Underwood: Iowa is good. Pretty impressive you when you watched it again on film.
I don't know if we drank the poison of success or just being a little bit different & young & not being in that gym at all until game time.
We were flat & they were really good.
Underwood: On to Wisconsin & probably the most valuable player to his team in college basketball in Ethan Happ. Pretty impressive to look in the record book & see him in the top 3 or 4 in so many categories.
Underwood: Preseason, I thought (Wisconsin) was the best team in the league.
Underwood: I've told Giorgi to watch a lot of film of (Happ). Their skill sets remind me a lot of each other. Giorgi doesn't have that much freedom yet. That's a really big compliment to Giorgi. Hopefully he gets there.
Underwood: Had some conversations with Kipper the last couple days. Not going to say he's in 'a great place'. Frustrated that he hasn't played the way he's wanted to play.
Got to get him back to the basic things of just loving the game.
Underwood: When Samba completely understands the positioning, you see what his length and athleticism provides. We need him to do his work early to not get pinned in.
Every minute he plays, he gains confidence.
Underwood: Anthony Higgs will not play this season. No sense jeopardizing a year with what he could be. He gets an extended offseason.
Underwood: This is Coaches vs. Cancer week. You'll see us in sneakers and ties. Our guys were incredible yesterday at the Cancer Center.
