Ask a Cyclone Fan

Okeydoke, the management has allowed me to come onto RMN to answer any questions regarding ISU basketball. If you've got any questions about the team, etc., feel free to post them and I'll answer them to the best of my ability.

Also, I don't know if you guys knew, but ISU plans to send between 125-150 members of the student section to the game tomorrow afternoon.

Should be a good game tomorrow.

Don't know anything about ISU basketball

… so lets start with your bench… how deep is your team as a whole? is there anyone who can come off the bench that we should keep an eye out for?

Also, do you have any big men and how are they?

The bench is kind of thin

There shouldn’t be any real contributors. Alex Thompson plays good post defense but doesn’t score at all. Wes Eikmeier and Sean Haluska are garden variety guards, while Charles Boozer will come in for his D.
Jamie Vanderbeken is a 2 in a 5’s body.

As far as big guys, Craig Brackins is one of the best in the conference, while Justin Hamilton is rounding into form as a solid contributor that needs to shoot more.

Will your visiting student section be as obnoxious as Purdue's?

Also, how would you categorize ISU’s identity as far as tempo? Do they get up and down the court or slow it down? Are they resistant to other teams playing a different tempo, or do they find themselves playing at a different speed depending on the opponent? Is the canoe wooden or aluminum? Why is the sad cebu sad?
