In the waning seconds of Iowa's obliteration of Little Brother, walk-on guard Austin Ash got in for the last couple minutes of gametime, and hey, good for him to get some minutes in a rivalry game! We assume his plan was to politely dribble out the clock and go celebrate with his te—hang on, what's he doing:

Austin. You didn't have to do them that dirty. You didn't have to do that. Those young men have families that they have to look in the eye after this. And you did THAT to them, Steph Curry style.
Watch that Twitter clip as many times as you need to (I'm somewhere around a dozen as of print time), and pay special attention to the bench. They knew it was in too. It's the best.
In a game where Luka Garza was so hot from deep he could only shrug like MJ and where Iowa ran up the most points in a game in rivalry history, this was the perfect bastard cherry on top of the sundae of disrespect. Nothing less than an iconic moment in Hawkeye history. Take a bow, young man.
