I was thinking the same thing about Huggins when I heard, but hey, the guy's a Hall of Fame coach so what do I know? I think Joe's gonna surprise a few people on here much like Jack did this year.Really? Going to play for Huggy?
Not that I think he can't play in the big xii, although I was suspecting he might drop to a slightly lower level. But Huggy would not be on a list of coaches that I'd want to play for. Wherever he ends up I hope Joe finds a place that offers him some consistency in his role and that he thrives.
Plain wrong. Our offense struggled with Joe T as the starter and was noticeably better when Jbo took over. Connor maybe you can argue. Patrick is a threat offensively and provides length. I wish Joe T the best, but no need to bag on other players.While Joe T was far from perfect, the holes in his game were not any worse than the holes in JoBo's, CMac's and PMac's games but he was not a chosen son as they were. Best of luck to him in Morgantown!
Yet the team was considerably better with jbo starting. Explain that.JoBo, great outside threat when he could get open, limited turnovers, good at passing the ball around the perimeter, constantly got schooled on defense due to zero quickness. CMac, solid defender, excellent passer, and except for a 3 game stretch where he was nailing 3s he was extremely limited in his ability to score from anywhere on the court. PMac, nice length, reasonably quick for a big guy, constantly falls asleep on defense, inconsistent on offense and bad rebounder but a lot of promise. Joe T would get out of control on the offensive end trying to make things happen, poor shooter, excellent defender but made more WOW passes than any Hawkeye since Ronnie Lester-----that's why he led the Hawkeyes in assists this year while playing maybe 30% of the minutes that JoBo played. Unfortunately, when you are on Fran's list you get pulled for every mistake while the other 3 could do no wrong!
JBo was already starting.Yet the team was considerably better with jbo starting. Explain that.
And the Hawks might get their PG.He has decided to go to W. Virginia. I hope he does well!
Duh, JoBo started all year whether at SG or PG. The emergence of Perkins and continued improvement by Kris Murray and Sandfort played a bigger part in the Hawks success than JoBo playing the point. Hats off to JoBo for 6 years of dedicated play, some big games and some big game winning shots. But his deficiencies showed big time in so many meaningful games such as Gonzaga, Oregon and Indiana twice last year (as examples) where he should never have seen the floor except to give the athletic guards a rest. The same is true of CMac, as who knows how good the team could have been if Murray was getting 15 more minutes a game in his place. It is decisions like these that unfortunately dictate that Iowa will probably never see a Sweet 16 as long as Fran is head man!Yet the team was considerably better with jbo starting. Explain that.
IMO WV is a good fit for Joe T. They take pride in defense and pressure on the ball.
Oh for sure, you definitely know better than a D1 coach. How many Big 10 titles would we win with you at the helm? Silly me, you clearly are a genius.Duh, JoBo started all year whether at SG or PG.

The same amount as Fran 🤣Oh for sure, you definitely know better than a D1 coach. How many Big 10 titles would we win with you at the helm? Silly me, you clearly are a genius.
You're not very bright are you. Keep doubling down though. It's entertaining.Duh, JoBo started all year whether at SG or PG.

Uh, good coach who did not play by all the rules and got slapped with a myriad of NCAA violations…nonetheless, hope Joey T does well…Almost every P5 team would take a 3 yr college, almost starter, over most high school seniors. Happy that a very good coach picked him.
But it can't be an official post unless we get to take shots at (choose one or more): the coach, JBo, Cmac or PMac.Plain wrong. Our offense struggled with Joe T as the starter and was noticeably better when Jbo took over. Connor maybe you can argue. Patrick is a threat offensively and provides length. I wish Joe T the best, but no need to bag on other players.
I think just as much of a reason was when the second unit was kris keegan joe t, ulis, plus who ever else. Everyone likes to focus on perkins starting but that group lit purdue and many other teams up.Yet the team was considerably better with jbo starting. Explain that.
So you think the holes in Joe's game were worse than the others? Ok lolPlain wrong. Our offense struggled with Joe T as the starter and was noticeably better when Jbo took over. Connor maybe you can argue. Patrick is a threat offensively and provides length. I wish Joe T the best, but no need to bag on other players.
Did you watch out last game? Interesting how we were great in season once Keegan got healthy, then he gets hurt during the last game and we go back to being unable score again. Pretty sure jbo was in that game .Yet the team was considerably better with jbo starting. Explain that.
Yeah I doubt that. Pretty sure Huggy was Rhode's scholarwell he won't have to go to class, bob thuggins discourages that
Someone always has to post this kind of shit. Every other program is dirty but Iowa. While I think Huggins is certainly in the twilight of his career, he's getting inducted into the Hall of Fame, has over 900 wins (1 of only 6 coaches) has made the tournament 23 out of the last 26 years and has 2 final 4's. While not 1 time coaching at a Blue Blood school. I would have taken him in a heartbeat. And that is not a knock on Fran. Don't come at me Fran! lolwell he won't have to go to class, bob thuggins discourages that
I loved him as a spark plug off the bench, it will be interesting to see what his role is on WVA…I’m happy for Joe. Never understood the negative crap on here about him or why Fran played him so sparingly. He’s got game.
It's as predictable as the sun coming up each morning. Apparently Iowa has the only athletes that go to class. Well, Iowa, Northwestern, and the Ivy's anyway. 😃Someone always has to post this kind of shit. Every other program is dirty but Iowa.

Jevon Carter comes to mind.Huggins always has tough guards who defend and can take people off the dribble.
Were you?Yeah I doubt that. Pretty sure Huggy was Rhode's scholar
