What does everyone think about this issue?
Adam Woodbury eye poking and coach defending??

Seems blatant to me. I don't get it. Very odd.

[biteoftheapple 4,115]

Publicy, the Coach must back the player. Prvaty may be quite different. This many eye piles does seem odd.

[Hoosierboy1980 451]

He is undoubtedly doing this on purpose. Everyone of the eye pokes look to be blatant. He should be suspended.

[Kilroy 271]

Can't really claim a basketball player of his ability is uncoordinated. Little too aggressive with the hand in the face defense.

I hope we take it to these guys. Hate Iowa.

I think Mr. Woodbury is very close to having someone's elbow or forearm meet the tender area between his legs.

[bleedhoosier 3,627]

We need Tom Meat-Hook Pritchard in the lineup for this game

[coonhounds 9,032]

I cant help but agree it looks intentional and if it is he should b suspended for a few games. I cant say yesterday bothered me though we need all the help we can get lol

I mean, he may not be doing it on purpose, but it sure looks like he does. Who plays defense with their hands that close to the players' face? I say suspend him, even if just for a half or something. That doesn't happen 3 times.

I kind agree with Maryland's coach, be awful hard to be that accurate if being done on purpose... I mean does he ever miss his target? Hit somebody in the face but not in the eye? Getting your hands in somebody's face (figuratively not literally) is the start of good defense. Offensive player can't shoot or pass well if he can't see

[ALASKA HOOSIER 11,276]

3 friggin' times! that's unheard of. He must be intentionally doing the finger to the eye drill.

[AZ Hoosier 7,345]

I have to agree. The video that I saw of him doing it, it sure looked intentional. Sorry, but there's no place for that in this game or this league.

[HoosierD 504]

The one on Trimble looks intentional and makes you feel like the other two probably were as well. When a guy is dribbling at you, your first instinct is not to stick your hand out at his face, it's to go for the ball. The ball was at his waist and he reaches straight for his eyes....

Iowa has changed their nickname to the "Poke-eyes."

"Because I said so!"

 

Priceless

[Creanfan 291]

Every team should just sport eye goggles every time they play them. 

[Alford Bailey 12,392]

Considering the type of D we play getting a "hand" in the opponents face couldnt hurt us at this point.

[Crimson and Cream 5,832]

It was intentional, and he just backed away afterwards to look like it wasn't. Anyone saying that wasn't intentional is either an Iowa fan or too gullible. He should be suspended a game for it since it's his 3rd offense. Ridiculous.
