Why McCaffery brothers left Iowa

I will agree with this to an extent.

Running off Joe Toussaint was one of Fran’s biggest flubs in terms of roster management.

Joe T. was really valuable to WVU and T-Tech. He should’ve got more run at Iowa.

His last season at Iowa, the team took a 180 when he was removed from the starting line up (in a good way).
 
He was. He came off the bench. Played limited minutes. Played well in bigger games. Then he began to start and play more minutes and he was awful.

If you are looking at the offensive stats (scoring) .............. they weren't consistent game to game but he had enough good scoring games to elevate his average to adequate numbers.

If you are looking at the overall game.......... there was a lot to be desired on the boards and his defensive lapses. I wish there was a way to overlap the points he allowed against the points he scored. It would show a much more accurate assessment of his 20 to 24 minutes on the floor. His rebounding effort and numbers were pathetic for someone 6'9'' with length.
 
You obviously don't like the Mac clan, which is your choice, but without Connor, Iowa would have won a lot fewer games his last two years, especially his senior year. I probably agree with your opinion of Patrick.
Again, entitled to your own opinion about Connor but could not agree less
 
Patrick was actually decent his first couple years. Connor also really hurt recruiting. Any guard recruit would seriously have to question coming to Iowa and having to compete with the coaches son, who’s going to get every chance to play and then some. Ask Joe T.
Fair point, but I don't think we really know whether the Mac boys hurt recruiting. Connor didn't play PG his senior year. Hard to say what position Patrick was playing.
