College hoops: how 'bout them spartans, Iowanian! - Page 2

Missouri also looked good tonight, against a quality DePaul team, but MSU's manhandling of Florida was impressive.

Can't wait til the hawkeyes come to town!

Watch out for the Wichita State Shockers of the Missouri Valley!

Just kidding!

But hey, they are 4-1 with victories over two Big 12 teams.

Spott · 12-07-2000, 12:53 PM

Didn't they beat OSU last night? That's a pretty big win considering OSU blew out KU twice last year & MU once.

Yes, I didn't get to see the game though.

MI:

yeah, detroit, whatever...

There was a day when my Hawkeyes had a guy named George Raveling, and Alford is that kind of recruiter.

Raveling recruited 6 guys from Flint while he was here, including one Roy Marble. That team ALMOST beat UNLV, the year they threw the championship game against Duke.

The Hawkeyes have a decent recruiting history in your state, and the day will come when it starts happening again. Enjoy it now while it lasts...

Iowa, I know a hawk team that sucks but I think they play north of Lawrence.... [img]http://www.chiefsplanet.com/ubb/tongue.gif[/img]

Mi_chief_fan · 12-07-2000, 01:21 PM

Just 1 difference Parker: the schools here have been known to win a national title or 2 with the talent they recruit.

Iowa got our Mr. Basketball one year, Kenyon Murray, Battle Creek Central high school. That same year, Michigan's "fab 5" were making their 2nd straight championship game appearance.

Come talk some smack when your better prepared.

Spott · 12-07-2000, 01:21 PM

I agree with Iowanians great point in #18.

Per post #22, you need to change your tagline or put the glue BACK down. Iowanian, you too.

I have to continue I guess, for Iowanian's sake...

Raveling was a recruiter. Marble, Gamble, Wright, Armstrong, and Stokes were some of the best ball players ever at Iowa. But we never had any good teams under Raveling. Everybody wanted to be their own superstar.

Under Dr. Tom, "the coach", we had some really good teams, including a couple of Great 8 squads, but seriously look at the talent. Are Jess Settles and some of those guys really that good? No, not really.

Alford combines the recruiting ability of Raveling with the coaching savvy of Davis. In fact, Alford's probably a better coach, because of his age and relationship with the players.

I'm confident that the Alford years are going to remind us alot of when Lute Olson was here...

Too bad the "fab 5" weren't capable of playing team ball...maybe they would have one a couple of championships...

I wasn't talking smack...I was pointing out that, right now, Detroit is advantage Mich/Mich State, but it hasn't always been, nor will it guaranteed be in the future...

mizzou5, mizzou looked pretty good last night...I'd love to see them go far this year...even though I have to say I am more partial to the team from the west...shall go nameless our of respect for Mizzou's win last night....

58Forever · 12-07-2000, 01:29 PM

Fab 5...I seem to remember one of them calling a timeout...ala Gunther Cunningham...at the wrong time...oh, no, rigth time, just no timeouts remaining...

Mi_chief_fan · 12-07-2000, 01:33 PM

Your right about them not playing team ball, but right now Tom Izzo can get any player in Michigan he wants, and gets a few nationally as well(Zach Randolph, for one).

BTW, what other school has done as well recruiting in Detroit? Certainly not Iowa. The only one close is Mizzou.

Iowa isn't even a blip on the radar screen.......

12-07-2000, 01:39 PM

What in the hell is up with these job things...they think i need to go to meetings and do work and stuff????As long as they don't touch my red stapler...or pile any more boxes... ;)

JC,

I'm not sniffing glue..today i'll blame it on niquill(sp) and working on my house too late at night...

I don't claim to know jack about BB...but I don't mind watching the Hawks...

I will however attend the IA/IA State wrestling meet friday night..if things work out....and in THE GREAT SPORT...The State of Iowa owns you all. :p
