1980 Final Four squad could have won if Ronnie Lester was healthy. Think Isiah Thomas but 6'2 and 200lbs. Hamstring injuries are usaully a football back or wr nightmare. Lester did play a couple years with the bulls but never seemed to have the explosive moves going to basket. Hawkeyes had 2 chicago catholic players. Both from St. Laurence and 2 pulbic league guys in starting 5. Nice job Lou Henson. Thomas to hoosiers. Agguire and Cummings to depaul.
My favorite Iowa moment is when the AD wakes up and decide to FIRE Fran. All these BS years and nothing in the tournament. ISU has had several coaches in their short career Floyd, Eustache, Hoidbeg, and their current coach and ALL HAVE DONE WELL IN THE NCAA TOURNAMENT !!!!!!!!!!!!
Down 2 starters in the middle of a blizzard, temps WELL below 0 and the wind chill was reaching down to NEGATIVE 40. Its a throwaway game. Get over it.
Steve Waite's 3-point play that gets us into the Final 4. THAT was it.
Hard to watch all those threes without seeing kingsbury
No Gamble at the buzzer to beat Oklahoma? You must be young.
Gamble and Waite in a dead heat for top spot.
Luka Garza Genius 🇧🇦👌
Iowa beating number 1 Indiana in the 80s taking over the number 1 spot. Home game I won't forget. These aren't close.
I wasn’t around for those times but i assure you these definitely are “close”
So what you’re saying is that your favorite Iowa basketball moments of all time are pretty much Bohannon making 3’s? Lol 🖤💛
The kid could shoot.
Awesome video!! Go Hawks!
Thanks!!
I think we can do it this year... I think we can get out of the first weekend
Do you have any of these full games saved?
I got all these clips from youtube, none were from full game cuts.
No acie earl clips?
I’m 17 and wasn’t around for Acie Earl. My dad has shown me clips of him, he seemed pretty good.
Go hawks

So basically you don't remember or didn't see any games in the 20th century?
I was 16 when i made this video, it is also “my favorite” so it doesn’t matter what i put it’s subjective
so you edit out "of all time"@@DTTW
@@robertkendrick2171 not necessarily, because that is my perspective of “all time”
And it really isn’t that important to begin with
If only they beat Richmond

My favorite is when they lose eastern IL after being favored by 31.5 💀💀
They didn’t have their best player. Everyone has bad games so leave the team alone

You forgot to capitalize the Eastern in Eastern Illinois. Shows how smart you are.
Luckily that isn’t remotely relevant to this video
Lol all the crybaby hawkeye fans in the replies
All good games indeed, but go back to the 1970 & 1980 seasons young man. The video isn't so good but the BB certainly was.
An air ball LoL
?
@@DTTW I think he means the first clip
