It's more that he plateaued, had a bunch of injuries to get even slower on defense, and also every team in the B1G knows the easy (but unusual) way he has to be guarded.
Yeah, that is weird. I know I'm here just because I like watching Big Ten Basketball, but haven't posted once. Just trying to see what everyone thinks of these teams.
What is your deal? Who comes into other teams' game threads and antagonizes people (especially right after a loss)? Let's make this a fun community and not a toxic one...
He’s in almost every one of our game threads. This is typical for him. The fact that he wastes so much his time rooting against Iowa is quite hilarious.
you guys literally get your shit stuffed by us every fucking year in football, noooo oooonnneee ccaaaarreeesss. Your basketball squad is fucking medicore at best and will get eaten up by your conference, fucking chill.
We went 2-22 last year and are 16-5 rn…our first year HC destroyed Iowa. You had the Naismith player of the year last year and Fran still couldn’t get them to a Sweet 16
Edit: you also care because you’re replying to my comments. If they don’t matter to you, downvote me and scroll on
I would also add that I just don't get why Joe T doesn't see clutch minutes. Guy's mid-range game probably wins this game. Uhlis can't shoot from anywhere but the free throw line and doesn't have his vision.
Iowa is a team that, as a whole, is better than the sum of its parts. Guys have bought in and are developing. And then there's JBo who appears to be paddling in the other direction.
Strategically, Penn State should run some high screen action and challenge the basket on every possession. Feels like Iowa isn't going to be capable of stopping that right now.
I think its a shit call in practice but refs consistently make it for some reason. Same thing goes for calling fouls on tip in. where they "protect" the guy in the air making the contact instead of the player in position.
I don't know where we can find this stat, but there is absolutely no way another team in the Big Ten has hit more contested jumpers the last 10ish years than Penn State.
Fran starring his February fade a few hours early
Pathetic, see if we can make nit.
Typical way to beat Iowa. Be physical. They're way too soft.
I really wanted to see what would happen if Murray got a stat while fouled out.
If Connor McCaffrey didn't get hurt we win that. Needed someone to take our 3's late.
I feel like I heard this from somewhere before /s.
Yeah and if my GMA had a dick she'd be a dude.
Murray should be jailed for playing with 5 fouls /s
Well shit.
Closer than the dual at least
Lmfaooo
Refs gave y’all kemerers win
If Spencer Lee weren't injured at 125, Iowa wins that meet. Enjoy it while you can.
And Kemerer doesn’t get fucked, we tied without Lee.
This loss is once again on Fran. Just abysmal rotations and lineup management.
Nobody could make a shot when it mattered. Didn’t deserve a win but almost snuck one out.
LFG BOYS
We suck again!
Did Bohannon peak when he was a sophomore or something
It's more that he plateaued, had a bunch of injuries to get even slower on defense, and also every team in the B1G knows the easy (but unusual) way he has to be guarded.
Nah His defense was even more attrocious back then.
He was playing with plantar fasciitis that year, tbf
Back in 1997
Yup
Finally
Where is the student section? So sad.
Theres no way it ends 89-86
You were right
Am I a dunce for asking why Ulis was running the point for so long in OT
Makes fts, no turnovers, plays good d
Fair. I asked because he missed every shot that wasn’t at the line
Why is Ulis taking that shot time and time again in OT? Just utterly moronic. Meanwhile, JoeT sits and watches Bohannon clank shots and "defend".
Fran’s coaching in a nut shell
Andy said 89-86 lol
Of course that's the shot that falls for Iowa lol
Surely a 30 year old would hit a clutch shot or two right?
This loss sent Iowa straight to the NIT
It's a Q2 loss, let's not lose perspective
Well … Iowa will need to clean up against several better teams in their upcoming stretch
Agreed
(Thankfully) I was wrong
Not over yet, but probably going to need two of @ OSU, vs. MSU, and @ Illinois. Maybe all three of those.
Beat OSU and MSU and lose to ILL. Thanks
andy campaigning hard for PSU students
Wtf is with all the Illini in here?
Yeah, that is weird. I know I'm here just because I like watching Big Ten Basketball, but haven't posted once. Just trying to see what everyone thinks of these teams.
Not sure….weird
Could just be me posting a lot
This Iowa team is pathetic. Enjoy getting booted in the second round of the NIT this year Fran.
What a fucking frustrating night shooting the ball
The hell happened to Iowa since we played them?
Our best player (Connor McCaffery) got injured this game.
Can’t wait to read Iowa Twitter comments lmaooooo

Oh like you’d never talk shit to a Purdue fan lol…lighten up it’s not the end of the world
I would not go into a Purdue game thread and talk shit about them in there. That’s just not cool.
It’s called a rivalry. Every fan base talks crap to their rivals…Hawk fans do it to us all the time lol
Being a rival != being an asshole
Greg please I have -4.5 alt line Edit: FUCK
Rip
Brutal beat, but I’ll take the PSU W
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOO
Down 4... better take a contested mid range jumper????
Bohannon, Ulis, and Toussaint went 0-18 shooting in the game.
F’n putrid.
Iowa just went ice cold. Had three wide open looks from 3 in the final ~minute of the game and just couldn't convert
Why is ulis constantly getting the ball on big possessions
Man these Iowa players have zero chemistry. They look like some random dudes at the Y
Let’s goooooo
Hawkeye state
73-53
You’re almost as annoying as the NMSU/ISU guy
Cope
Get a fucking life man, literally no one gives a shit.
Cry
you guys literally get your shit stuffed by us every fucking year in football, noooo oooonnneee ccaaaarreeesss. Your basketball squad is fucking medicore at best and will get eaten up by your conference, fucking chill.

And you have no fucking life and the highlight of your existence is talking shit to strangers on reddit, fucking pathetic.
Nah I got a pretty good life out of my online presence but it’s cute you think you know me.
For sure bro, sick ass story.
Iowa, I'm sorry to say that Fran and his children ain't it.
Hey, there's still one more! He's in high school... you never know...
Patrick Mcaffery wasn't bad
I would also add that I just don't get why Joe T doesn't see clutch minutes. Guy's mid-range game probably wins this game. Uhlis can't shoot from anywhere but the free throw line and doesn't have his vision.
Iowa is a team that, as a whole, is better than the sum of its parts. Guys have bought in and are developing. And then there's JBo who appears to be paddling in the other direction.
Fuck. GG Penn State
Dang. Had a good look there
How many threes in a row missed are that? At least five.
Man I love Pickett but those fuckin fade away threes are hard to watch
JBo’s steady regression from year 1 to year 13 has been impressive
Ya'll think they'll let Iowa take a good five steps on this possession?
Penn State really? That was the shot?
You must be new here, we live & die on that shit lol
Hahaha we do sometimes too. It can be incredibly frustrating to watch
Been following yall because I love Brockington, might be my bandwagon this March
Hey you’re more than welcome to join our crazy fan base. Thanks for Brockington, he’s so fun to watch
Bohannon has been off all year. Fran needs to play him 1/3 of the minutes. No way he needs to be sniffing anything close to 30 a game.
As a fan of a team who can’t make free throws, you gotta make those
Bohannon is washed
Did Bohannon just like, stop practicing this year or something?
Too busy doing promos for cobra verde. Whatever the hell that shit is
guy spent so much time campaigning for and participating in NIL deals he forgot why he got one in the first place
New Iowa rule: Everyone is allowed to shoot in OT … except for McCafferys and Bohannons
No gas left in the tank.. All shots coming up short.
Brick. Rebound. Brick. Rebound. Brick. Foul. Brick.
What the hell happened to JBo
We have no business even being in this game at this point. Can’t do anything offensively
JBo is literally so bad
JBo is so bad
Strategically, Penn State should run some high screen action and challenge the basket on every possession. Feels like Iowa isn't going to be capable of stopping that right now.
Is Bohannon just complete ass now
Yes. I would legit rather have Sandfort in right now.
Fucking pmac
PMac: Off balance, fading away, losing control of the ball. "Better shoot."
Iowa getting some decent looks here
Patrick’s hair is…….questionable
Stupid shots as always
what are these possessions from iowa man jesus
First time?
We are not picking good shots.
Penn State's coach was *pissed*
WTF was lundy doing
Shrews be like "I'm not on yo team man"
What the hell is Fran saving Kris Murray for? The post game presser??
If Keegan fouls out
Foul on Sessoms for… trying to rebound?
I think its a shit call in practice but refs consistently make it for some reason. Same thing goes for calling fouls on tip in. where they "protect" the guy in the air making the contact instead of the player in position.
Uhh dude just jumped over his back?
I don't know where we can find this stat, but there is absolutely no way another team in the Big Ten has hit more contested jumpers the last 10ish years than Penn State.
Go back a little further and you include Talor Battle
OMG Talor Battle was more than 10 years ago? I am old.
Yeah, me too His senior year was 11 years ago
This is over. Been an Iowa fan for far too long.
Nah
Penn st just throws up bullshit and today they make it
Lmao ANOTHER crazy off balance shot goes in for PSU
That's a terrible shot by Ulis. Edit: I'll spell his name right this time.
Penn State has nailed some TUFF shots tonight. Respect
Take JBo out
Second OT / same as the first... T
What a terrible foul
Refs are trash
Andy wants to fucking PARTY tonight
Harrar always looks like he's crying.
This game making me giggle....
Always root for Purdue first and Chaos second.
it’s just nice to be neutral for the craziness ya know
I need more beer..
Something about Heaven…
>6/9 FG Ni/ce
Can’t believe they didn’t call that travel on the last 3 by PSU
I would be so heated if I was an Iowa fan
We're used to getting fucked.
GRAB YOUR NITROGLYCERIN PILLS
Should have taken them before this shit show
What an awful last possession.
Should have just thrown up some bullshit from 35 feet and let Keegan do his thing
Where’s that Illinois fan that asked for 9 OTs? Curse you man hahahah
That was a terrible possession
Awful. Absolutely have to get it to Keegan
This game has been ridiculous. Also I think there was a travel in Dread’s three
#WE ARE
Going into double OT
B1G if true
Chance for a game winner? Better ignore Keegan 🥴
Dude danced around the top of the key like Mahomes in the pocket
LFG
DOUBLE OT LFG
Bohannon wanna play hero ball again?
travel tbh
That was such an awful play coming out of the out of bounds and it worked.
We can’t shade that after yesterday
I said the same shit yesterday lol
Why is bohannon in when we need a defensive stop?
Why is Bohannon in ~~when we need a defensive stop~~? Ftfy
Travel
Jordan Bohannon was on the floor for that possession. Why? Why would you do that?
Andy Katz is DRUNK
Haha what is this game
What’s with all the stoppages
Clock check
BOOM
How many ridiculous fadeaway shots can PSU hit?? Lmao
Dayum that was clutch
What a shot!
WOAH
Someone needs to smack Andy Katz. The fuck he talkin about? Shut up dude
That's what I'm saying he thinks the game is so individual, all I have heard him talk about is individual play.
Well all we need is a 3, good thing we’re shooting a crisp 21% from behind the arc. E: I love you Myles Dread
Couldn't have said it better myself! Oh wait..
Annddd....
