready to head home after another embarrassing performance by ISU at Arch Madness. We can say we are young and make whatever excuses.

UNI is young as well and I don’t think I’ve ever seen in person one team so physically outmatched as we were tonight. We either need our players to find the weight room or find better player.

A sad pathetic chapter in ISU basketball.

And my final thought for now. 3 games in a row against a team without its all-American, who is a bottom tier team, and got out coached 3 times.

I will admit when I'm wrong and yep.. I was WRONG. At least I put money on the birds with points for $10k.... losing $20k straight up hurts though. Anyways,
man the officiating was ridiculous tonight but still shouldn't be our excuse. We didn't hit the shots when we needed it most. And we just looked like we never believed as a team that we were going to win. Did anyone sense this watching the last 6 minutes? Guys seemed like true freshmen. I wonder what Dan will say about this one...

Other than the fact that golden state has won 3 nba championships in the past decade and have had steph curry and klay Thompson, then yes this is similar.
