Funny b/c the only time I recall fans booing was when was stopped from Sandfort being down on the court. (which play should have stopped due to an injured player) but overall this crazy talk from the Iowa board reminds me why I used to cheer for the Hawks, but will never again. I remember going to a football game there about 10 years ago and was amazed how childish grown adults look especially when they are drunk. People were puking and peeing all over the place in plain sight. Never seen a more disgusting fan base.
The booing wasn’t just because of Sandfort’s lay down and the refs stopping play… the boos had already started and for damn good reason. Just moments before Trey was absolutely mauled on a made layup that put him on the floor. It was a horrible missed and-1 call and I was shocked the announcers completely ignored it. The stoppage was just seconds after that.
What happened next was a makeup call on Iowa fouling King as he made a layup. It was a little before Kings shot but King made the and1. The whole time Fran was going ballistic and his assistants had to constrain him (bad acting at the High School theater level). What was bizarre was Bahe going on and on about how King’s call was horrible and he didn’t blame McCaffery at all…
The fans complaining are scum. I’d stay away from message boards filled with Council Bluffs trailer trash… we unfortunately have a couple creeping around this board once in a while.
At Creighton Bob Gibson majored in sociology and starred in Basketball and Baseball. In 1957 Gibson received a $3,000 sign-on bonus with St. Louis Cardinals, but delayed his HOF Cards career a year to play pro B-ball with the Harlem Globetrotters.
