that agreement. stephanie: in the metro today... carly fiorina said she thinks trump's overreacting to the threat of muslims in the u-s, and that his outlook is just as dangerous as president obama's restrained reaction to the terrorist attacks in san bernardino. she says president obama isn't prepared to do anything, but trump is playing on everyone's worst fears. so what can be done? here's where she suggested we start. "if we have a terrorist on the no-fly list, let's go indict them. let's go round them up and indict them because once you're indicted for a felony, you can't buy a gun. let's try that. i keep hearing about terrorists on watchlist, boy, if we have a known terrorist on a watchlist, why don't we go round them up and question them. let's enforce the laws we have." stephanie: today in court... a metro child abuse case is finally over for the families affected. stephanie:

"i was waiting for me to do something good at the end of the game for that to happen. that was sort of just in the moment, i didn't before the game think about, oh i'm going to do this, but just everything they said during the game and stuff like that, but it's all out of good fun, i feel like i have a competitive nature and that's just me and i feel like i don't hold back on anything. if i only went 2-2 with iowa, what's the point of playing? so obviously the goal is to go 3-1 and we obviously wanna beat them and continue our hot streak and keep on

they're always good, and what's fun is i don't know if there is anything fun about it. it's nice that we are parts of programs that have brought, i think, some pride, some dignity, some respect, some attention to our universities and it's our state. and we take it very seriously and i know they've done an amazing job there over the years and hopefully our fans and the people who follow women's basketball and even if you don't, look at both programs and say hey they've added some great things to our state and they're doing it with people leading them that have the affinity for this state that we do. and i think coach bluder and i share that and it's fun to be a part of it." the 23rd ranked hawkeyes and the cyclone women tip off hawkeyes and the cyclone women tip off friday evening at 7pm inside hilton. the game can be seen on cyclones dot tv... hoops action from tonight, the uni panthers take down george mason on the road, 73-65. wes washpun and paul jesperson
