Iowa 67, Purdue 65

Nice. Very nice.

Might be a little too soon to say that all is right in the world of Hawkeye Basketball again, but this was one heckuva way to send off senior Jarryd Cole- who, to his credit has stuck with the program through some of it's worst years and ends his career here at Iowa on his third coach. I'd like to hope that Mr. Cole will end up doing some time in the pros and if there's any justice in the world, maybe he will- but one thing is for sure: Iowa fans have long memories- and they will remember Mr. Cole.

As for everything else: I've liked what I've been seeing all season and I think Gary Barta finally got it right this time. We've got some momentum heading into the Big 10 Tournament, Coach McCaffery is pounding the pavement looking for the recruits he wants and there's a sexy hint of optimism in the air. Good things might just be afoot.

In other words: turn, meet corner.
