Let me explain my comment.  You obviously weren't paying attention.
 
I suspect that the players sometimes play with the media and "just
make stuff up" and then laugh when it's printed or aired.  This is
what I've heard from a friend of a friend.  Admittedly, not very
reliable, but somewhat realistic in light of other responses to
too many cameras and questions.
 
You are certainly entitled to your beliefs, but I'd recommend that
you ignore the trash talk.  As any coach will tell you,  it's 
only meant to get your goat and distract you from doing your best.

Subject: ISU's problems so far/Iowa's (success?)
Organization: Microware Systems Corp., Des Moines, Iowa
Date: Fri, 18 Dec 1992 19:21:42 GMT

I`d like to offer my opinions on ISU's problems so far this year. It's not 
hard to figure out why ISU is struggling this year when with the same # of
practices and games last year, we were scoring at a 100 pt per game clip.
The problem seems to be individualistic play by our guards. Most people say
it's the rebounding, but ISU has never had a good rebounding team. Our starting
guards seem to hold and dribble the ball a lot more than getting it and making 
the quick pass to the cutter, or running up the court.

Sorry Iowa fans, but I think our guards secured the loss to Iowa more than
Iowa contributed to the victory. Michalik was 4-4 with 3, 3 point field goals
in the 1st 5 minutes and got only a couple shots the rest of the game. And it
wasn't like he wasn't open the rest of the time. Justus Thigpen shot
miserably, many times not even hitting the rim on his shots. The team played
much better when Thigpen and/or Bayless was on the bench and Brown was in
there. Every time we got a rebound, Ron Bayless would walk the ball up the court.
Last year we were up and down with a layup before the other team could say 
"fast break". And the fact of the matter is with our rebounding ability, if we 
don't get our fast break going and start playing with more urgency, it's going 
to be a very long Big Eight season.

I'm definitely not an Iowa basher, just skeptical. Don't guage your team's
chances for a Big 10 championship on what you saw in the ISU game. Our team
is really struggling right now. Iowa has definitely not been tested. And with
the schedules Indiana, Michigan, and the rest have played so far, I'd have
to say Iowa will be lucky to pull off a 4th place finish.

This season is not without hope for ISU, however. The facts remain. I saw them
last year. We have essentially the same team. Once our guards get back to playing
unselfish, fast break basketball, I'm sure that ISU will be among the nation's
elite.

Funny, in my experience such comments are used by coaches of other
teams to motivate.  What you're saying seems to apply more to the
trash talk during games.

This is odd.  I was thinking of replying to this guy's ravings, saying that
UNC looked far better than Michigan so far.  Reese and Lynch look like they're
playing up to their considerable potential, Montross is steady, and they have
a lot of players that are ready to contribute off the bench.  They no longer
have a one-man offense, and their defense is suffocating.  I'm not willing to
vote for them as #1 in the country, seeing as how they haven't beaten any top
ten teams yet, but it looks like they won't lose too many this year.
  Then I thought, "Am I MAD? Me defending **Carolina**?"

You sure about that?  Minnesota beat Illinois that year while they were #1.  I don't remember Gill missing that one.  

Anyway, that was a banner year for the Gophers, beating U of I, Iowa, tOSU

You are dead wrong!  First of all, When Frieter was in Michigan, the team
practices and drills were conducted by Fisher and Boyd. Frieter decided about
the game strategy. The sh*t hit the fan when Michigan lost their last home
game against Illinois, and the fans went berzerk, demanding Frieter to go.

When Bo Shcembeckler (sp?) asked Fisher before the 1989 NCAA tournament
"Fisher can you coach this team?", Fisher new he could, as he ran the plays.
Now, let me remind you that the TV commentators were saying during the
tournament.  "Fisher pulls all the right buttons and calls during the games".

1) In the game with Xavier, he used the "unused" by Frieter D. Calip,
   who had 2 key jumpers to put a very close game away.
2) In the game with N. Carolina called key timeouts when players got
   winded. He pulled the right substitutions against the master of subbing.
3) The game with Virginia was a blowout, but in the game with Illinois
   even though Michigan lost to them twice in the season, he was able to
   control and slow down the pace by employing a "set offence"  game
   against the flying Illini, instead of running along with them.

> Michigan fans, he's still doing nothing.  Now, however, something is needed.

Coming from a duke fan, this is a complement :-). Just remember what Fisher
said after the recent game with Duke. "I am sick and tired of listening
about Duke. I just hope we meet again sometime deep in the tournament.."

Why don't you just compare Michigan State and Virginia while you're at it?
You can't compare the No. 1 team in the ACC to the No. 3 team in the Big 10.
Iowa (who is No. 1) would roll over Wright State by 50 points, too.
Another thing - any team can beat another team on any given day.  If Maryland
beats Virginia, can we conclude that Iowa is better than Virginia since
Iowa beat Maryland 53-50 this year?  I think not.  You can't use this logic.

Wisconsin            101
Charleston Southern   72

Michael Finley led a balanced Wisconsin attack with 18, while Darnell
Sneed scored 25 for Charleston Southern.

I was almost embarassed to post this, but I stated that I would try to
cover every Wisconsin game that I am around here for, so for better or for
worse, I posted this.

This was pretty much a glorified pick-up game.  I only caught the last 15
minutes, because I forgot about it until then.  Not a bad game to miss...
Charleston Southern was simply outmatched.  I saw Sneed get 14 of his
points, as there was a race at the end for the Badgers to score 100, and
thus not much defense.  It's hard to do player analysis in a game like
this, because you simply can't tell much.

The only thing I noticed is that Louis Ely got a few charges for lowering
his shoulder, which happens about every game.  I wonder if anybody on the
coaching staff has noticed this, and has tried to fix it.  Looooooouuuu
would be a lot more effective without all those fouls.

One good thing: we get $1 off at McDonalds (well, I guess some of you would
call that a bad thing) whenever Wisconsin scores over 100.  Brian saves
some money on dinner.

I will not be covering the Detroit Mercy, Alcorn State, Fairfield, or
Marquette games, as I will be out of town.  Randy is on his own in getting
the Badger scores for the Big 10/11 report.

No kidding.  A Gene Keady offense scoring 129 points?  Somebody must be
living on planet "Z".

I was wondering if you IU folks were even going to dignify this post with a
response.  I would like nothing more than that score, but it still irritates
the hell out of me when Knight gets portrayed as this tempermental ogre who
is always throwing chairs.  I've seen him only throw a chair once, and I
was at the Michigan game where he tried to pick up a chair, only to find it
chained down, so he just stomped on it.

We all know that if Knight was down by this many points, he would either
already be long gone, or would just be sitting back, sulking.  He only gets
excited during close games.
