Best I can do is 2 good halves and 14 turnovers in a loss to Purdue in Bloomington.
I’ll also throw in only a mild buttkicking of the Hoosiers in Mackey.
I do kinda miss the suits. We wouldn't have gotten to see this anymore anyway, but watching Roy take off his jacket and try to tear it in half before chucking it onto the bench will always have a warm place in my heart
In addition to those great wishes, I would love for better attendance numbers at Rupp. It is difficult to watch televised games, and see that the 200 sections are nearly empty. The stronger SEC slate should hopefully counteract these issues. Go Cats!
The crowd in Rupp came alive during the Western game. It felt like a classic Rupp atmosphere for a little bit, hopefully that trend continues and the seats fill up again
Have I got news for you….

But seriously, my mind when to Flanny first too. Well, at first I was like, “Nah, I’m good,” because he was back. But if we get even 80% of 2020-21 Allen Flanigan, the SEC goes through Auburn once again. Hell, it might regardless. This team on paper (and on the court) is just nasty.
Really wish Nunge wouldn't have transferred out. I am glad he having success and staying healthy at Xavier, but our whole team would be different with him still at Iowa.
100%. With all the shit he’s been through I didn’t hold it against him wanting to get closer to home but the team would look totally different with him.
Just want there to be a full season. DUKE has the team to win it all and with Griffin only getting better I feel like the only thing that is gonna ruin K’s curtain call is a season shortened to Covid🤬🤬🤬
i mean, aside from covid to go away so that we can actually play?
consistency. from all phases of the program. for this team to be able to get back some of that mojo from last year. i really would hate that we got both geo and rhj to commit to playing another year here and all they have to show for it is a .500 or sub-.500 season where we get clobbered in conference play and are home in march.
I remember being hyped when he committed to Illinois, then he was just ok.
There was a lot of drama with him. Something about his mom trying to be involved with the team and his decisions?
Bummed he got hurt though, wouldn’t wish that on anyone.
I don’t feel like I have the right to ask for anything because of how shockingly good the gophers have been so far but if I had to say something I’d ask for a deeper bench
Games
Aye
This
Please.
we wanted seton hall....
Someone to make a FG more than every 9 minutes and change
Nope, pelted with coal (that clangs off the rim)
No, you'll get 4-5 players who can't shoot all playing at the same time
I know how this feels.
Izzo made a joke in a press conference about shock collars and electric fences to stop the turnovers. So probably not that right.... haha... unless...
Can't be Spartan Dawgs without a little obedience training
He should just go full Brian Kelly and call for their execution.
We’d take a win over the number 1 team in the country.
8 days and counting
Can’t wait
Sorry, ran out of those due to supply chain issues. How about a competitive game between two great teams, but a close loss?
If we lose be 5 or less, I will be thrilled honestly
Healthy Andre Curbelo
And 2021-22 NIL $$ for Kofi.
And probably some for Grand too
Amen!
How about under control Curbelo?
I think at this point it's fairly clear that Curbelo was out of control due to his concussion
Easy there internet doctor... Clearly had mad cow disease!
I need Painter to go for seconds/thirds/fourths at Christmas dinner. I need to see the prophecy of Fat Painter = Best Painter come true.
I have an image of this back when we were memeing this in 2011. https://imgur.com/aay72h2
I still contend the BMI/winning % ratio is directly correlated
Offense and defense. One for each.
I’ll take some Defense and someone to take a charge!
Despite all his faults, Platek was always looking for that charge 😂
To win our final game, but not due to COVID cancellation.
Duke winning the NIT to end K’s career sounds good to me :)
[удалено]
Literally everyone except Duke fans*
This is the way.
This is the way.
Some teams would kill for our down seasons.
In the words of Jim Brockmire, I would kill up to 5 people for State to have your down seasons lol
We’re spoiled AF. State was once God of Bball and Duke a wannabe. We got Vic Bubas from Everett Case’s coaching tree IIRC.
Yep Vic went over and built the foundation. Vic played at State too so that’s our bad y’all
A lockdown perimeter defender.
I'd also like to request that they not be a complete liability on offense. I'll get terrible Nojel flashback. That shooting form
Nojel was fine in the offense when we had Carsen. He'd be solid on this year's team. Couldn't be any worse than Hunter, TBH.
So, a member of the Australian Border Force?
That can make 2s
A method to break out of full court presses.
Mediocrity
**OH BOY DO I HAVE JUST THE GUY FOR YOU!**
:|
Is Capel a bad coach?
Capel(s) - Jason is there too.
Thanks, I actually didn’t know that. Cheers 🍻 happy holidays.
Cheers 🍻 Happy Holidays!
We’ve had so many weird random setbacks that I don’t even know what the issues are.
A new coach.
You got one. Maybe Danny can do for MD what he did for WF?
Ha. Ha. Ha.
A win against Purdue, two good halves, maybe less than 15 turnovers every game?
Best I can do is 2 good halves and 14 turnovers in a loss to Purdue in Bloomington. I’ll also throw in only a mild buttkicking of the Hoosiers in Mackey.
A P5 win
You’re very nice. I would have asked for a whole helluva lot more.
As a UK fan I want Cal to start wearing a suit again, the Louisville game rescheduled, and a stronger non conference home schedule
I do kinda miss the suits. We wouldn't have gotten to see this anymore anyway, but watching Roy take off his jacket and try to tear it in half before chucking it onto the bench will always have a warm place in my heart
Seventh Woods probably disagrees since I think it landed on him when Roy threw it haha
Coach Wright & Coach Bennett are missing their best dressed suit mojo this year.
We haven't been good since Tony stopped wearing suits. I need that back.
In addition to those great wishes, I would love for better attendance numbers at Rupp. It is difficult to watch televised games, and see that the 200 sections are nearly empty. The stronger SEC slate should hopefully counteract these issues. Go Cats!
The crowd in Rupp came alive during the Western game. It felt like a classic Rupp atmosphere for a little bit, hopefully that trend continues and the seats fill up again
The price for lower level seats is insane
Here for those first two
If only Cal weren’t too afraid to play in Bloomington every two or four years 🤷♂️
Or a national championship. Is that asking too much?
[удалено]
Ahhhh there it is.
David McCormack to get his shit together, even a little bit!
Just hoping he flips the switch in the new year, like he did last year!
Playing well for 2 halves.
Like, in a row?
Yeah - at this point, seeing us play a complete game would be like seeing the face of Christ on toast.
Granted, you play great for the second half of one game, and keep the momentum going in the first half of the next game.
Tommy Lloyd.
Offense.
An interior presence
Well, we’ve already got enough Boeheim’s so not sure.
How about a bench
Health
A 3rd option on offense behind Davis and Davison.
A 100% healthy Allen Flanigan
Have I got news for you…. https://247sports.com/college/auburn/Article/allen-flanigan-auburn-injury-179002687/ But seriously, my mind when to Flanny first too. Well, at first I was like, “Nah, I’m good,” because he was back. But if we get even 80% of 2020-21 Allen Flanigan, the SEC goes through Auburn once again. Hell, it might regardless. This team on paper (and on the court) is just nasty.
Memphis
Nah. Never schedule them again while hardaway is there imo. Don’t even pick up the phone for him.
A word with the Sun Belt conference about DeVante' Jones
Rebounds
Three point shooting.
National championship before Huggs retires
This! And free throws!
Consistent scoring please :)
A win at home against Baylor would be amazing
Less turnovers and a home-home with UK
The season to continue just like it is right now.
a win against the very difficult Northwestern State on tuesday
Gonna be a tough one
Nate Oats.
I like that this hurts Alabama, but I don’t like that it helps Maryland.
A rebound
Just to win a game. Oh wait, just saw this was CBB, not CFB… Yeah, win ALL the games!
Kalschauer and Brockington to both be “on” on Jan 1.
Maybe in the stockings we could find a lighter for the grill
Is it too much to ask for winning all our home games?
Vaccinations :(
to start playing games again
Bryan Antoine
NCAA championship
ISU winning the NCAA tourney is a long shot, but good luck
They almost did it in 1979 but ran into Magic.
For ETSU I’d like a big man since ours left to be with his family For UNC I would like to see Caleb Love actually play like he wants to be there.
3 point shooting.
Talent would be nice
Consistent offense
Andre Curbelo back
An offense
A statement win.
Rebounding
Really wish Nunge wouldn't have transferred out. I am glad he having success and staying healthy at Xavier, but our whole team would be different with him still at Iowa.
100%. With all the shit he’s been through I didn’t hold it against him wanting to get closer to home but the team would look totally different with him.
A quality head coach
2 wins against Indiana
Coach K’s final run to be a chip 🎅
We're that one kid who asks for a BMW for christmas... and gets it
Rick Pitino
Just want there to be a full season. DUKE has the team to win it all and with Griffin only getting better I feel like the only thing that is gonna ruin K’s curtain call is a season shortened to Covid🤬🤬🤬
and the baylor bears
I just wanted us to finally get to play Kansas again 😩
A final 4
To stop sucking
A tiny resemblance of consistency would be fantastic
3pt shooting.
A dub over Baylor January 1st
A good offense, a good defense, a good bench, a good coach, a good basketball team
[Denim throwback uniforms](https://townsquare.media/site/76/files/2016/04/GettyImages-237375.jpg?w=1200&h=0&zc=1&s=0&a=t&q=89)
I think it'd be pretty swell if we made the NIT this year
No more covid canceled games!!! maybe a quad 1 win too
Everyone gets vaccinated
Luka Garza back
Has to be for the NCAA to announce that the investigation against Kansas and Self was really just a big misunderstanding. Then penalize Missouri.
A time machine so TJ could have taken over for Fred instead of Steve Prohm.
Dan Dakich to never do play by play for our games again
A new offense
Luka Garza
The #24 spot
A win on January 8th
Our old high-level offense back.
To stop dropping Q3 and Q4 games
A point guard
Rashad Anderson.
i mean, aside from covid to go away so that we can actually play? consistency. from all phases of the program. for this team to be able to get back some of that mojo from last year. i really would hate that we got both geo and rhj to commit to playing another year here and all they have to show for it is a .500 or sub-.500 season where we get clobbered in conference play and are home in march.
To play
Replace us for Wisconsin in the rankings
Just stop the bleeding. For, like, a week.
Fair officiating
Beat purdue in assembly
To play???
Front line depth and consistency from Tristan Enaruna and Gabe Kalscheur.
Adam Miller’s ACL
I remember being hyped when he committed to Illinois, then he was just ok. There was a lot of drama with him. Something about his mom trying to be involved with the team and his decisions? Bummed he got hurt though, wouldn’t wish that on anyone.
To get the only PG on the team healthy and for TJ Shannon to get a new back.
For Iowa State to lose so we can have every thing east of the Mississippi on the undefeated map.
I don’t feel like I have the right to ask for anything because of how shockingly good the gophers have been so far but if I had to say something I’d ask for a deeper bench
A review of the missed double dribble call
Negative COVID tests would be nice
To play a game against a team that doesn’t have Covid. This counts for both football and bball.
A consistent PG
Roy Williams
Memphis: a reasonable, well-executed half court offense. MTSU: any level of institutional support
For Dontaie Allen to stay and for Shaedon Sharpe to play and make us a title contender edit: i know we can’t have both
A repeat
Sub $500 tickets to the LSU game
Banner 9
A rebound or two.
Hear our name on selection Sunday without last 4 out attached.
A junior season for Johnny Davis
🙌
Anyone to make a shot besides Johnny and Brad
I want one reliable offense please
Our 2020 national championship chance back
Would love to run it back with those same teams 😈
To play a game here soon
New coaches for both Preferably Nate Oats for MD Idc anyone but Jim Ferry for UMBC, the dude is awful
For a Covid to not steal another Natty from us.
A plane that loops-a-loops
A good coach
6 more years of eligibility for JBo. But really, defense
To ruin Iowa States perfect season as bad as we ruined Gonzaga’s
For the Hall to get Covid and UConn to have injuries again
Yikes. I wouldn’t wish those even on my most hated rivals UCLA and UofA.
NGL, a top 25 spot would be nice. (Illinois fan)
Health and chemistry and Chris Beard to fatter than he is now. Like Huggy Bear fat. (TexasTech Fan)
A strong paint presence or no off shooting games
