I can't wait until we have a center that can put his arms above his shoulders
Are we sure baer deserves a scholarship? This team needs athletic mentally tough players.
Yep. 2nd meltdown in 3 years. Becoming more obvious Fran is not a good coach. He should be sitting on a warm seat and if we see this same garbage next year he should be fired. No excuse for 4 seniors, 1 junior, starter being so bad, especially when 2 of the players are very good. Fran time to get your act together or start dusting off the resume.
If teams played a triangle 2 zone on Jok and Uthoff, this team would be lucky to score 20 points. That's how pathetic that is.
Besides Indiana, he's looked like, well, a walk on freshman.
At least that's his excuse.
7 footer that plays like he's 5'10 since day 1.
Any chance our NCAA opponent double-teams both Uthoff and Jok and shuts us out?
Gesell, Clemmons and Woody could not hit water if they fell out of a boat. The worse offensive players, who start in big 10. Not even a threat.
Can we decline a tourney invite? This team is about to set Iowa hoops back ten years with this crap. Total crap.
Yesterday when Illinois was playing Minnesota, they showed the Iowa players in the stands. The thing that jumped out at me was the players were either on their cell phones or talking to each other instead of watching the game. Why are you even there if you are not going to pay attention to your next opponent. Overconfident? No accountability or sense of responsibility.
I don't care about offense. Freaking play some defense.
We play man to man we get schooled
We play zone we get schooled.
What is a coach to do? Foul them every time down and hope they miss their FT's.

Decline the NCAA bid please, no further embarrassment needed this year
Maybe one day Fran will get it through his thick skull that you need more than sticks to win. You need guys who are big bodies and want to mix it up inside. Fran, this is the B1G not the Patriot league.
We don't win the Drake game without him (insane as that sounds, given that Drake is 7 & 49 or something). But I don't understand why everyone is so in love with him. He works hard, brings a spark. But I'd save scholarships for guys with more talent.
