The end of the game indicated to me that Iowa State's coaching staff went to the ShawVita school or timeout & clock management. But at least they weren't substituting players in their 2-minute offense with the clock running. Maybe they didn't get to that lesson.
The Pirate was the perfect hire for the Cougs.
A guy who could win there, but with enough baggage so he wouldn't be immediately hired away when he did so.
Kudos to whoever made that decision.
