Lose 3 starters and player of year and Nunge who would have made a HUGE difference on this team. We are exceeding expectations. Win at Penn State and still right there on the right side of the bubble. Goodness people.

Yep. Win that game we had at Rutgers and we are in a lot better spot and shape. But overall still doing well considering my OP.About where they are, is what I expected.
Not exactly failing, but not exceeding expectations, either.
A waste of 2 guys who had Western Illinois as their best offers? Swing and a miss.LOL....a waste of Murray's. What will the excuse be next year? Fran is the epidemy of mediocracy and Iowa and their fans deserve each other to eternity and I guess I'm included into that hellhole.
Oh, you should’ve been reading my posts from the beginning of this season.Lose 3 starters and player of year and Nunge who would have made a HUGE difference on this team. We are exceeding expectations. Win at Penn State and still right there on the right side of the bubble. Goodness people.
What should be your expectations when your coach of many years just got an extension less than a year ago??Lose 3 starters and player of year and Nunge who would have made a HUGE difference on this team. We are exceeding expectations. Win at Penn State and still right there on the right side of the bubble. Goodness people.
You may be right. We maxed the non con with our metrics but need enough wins to get in. Sunday at Penn State is a must win.Oh, you should’ve been reading my posts from the beginning of this season.
This team is not making the tourney. Way too soft.
I’m still hopeful we can sneak into the NIT but that might be a dream also.
Ok and if we had Nunge who unexpectedly transferred how much better would we be right now? Skilled 7 footer who can do it all. Perfect.What should be your expectations when your coach of many years just got an extension less than a year ago??
Goodness people!
I think we can make a deep nit run!Oh, you should’ve been reading my posts from the beginning of this season.

Fairthis is about what I expected. Around a 9 or 10 seed or maybe nit
Fran had all off season to replace him...don't give me that bullshit!!!Ok and if we had Nunge who unexpectedly transferred how much better would we be right now? Skilled 7 footer who can do it all. Perfect.
LolFran had all off season to replace him...don't give me that bullshit!!!
It's on his resume and why he was hired. When he's up against the wall, he'll occasionally flail in the right direction.fran seems like a capable coach when fouls or injuries force him to play better lineups.
Cool. And you thought they'd be better than 14-6? This bullshit I read here reminds me of the football season. Expected to win 8 or 9 tops. Massively exceeded expectations early and the goalposts moved and people lost sight of it at the end on what they actually accomplished considering expectations.The thing about statements like this.... It doesn't take into consideration HOW we are losing games.
Most didn't expect to win against Purdue, but to continue to watch our Super Seniors get HEAVY minutes, while providing very little will piss off any fan.
While Kris sees limited minutes, unless someone is dinged up or in foul trouble.
Sorry, not sorry
That's what I thought
I'm not too concerned with what you think based on numerous examples.That's what I thought
Why even say 14-6Cool. And you thought they'd be better than 14-6? This bullshit I read here reminds me of the football season. Expected to win 8 or 9 tops.

Yeah your opinion counts for anythingI'm not too concerned with what you think based on numerous examples.
Oh I see. Bring in more free agents next time when he already had a full roster and he got Rebraca to replace Nunge.Fran completely shitting the bed in the portal is why expectations were low and preseason rankings (expectations) aren't worth the tp you could actually wipe your ass with by this point, but bravo on that point you think you made OP. Doesn't excuse the fact they could be a better team if Francis wasn't such a stubborn, biased f*ckhead
A waste of 2 guys who had Western Illinois as their best offers? Swing and a miss.
NET is top 25 and that matters greatly. Wins at Virginia and neutral vs Utah St, MATTER..Why even say 14-6
You thought we'd lose to any of those BS garbage teams we played early??
We are sub .500 vs b1g teams and sub .500 vs p5/6 teams ...
I hate to do this cause I like the message, but going to have to slap the WOB on this disease ridden post.LOL....a waste of Murray's. What will the excuse be next year? Fran is the epidemy of mediocracy and Iowa and their fans deserve each other to eternity and I guess I'm included into that hellhole.
What did Fran do with them, dumb ass! The Murray's aren't a waste, the coach, playing JBO and Connor as much as he does is the true travesty and not getting a true center in the portal to go along with the Murray's is the waste.A waste of 2 guys who had Western Illinois as their best offers? Swing and a miss.
They play a ton, dumbass. Wasted? We have no inside presence. The team is limited and has overachieved. But keep projecting.What did Fran do with them, dumb ass!

Fran deserves all the criticism heaped on him for going along with all the Iowa fans with there, but Iowa lost 3 starters and 1 bench player last year, so if Iowa doesn't do well, it's not the coaches fault mentality. Carry on!
I don't disagree. I do think expectations can be adjusted during the season especially in the football season this year. We saw hawks get a lot of breaks and win games solely with defense and SP creating points and good field position. Even just an average offense and you are maybe looking at a 12 win season, etc.Cool.

I wanted to know going into the season what people actually thought compared to where we are now. It matters. Win on Sunday and still in great shape. Making the Dance is a successful season considering the OP.I'm confused what the point of this thread is. We cant be upset at the god awful decisions Fran has made this year because our team was supposed to suck? Lol... gmafb.
Your 2nd best example is a 2-5 mountain west team? GTFO LMFAONET is top 25 and that matters greatly. Wins at Virginia and neutral vs Utah St, MATTER..
His point is after more than a decade you shouldn't expect more than mediocre...so be happy when you see mediocrcy!I'm confused what the point of this thread is. We cant be upset at the god awful decisions Fran has made this year because our team was supposed to suck? Lol... gmafb.
Lol they're not coming backBoth likely NBA players.
Team will be better next year with them coming back and super seniors leaving.
Could be better this year by sitting super seniors
