Bench Payton & Dix

[Hawkeye Marching Band]

Reggie was way Stronger/thicker than Payton, Pryce, Josh Dix. I agree our guys could be tougher and put more effort in, but they
also need to put more effort in the weight room.

Iowa is a a definite disadvanted in Size, strength, athleticism, desire on rebounding with the lineups Fran is putting out there.

Kevin Boyle wasn't. He was also shorter than the Sandforts.

Several years ago Tom Izzo told Fran that his players weren't tough. (Izzo also noted he thought Fran himself was tough.) Fran has had some tough players during his tenure, but there's not much toughness on this year's team and what we see of it is inconsistent.

The best pound for pound/inch for inch rebounder was Darryl Moore. Guy was 6’2” tops.

Didn’t start watching Hawks until 86. Good to know, impressive.
