NCHoosier32 Posted January 22, 2021 Report Share Posted January 22, 2021 So although I think people fluctuate way too much from too low after one loss to too high after 1win... I will play the optimistic viewpoint game... Rutgers is really spiraling downward. Logically, we could have expectations to win those 2. NW pretty much is as well. MSU twice doesn't look all that scary. Maybe we'll beat Purdouche one of these days. That would be 6 more wins, and really a pretty solid season overall. Thing is, as shown last night along with how we have looked vs the lower level B1G teams, logic doesn't mean much. We'll probably lose all of those games and beat Mich, Illini, OSU, and MN. Gonna be a crazy ride. Here's to hoping I continue to be wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone on here was very upset and questioning Archie. Just think we could enjoy a win and not have a negative tone. I’ve been fed up with Archie way before that Purdue loss.. I wasn’t on here because it wasn’t worth my time. I’m on here right now just to see how optimistic everyone is going to be after one big win.

Sorry but I’m not going to hold some past mistake that happened 19 years against him.. time to move on. If the guy can win which his resume clearly shows it.. then why not hire him?

He won at Southwest Missouri state with dogs*** and he was never an Iowa guy to begin with and I can’t imagine how hard it is to get guys to come to Iowa.. also being at UCLA is very hard.. PAC 12 basketball is terrible and they don’t play any defense out there.. all the guys he recruited only cared about getting to the league..

go_iu_bb Posted January 22, 2021 Report Share Posted January 22, 2021 3 hours ago, tdhoosier said: I said at the beginning of the season that the most important player on this team was Rob. And I’m still sticking to that. When Rob plays confident and aggressive we are a different team. In addition to that.... I’m glad we got a glimpse of Geronimo can do. I don’t expect it on a nightly basis but hopefully he turned a corner. I’m glad Race just BATTLED last night. Garza looked like he had enough; it looked like he wanted to go to bed in the final minutes of the game and call it a night. I’m glad Al hounded Bohannon. Still drives me crazy with some of his ‘passes to nobody’ but great game on defense. Last, I’m glad CAM had the guys ready and was able to turn things around after it looked like Iowa was getting anything they wanted in the first half. Happy for him, he needed that one. Phinisee is important but a big concern I have about him is FT shooting. He's a mediocre FT (career 67.7%) who has shown he can shoot better than that by shooting 72.5% last season. This season he's pretty bad at 62.1%. That in itself is concerning but what really gets to me is when he misses. In multiple games, including last night, he has gone to the line in crunch time and missed both FT. His defense really helps the team but missing 2 FT down the stretch can really hurt. Granted, he's not the only one shooting FT poorly but he seems to be the one who most consistently misses near the end of the game. Maybe it's due to tired legs from everything else he's been doing the rest of the game, I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying Archie is definitely the guy but firing him for a coach who is incredibly unimpressive would be so stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
