Just a matter of time
ummm....I said it was only a matter of time. Did I stutter?we shall see what Daddy thinks. JoeT should start and play 30 minutes per game, because his upside is pretty high.
Coming into tonight's game, there were only twp scholarship players with a turnover % below 10%.
Bohannon - 8.7%
Toussaint - 9.9%
The excuse that he's mistake prone, to this point, is hogwash.
It’s not just turnovers, but he had two quick fouls last game. It should be a matter of time before he’s playing significant minutes. I could see Bohannon shutting it down and waiting until next year.Coming into tonight's game, there were only twp scholarship players with a turnover % below 10%.

McCaffery does also. The difference is that Toussaint draws multiple defenders and literally gets other players wide open shotsJoe T makes everyone on the floor better. He also is a guy who isn't going to back down. Is Foster sure he don't wanna ball with this guy?
Bull. Every player does things like that. If you want Joe to be perfect before he starts, then he never will.and then he plows over the pick showing he sill has to earn his minutes.

I would really like to see what Toussaint and Fredrick can do on the floor together

The recipe for success this season, in my opinion, rests on Joe T. I know many people will think that’s crazy because we have Garza and Joe W (and maybe JBo) but he gives our offense a much higher ceiling when he is on the floor. Frankly, we are going to need to score as many points as possible to win more games than not. I’m not knocking CMac but when he is on the court our offense revolves around swing passes on the perimeter and dishing into the post. Defenses are rarely having to help because Iowa lacks somebody who can penetrate and make defenses break down like Joe T. You add that element in the mix, especially having Joe T, JBo/CJF, Joe W, Garza, and Nunge on the court together, then defenses have to worry about a pass out for three, the drive to the hoop, the dish to a cutting big, and so many other possibilities. CMac is a guy you want coming in to give your main guy a break because he is going to play smart and he isn’t the type of player who relies on getting in the flow. My biggest concern is Fran continuing to give CMac more minutes and not giving Joe T his fair chance soon enough leading Joe T to transfer. If I were Joe T and Fran still sticks with Connor next year I’d leave too. Could I be jumping the gun in assuming Joe T is that good? Maybe... But throughout my years of playing, coaching, and scouting I firmly feel Joe T is a better basketball player already and deserves more minutes than Connor. Again, not knocking Connor as I think he is a legit PG as a role player coming off the bench. I just see way more upside with JT.

And complaining about pointless things are your friend.Paragraphs are your friend.
I'm torn about this, simply because it is often good to have that player who comes off the bench to jump-start the team. Most NBA teams have a 6th-man instant offense guy, maybe Joe T can be that for Iowa.Should be starting
I agree with everything except for Connor. He played well tonight. Evelyn needs to see a few drop right now. Good defense tonight on the 3 pt shooting, as this team is scary good. Top 5 3pt% in the country. Overall, a little bit bitter defense tonight. Still a long ways to go. We didn't hardly turn the ball over. Joe got into their heads. You are seeing a really promising point guard. Fredrick missed 4 shots, then finally hit a couple. Garza is a beast!Sponsored by Hotels.com and Captain Obvious....

He's a really good defender already as a Freshman. Almost got burned on a backdoor cut and gambles a bit too much. But he's lockdown when it's just one on one. These are defensive lapses that are common in all young players.
I think the Hawks will get beat up in B10 play. Pemsl looks slow and fat. Bohannon is a waste on defense. The team's clear 3 best players imo are Joe, Garza, and Weiskamp. But after that they're going to need to find depth.
