    Leistikow: What was Barta thinking?

    That was literally your stipulation for Coach K if he was at Depaul why can't I adjust his overall record according to what we had been saying? Oh because finding facts to support that Fran's actually been a better coach than you want to admit would be terrible for you.

    Leistikow: What was Barta thinking?

    The point is as many anti-Fran people say is NCAA appearances. Fran has 3 of them and I was posting to say I could see how there should've been 4. I'm not excusing the blowout losses in the 2nd round, if those were even close, competitive games I'm not sure there would be as many neigh-sayers. I...

    Leistikow: What was Barta thinking?

    Ok so add this last season in there and we're at 60%. If you'd like me to include the first two seasons then there's a reason you're as negative and nonfactual as you are. 60% is also what Leonard Hamilton's career winning percentage at Florida State is but I'm sure nobody would call him a...

    Leistikow: What was Barta thinking?

    Last time I checked, there are no asterisks next to NCAA tournament appearances where you were the last 4 in. Syracuse was a last 4 in this year and made it all the way to the elite eight. You make it or you don't. Granted I do understand that could be turned on it's head to say either you don't...

    Next Year's Rotation

    With Cook: Bohannon Moss Dailey/Wieskamp (I think are interchangeable at this point until Wieskamp plays D-1 minutes) Cook Garza Bench Minutes: Baer Nunge McCaffery Dailey/Wieskamp (opposite of who starts: will get big minutes I think as well) Kriener W/O Cook: Bohannon Moss Dailey/Wieskamp...

    Leistikow: What was Barta thinking?

    Exclude his first two seasons and the last season you have a 65% winning percentage overall. I won't take the time to go into specifics for big ten record, overall was easier to find. But has only finished lower than 6th place 3 seasons out of 8 in the B10. Looking at an overall record can be...

    Leistikow: What was Barta thinking?

    You're right there are no participation trophies, But I don't know that it serves 0 value to be finishing "close" on big recruits. Big recruits are friends, and they talk and so others know who's good at recruiting and who will show the post love. I also feel like this is a standstill argument...

    Leistikow: What was Barta thinking?

    3 NCAA tournaments that could have easily been 4...in a row if not for a blown call at Minny and a big shot at Nebby which would make it 1 year without an NCAA appearance, but I digress. 2nd round landslides to the eventual national champions, and a final four team. It should've been closer than...

    Leistikow: What was Barta thinking?

    Has it taken Fran 8 years to become relevant? If that's the case then I have no idea what your definition of relevance is.. I do realize a good coach will be able to turn a program being as I aspire to be a coach someday. The programs help but the coaches are what puts those teams on the map. A...

    2019 Tyreke Locure

    Very skewed towards the book numbers. In order for a player to record an assist the other player would have to make the shot. Now I'm not sure if that's the case here as I know Carton shot it 18 times. I would take both and play a 2 guard lineup a lot if I had both of these guys on a team...

    Leistikow: What was Barta thinking?

    I think that's what I'm trying to say, maybe I didn't communicate that well enough. If coach K took over for Depaul of whatever the worst p6 school is he would probably bring them to at least relevance, not sure we're talking championships instantly. But like you said, it's going to take more...

    Leistikow: What was Barta thinking?

    So if you go take over for Coach K at Duke compared to you taking over as Coach of say Depaul that shouldn't hamper any future success or failure no matter how good or bad of a coach you are? You should still win as many championships at Depaul as you would at Duke or UNC? Expectations are the...

    Minnesota PG Tyrell Terry Strengthening Bond with Hawkeyes

    Perfect. Then hopefully some of the others will see it that have been hating already. Sorry about that.

    Leistikow: What was Barta thinking?

    Lute was putting up 18 win seasons? That seems like a familiar win number for Fran. I understand the times have changed, but I think that's my point is that times have changed and Iowa basketball has changed as well. Basketball has changed, and Iowa is no longer a powerhouse program like it was...

    2019 Recruiting: Big Board

    I'm also betting that Fran and Co. also have thought about this and have cleared minds of this, but I'm not one of the coaches so I don't know for sure. To each their own opinion, but mine is that CM will change permanently to baseball which also would provide another scholly to fill if need be...

    Leistikow: What was Barta thinking?

    Or as long as they're making postseason tournaments which they have done 6 out of 8 years. 3, should've been 4 NCAA's in a row before this season then yes I will be good. The next step is to win more NCAA tournament games and I'm confident that can happen with the classes coming, if it doesn't...

    Leistikow: What was Barta thinking?

    I don't think there's a world that would ever satisfy a fan like you. Fran is better than Alford, Fran is better than Lickliter. I will take progression. With the classes that he has coming in it will be better. I am not trying to convince you of anything, I would just like some actual facts...

    2019 Recruiting: Big Board

    I also think a recruit is smart enough to know Jordan will be a senior which leaves Iowa with 1 PG after that and they've seen Bohannon start over CM so it's not like he won't play them if they're better.

    2019 Recruiting: Big Board

    I don't think CM has any affect on the '19 PG's. Wouldn't be surprised if he full time switches to baseball next year either. If I was a betting man I would say yes Fran gets at least 1 of those 3 PG's. Unless Locure blows up after the other PG's go off the board.

    2019 Recruiting: Big Board

    I'm counting Pemsl in that count as well. I think Pemsl leaves this year or next because he still has a redshirt. That would give you the 4th and you wouldn't have to take PMac or CM off scholarship. Kreiner, Nunge, Baer are all better basketball players than Pemsl and I think he'll find that...
