34 lifted his forearm right into the back of jardine, and gave him the forearm shiver, he's been doing it all game up at the top of the key.

You guys think this is annoying? Imagine the complaining they'd be doing had the game stayed close. And oh lord just think of if ISU won.

Get out of here and let ISU fans enjoy their great season.

Sorry about the loss Sycamores. Congrats on a great season, and I sincerely hope your program continues to grow and you come back as an even bigger threat next year.

You can't be serious. Jardine took a dive. If Walker was doing that all day he was probably trying to get the refs to call it and that's about all the credit I'll give you on that. But Jardine falling had nothing to do with Walker.
 
the future looks very bright for us in the upcoming years. I can not wait to see Odum, Mcwortter and the rest of the young bunch next year :)

Now I am hoping Coach Lansing just doesn't pull a Keno Davis lol


Way to GO BIG BLUE. TIMBER!!!!!

I responded to him once. I'm done. Not worth the trouble if that's all he has to say. Syracuse got away with stuff all night, but that's to be expected. They're the big boys, they're going to get some breaks. Just makes beating them, when you do, all the sweeter!
 
'Cuse is nowhere near close to a NC caliber team. UNC will destroy them if they get past Marquette (sp?). I thought we played pretty well, obviously missed way too many easy shots. Not sure of the final foul tally, but seemed lopsided all night. :sycamores:

Hopefully Lansing and the entire will use this as motivation to kick some MVC butt next year.

Very Good season this year.........Not sure if this game helped with the respect thing........many people who did not watch it will just look at the score and not be impressed.
 
NOTHING to be ashamed of as ISU fans, our future is VERY bright! GREAT job guys, you represented ISU and the MVC well! Syracuse is a VERY good team. Their athleticism is pretty tough
:sycamores:
 
We played very good defense once we settled down, but we just missed too many shots down the stretch. Nevertheless, I'm very proud of our team and even more proud to be a TREE!

Congrats to Carter, Kelly, and Martin on going out champions. It's especially gratifying to see Martin's final two points in a Sycamore uniform was a great two-handed dunk.

I'm already looking forward to next year!

They've been allowing contact the whole tournament. It's probably better than calling touch fouls. We just need to get better, and we will.
 
congrats to Syracuse, you all are good, we ISU fans appreciate the conversations and insight in to your team. Thanks for being civil!

Good game guys. I'm sure you will be back since Odum is only a RS freshman and you had a lot of juniors.

Your fans were very classy on our forum and provided some great insight, especially since you don't have very many youtube videos to see what we were up against.

It was a lot closer than the final will indicate. Up until the last 5 minutes it wasn't decided. I don't mean to brag, but Rick Jackson is the best forward in the Big East and he was very much unstoppable. He did the same to UNC last year and we're hoping he can repeat the performance.
 
Dissapointed but Proud

Couple of good calls by the refs .............. couple of those inside shots fall .......... couple more stops ............and this is a 4 - 6 pt game going into the final 5 minutes.

But hey, great heart, grim determination, some spectacular passes, nice shooting at times ...... we have every reason to feel good about tonight. The physical difference was just too much -- honestly don't think they were any better basketball players -- just bigger.

Hate to see those seniors go -- but boy the changes they have seen in the last four years. Great returning group and some real good ones coming in. Hey, we've been in this situation a couple of times over the past 32 years; but this time let's keep the ball rolling.

Thanks to all the players for a great season.

Could be a great year for ISU next year -- Football and Basketball !

Yeah... the score was not indicative of the game, however, Syracuse was certainly in control all day... We REALLY could not have had a worse draw than what we had...

We shot the 3's well early, then went away from it in the start of the 2nd half - good strategy, it got us back in the game... but we really could have used a couple more in the 2nd half.

Syracuse just shot LIGHTS OUT... and they got every freaking call inside... Even the people watching on MVCFANS were commenting on the officiating against ISU Blue... Oh well, you expect some of that.

I can guarantee that ISU is looking forward to getting back on the court next year!! I know I'll have my season ticket form back in as soon as possible.

They called a lot of touch fouls on us tonight, I thought, but it's not worth complaining. Syracuse played very well and deserved the win.
 
Guys had some serious fight. Good luck with your program, wish you guys all the best.

we can bicker about the scoop thing, but you guys payed well, i think just added strength and experience is all you guys need. you have your floor general for the next 3 years and that will make the difference in making good players into great basketball players. maybe getting a 6-10 guy with some bulk will help you guys, just make sure he has hands. Happy to see a team with good tradition make it back to the tourney. I will keep my eye on odum the rest of his career, hes a good ball player. will be pulling for you guys in the mvc in 11-12

And to think that Indoor Track won MVC Championships, Cross Country is current MVC Champions, Outdoor Track... NCAA Champions in Pole Vault and Weight Throw...Things are looking VERY good for ISU right now..
 
Congratulations to the Sycamores on a great season! Syracuse is an excellent, well-balanced team, and our guys hung in the game up until the last few. Thanks to the Seniors, you played with great emotion and leadership. And with the good group of underclassmen I look forward to watching a first round win next year.
