We reportedly have the NIL via the Swarm in place. Fran has to recognize we need help in the worst way next season or we're in for a very, very long season.
We have money- Iowa doesn't get the transfers in football if they don't. Fran knows very well what the market rate is on transfer starters.
I hadn't heard that is widely rumored. If true, that's a big problem.
Almost like his stat line was 8/22 (3/13) and had less rebounds than a guard yesterday? The losses aren't on one person or family. It's why they call it a team sport. They all can claim their fair share of the blame for the effort on defense.
This is the first I’ve heard any comment on Perkins. He’d start next year so why would he transfer? He’s not going to find as “open” of an offense as he will at Iowa… unless he’s $ shopping
Losing playing time because of the hidden rule about at least one McCaffery has to be on the court at all times, if not two. Maybe because he is just tired of the "family business" plain and simple. Not to mention the laziness/disruption PM causes on the court. And yes, PM has one good game every 10/15 games. JMO and/or observations.
Connor is gone and P-mac isn't going to be getting any of Perkins minutes. If Perkins put in the same effort P mac did yesterday we might be sitting on a 2 seed right now. Murray too. First I've heard of Perkins heading to the transfer portal. And Fran went after guys hard in the portal last year but we lost out most likely because we had no nil. I know we were 2nd in one bigs choices and he got paid. Fran wants all of his players to get nil money. He may have to change his approach about equal amounts to get the portal players here for 1 or 2 years.
He/TP was on the bench 15+/- minutes hard to contribute from the bench. If I remember correctly his time on the floor was in/out of the game after the initial 7/8 minutes. Basketball is a team game and team chemistry plays a huge part of the team cohesiveness. Jerking people around (but never a McCaffery) destroys continuity of the players/team/game.
All I'm saying is he won't be getting Perkins minutes. Pmac doesn't play the 1 or 2 and if he is giving a lot more effort than 3 of our starters then he should be playing. TP has been as inconsistent as his effort has all year. With the exception of Connor and fp and Sandfort off the bench i can bag on players and Fran for a huge post but I'm going to enjoy the women's success and revel in being a really great basketball school. I've already blocked yesterday's game and rewatched the women repeat as tournament champions!
haha, we always need an upgrade at the 1 spot with Fran. A former top college point guard with lots of good history as a coach and offensive minded coach and he cant get a top point guard here. Maybe Fran doesnt want a one and doner.
Well there won't be two Mac's playing next year unless Fran jumps in the fray......
I agree but he clearly was not ready this year
You're spot on. He totally plays like he's taller than everyone else, drives and realizes he's not, pivots then travels or wastes a possession.
Well coach pretty much shut him down second half of the year getting no minutes, other players mess up and its ok, could have gave c-mac 5 minutes less a game and maybe the kid gets more confidence. But Fran and his roations are like the Iowa D.
Why are there so many transfers in the NCAA every year? It's the new way of life in college sports. Get use to guys leaving that you don't think would. Why'd Frederick, Toussaint and Moss leave when they where going to be starters next year? Maybe Perkins sees without Kris and Filip this team is going to struggle to make the tournament and he wants to play in the Dance his senior year. That being said I haven't seen anything credible about him wanting to leave.
With both Sandforts, and Patrick I disagree.
Thank God we have the Storm
No, we know for a fact there was no swarm.
