Long season and the youts are getting better, gaining experience. They can get hot at some point in the season in a marginal B1G.
Both FB and MBB need a new head coach.
Desperately.

Bowen needs to be allowed to play through his mistakes.
Freeman and Perkins as many minutes as possible.
PMac. Mop up duty only. Insane that he starts

Iowa Hawkeye Arena is a hard place to play commentator man. Most people don't play in front of empty seats.
no freedom of movement at all with their defense. They should be in foul trouble…
TP already stated he is done at Iowa after this year, I am predicting he goes into the portal (as graduate transfer) because he has had enough of the McCaffery's and wants the chance to play for a contender next year. JMO
lulzzz
Crowd giving a standing ovation for struggling with beating the worst team in the league for 35 minutes, at home.
**** off, Wisconsin

Freeman does not play like a freshman!
How many legit D1 athletes do we have?
Long & unathletic is Fran's specialty.

The roster is bare of athletes which is easier to teach D if your coach knows what that is, going to be a long year and hope fran gets as bored as the fans with Iowa basketball and moves on.
If they could find a way to clone Owen Freeman and Tony Perkins, there might be.
This. Neither should be starting. They play atrocious defense and when they can’t hit the 3 they stagnate the offense. Play the young guns.
I no longer get upset. I'm a casual viewer of men's Hawkeye bball.
PMAC stat line: 2-9 FG, 0-3 3 PT, 3 REB, 4 AST, 2 FL, 5 POINTS
He needs to come off the bench. Start Bowen, Perk, Payton Sandfort, Freeman, Krikke. It’s not that hard. I’d put PMac with the second group to get his terrible shots in.

Forwards not named krikke or Owen were 5/23. Some of that is contact on shots not being called as a foul, but yikes. We need to red light some players and sit them if they’re gonna be low percentage options
They need to go all in to retain TP. He’s the most important recruit on the board for next year.
Just ran the #s. Against the 7 big teams we have played Pat is averaging 5.7 points and 3.1 boards. I really think he's struggling mentally. I honestly wonder if he needs to be done. He's a great kid.
I'm so casual, I had no idea the Hawks were playing tonight until last night, when I was casually perusing my viewing options for the next evening.
I wouldn’t fault him for transferring. But we should be outbidding everyone to keep him and Freeman.
I think anyone who pays attention to his body language, on the court and on the sidelines, during most games says that he's mostly only out there because he doesn't want to disappoint his mom.
And Fran feels forced to play him so much so as to not have Margaret wear him down at home about it.
This. Payton hit his first 3 threes.... Then NOTHING the rest of the game. In 34 minutes. 9 points on those 3 3s.
PMac... 5 points in 27 minutes. 3 turnovers. 3 effing rebounds and 4 assists. 3 FREAKING REBOUNDS.
Freeman. 14 points, 13 rebounds, 3 blocks.
Perkins. 25 points, 4 reb, 3 steals
What makes Pmac a great young man vs say any other student at the University or the walkons? He plays a lot of minutes and isn't required to play defense/be physical or be high efficient scorer because his Dad is the coach. The fact that he developed into this player with these shortcomings is not his fault, he's had an enabler.
Because I have known him a long time and know he is a great guy. I'll defend that any day of the week.
His best assist was on a rare rebound where he let the Wisconsin guy just take it from him.
Nope you can find a lot of players like him in the portal.
I hear ya. I actually stumbled into the game while channel surfing. Had no idea they were playing. My apathy is pretty strong these days.
