I see the DTN sho all about the 89 B11 basketball season where Iowa, IU, Michicgan and Illinois all had great teams. IU was of course led by Jay Edwards who was the Freshman of the year the previous year. In 89 he was named the Conference player of the year and averaged over 20 pts a game. I vaguely remembered Jay because I grew up on the Iowa-Illinois border, so I looked him up. He was taken in the second round of the NBA which shocked me because he seemed like a great player. Then he only played in a handful of NBA games, and the bio ends. What happened to Jay Edwards basketball career? Where is he now?

All right people, I have a couple of Korean friends, so I asked one of them to watch the video on youtube and this is what she said:

Omg, i can't believe you just subjected me to 3 minutes of listening to that crap, that's 3 minutes I'll never get back.

well, they are singing to some guy saying how they love him and hope he doesn't see them/her as just a little sister type.  They seem to be repeating the words, "i love you much" over and over.. and why not, who needs real lyrics.  I don't think there's a significance to why they have an Iowa helmet. I think they were doing the whole school, cheerleading theme and picked an Iowa football helmet. Nothing in the song eludes to that particular school.  Korea always does that though, they pick random schools or sports team to use as props, no telling why.

We’ve never been here before

It feels like a dream

8 and oh and after Sparty

What does it mean?

The defense was clicking

The O made me weep

Sparty took away Tony

And DJK deep

It was no garden party for

Sandy, Greeny, and Dace

But The Clayborn Supremacy

Planted Cousins’ face

Hook laddered and battered

KOK in a rut

Fourth and seven, two seconds

Stanzi slant to McNutt

My kids were asleep

So quietly I danced

Two things in my head

Beer and blackheartgoldpants

8 and oh after Sparty

Despite all our issues

My dick is still hard

I need lotion then tissues.

Fourth in the BCS

Cincy, Boise were bucked

If we win out now

Mac and Texas are fucked

Two weeks then the Horseshoe

Can’t afford any falls

Note to T. Pryor

T. Sash wants your balls (no homo)

To Captain Kirk and the Hawkeyes

Raise a glass, give a cheer

Beyond Brew!!! And the Gophers!!!

Lies the Final Frontier

In addition to this article, there are rumblings that several players will be leaving Iowa City including President Palmer. One reason is the slow style of play. Lickliter can't recruit, and he can't even keep the players he has. They would rather go and play for mid-majors than play at Iowa? Billie Gillespie may be available soon.

I am going to the Big Ten Tournament on Friday night (session 3) to see a couple of games. The first is Illinois v. the winner of Iowa/Michigan and the second is Purdon't v. the winner of IU/Penn State. I have not seen my Hawkeyes play live in several years so I am hoping that they win their first round game. I feel that with Cyrus Tate we are a different team, and that we could actually make some "noise" in this tourney. I hope so, because it will be the last tourney we play in until next year.

I live in Indianapolis, so I see Butler regularly and can't help to think that Lickliter shorted us a bit. Why didn't we get some of those players? Matt Howard and Gordon Heyward should be in the gold and black. Why are they ranked 17 and we can't get even get in the NIT? Do we have any big men to replace Tate next year, or are we going to go with an all guard lineup? Lickliter - You have some 'splain'in to do!

And by the way shouldn't BHGP have some basketball t-shirts? I can't wear the Stanzi shirt to a basketball game. Come on guys.

The South Carolina redshirt freshman quarterback earned the starting nod over sophomore Chris Smelley for Thursday's game, which is played at Raymond James Stadium, almost next door to Jefferson High School, where Garcia played prep football.

Garcia played in seven games this season, starting two of them for the Gamecocks.

Garcia presents a double challenge for defenses. He has passed for 753 yards and six touchdowns, completing 53.8 percent of his passes.
