Oops! I Haven’t kept up now only $2,500 still 12 months.Well, you may want to be careful speeding anyway.
The penalty for 81 MPH anywhere in Virginia is $3,000 and 12 months in jail…
Yes, we play every game just like St Joe.Iowa is totally different from November, but of course the Spiders haven't changed AT ALL. 🙄
I think I heard they don't.anyone know if Iowa plays the same as they did in November?
Or the overtime of miss stateYep, if I were Iowa, I would definitely only look at the video from Utah State, St. Joe's and Maryland.
Anyone know where the Richmond PG ranks this season in steals? I think I’ve seen that posted once or twice. Anyway, you know when someone breaks out the smack talk about the relative geography of the states it’s time to play.anyone know if Iowa plays the same as they did in November?
lol, I hear ya. the most embarrassing trash talk I've ever read. I hope it's just guys with a really dry sense of humor.Anyway, you know when someone breaks out the smack talk about the relative geography of the states it’s time to play.
Hey Iowa, I don't even like corn so screw that, could care less about Keegan Bluff Murray Steak or twins, brothers, sons. The two ugliest colors on earth are black and yellow, and it's not gold it's yellow like them damn Kansas sunflowers. You're going down and going home. Go Spiders.lol, I hear ya. the most embarrassing trash talk I've ever read. I hope it's just guys with a really dry sense of humor.
ok, that's better.Hey Iowa, I don't even like corn so screw that, could care less about Keegan Bluff Murray Steak or twins, brothers, sons.

i am happy you have no Fredrick and no Nunge , I like Nunge game
Not sure about season, but you can analyze this while waiting for the game.Anyone know where the Richmond PG ranks this season in steals? I think I’ve seen that posted once or twice.

Please, not Trump again.Ya but they wouldn’t have made the USA like the founding fathers did. We get all the credit. Greatest American ever is from our state.
Wow, that's an angry person right there. The Iowa poster simply stated that a win on the road against UVA was a good win for Iowa and that our lineups have changed considerably since then. Based on Richmond's schedule, I'm guessing that a road victory at UVA, even if down a bit (they did beat Duke, btw) would be better than road wins at UNI or George Washington. Regardless, Iowa has been playing it's best basketball of the season beginning in February, but anything can happen in the tourney. Go Hawks!Go shove some corn up your ass! You would be elated to probably see the frickin ocean for once in your life. Must be rough living in iowa.
Yeplol, I hear ya. the most embarrassing trash talk I've ever read. I hope it's just guys with a really dry sense of humor.
Love the user name.Anyone know where the Richmond PG ranks this season in steals? I think I’ve seen that posted once or twice. Anyway, you know when someone breaks out the smack talk about the relative geography of the states it’s time to play.
He currently ranks # 1 in the nation at 3.09 per game.Love the user name.
Well said, 97. I, too, feel that Michigan was undeserving. Patrick does some things well and can be a second scorer at times, but he can also be off and not factor much in a game. His length is a plus. When Keegan is off, which hasn't happened often this year, Kris has come up big. We're all hoping he'll be the next big thing at Iowa next year. Lastly, a big key to Iowa's resurgence has been the move of Bohannon back to PG and inserting Perkins into the lineup. Perkins has played really well, plays great defense, and isn't afraid to get into the lane for tough shots and rebounds. Defensive efficiency during the first couple months was a major deficiency, but has risen into the 70s in the past month plus. I believe we were around 150 earlier in the year.As Penn State is my second favorite team (yeah, I know they are brutal), I watch a fair amount of Big 10 basketball. Iowa is legit, my heart sank when I saw our draw. Keegan Murray is a beast, leading scorer in the Big 10, can make shots from anywhere, clutch player. Bohannon is a super senior who has been around for ever, also big time shot maker. Coach son, Pat Mcafferty is a really good player as well. Won the Big 10 tournament, so they come in with just as much confidence as us.
I know some don't think the Big 10 is all of that but the committee felt differently giving them 9 bids (Michigan was undeserving, in my opinion).
So, I think it is a bad draw and a bad match up for us. That said, Gilly and company showed they belong and I'm counting them out. They are playing inspired basketball. I do think Gilly is the key. Big 10 is filled with big athletic dudes, pretty confident Iowa hasn't seen much of the super quick small guard that he will bring to the table. If he plays like he did against VCU and Davidson, were in this game until the end.
We are both on a clear collision course, May the best team prevail.As a Hawkeye, I can assure you:
a) we respect Richmond and especially your tourney history (Dick Tarrant & Bielien)
b) we have a shaky tourney history
c) we've improved incredibly over the past 2 months
Best of luck to you. This Hawkeye team seems special, but maybe Richmond is, too.
absolutely we need to use it for bulletin board material!Jay Bilas from ESPN wrote an article picking every game in the tourney. This was what he wrote for our matchup:
Iowa can really score, and the Hawkeyes' defense has greatly improved over the past month, as evidenced by the Big Ten tournament title win against Purdue. Iowa rarely turns the ball over and has a superstar in Keegan Murray, who averages 23.6 points and is one of the most versatile players in the nation. Jordan Bohannon has made close to 80 3s on 38% shooting and is the Big Ten's all-time leader in 3-point shooting.
Richmond has Grant Golden inside and Jacob Gilyard, one of the best defenders and steals guys in the country. Still, Iowa is better and has Murray, a lottery pick.
Winner: Iowa
He gave us one sentence. ONE SENTENCE. Our “paragraph” being a fifth of the size is one thing, but then using the second sentence of our two sentence “paragraph” to say Iowa is better. Does that piss anybody else off? Pin it on the ****ing bulletin board Mooney
Corn is actually a mostly worthless vegetable. Your body can't digest it. It causes flatulence, indigestion, diarrhea, tooth decay and osteoporosis. And it gave us high fructose corn syrup, which is horrible for us.
Basically, the state of Iowa is trying to kill all of us. Screw you, Iowa! We're going to take back America in Buffalo tomorrow!
Hard to argue with the article. My biggest concern is early foul trouble, especially Burton.2022 NCAA Tournament bracket: Which team will pull off the No. 12 vs. No. 5 upset this March Madness
There's been a No. 12 vs. No. 5 upset in 32 of the 36 Tournaments since the 1985 expansion, including three in 2019www.cbssports.com
Well you could try to argue with "...and Tyler Burton is a terrific defender"Hard to argue with the article. My biggest concern is early foul trouble, especially Burton.
Lol true, at least they didn’t mention a well coached team. Saved me from a good puke.Well you could try to argue with "...and Tyler Burton is a terrific defender"
we weren't invited to the last 9 tournaments.
I can't imagine we need extra motivation from Jay Bilas.
Good point. Pretty clear from his comments postgame, Gilly was on his a "I'm a going to shove it right up those message board warriors a***es who don't think I am good enough. In that vein, Gilly, your welcome, and I think your too short to ball against these Big 10 guys.There’s a clear difference between Gilyard when he feels he’s been wronged vs “regular” Gilly. He created his own adversity in the A10 tourney, now he doesn’t have to. He and the team are being disrespected by every pundit there is. He’s a top 3 player in the A-10 when he has motivation. Without it he’s not in the top 10. Show him everything.
I guarantee you the constant disrespect from the media is going to do a lot more to fire Gilly and the team up than them just all being aware of the fact the program hasn’t made it in a decade.

Hang on. Soon basketball thread is gonna include comparison of math, English, and biology - UR vs Iowa.Anyone know where the Richmond PG ranks this season in steals?

Bilas may know basketball, but his on air delivery is some of the most obnoxious statements and attitude of commentators I’ve watched through the years.we weren't invited to the last 9 tournaments.

Best I could do on short notice...Hang on. Soon basketball thread is gonna include comparison of math, English, and biology - UR vs Iowa.
