I have been saying this. Fran has done a terrible job keeping Basabe up. Basabe is a guy that needs to be tended to emotionally and not abandoned. When he is playing hard and passionate, then I will show you a good Iowa team. When Basabe gets yanked and sits the rest of the game, you will...

Re: I have to ask.....has Fran lost this team? I mean MSU was hot from the field and Maybe the best post I have read in a LONG time. Someone forward this to Fran. Well put!

Terrible job by Fran.

This is your team! Take it!

Well it isn't good right now, but Iowa needs to win 2 in the regular season and 1 in the tourney and I think we are a lock.

Bizarre player substitutions... Knee jerk reactions. Marble sitting with 4 minutes is baffling. WOW...

I agree. Our starters less Woodbury are playing well. The 2nd team is killing iowa

Team isn't the same without him

Fran is just fine... People just need to grow a pair. seriously Tirico made me sick last night talking about decorum. What about referees that can call a better game the front row of spectators. I'm tired of coaches taking criticism but refs are so protected and off limits.

This is easy. Gesell Marble White Basabe Oleseni I wouldn't play anyone else until one gets tired or gets into foul trouble or is totally sucking.

Depth is great when you press, play pressure D and run. We are pressing, but not playing pressure D and aren't running much. Depth doesn't do much good in a slow down game like we have been playing. We need to score in the 80's or more to win.

1. tough man to man 2. Attack the rim offensively 3. crash the boards 4. run 5. make free throws I thought this was Fran's style, but it has looked more like Licklighter ball with all perimeter shots. When it comes to Michigan, I would throw Gessell and Clemmons on Stauskas and deny him as...

Most people prefer Ferentz but wished he coached differently. It appears that he has modernized his approach a little bit throughout this season. He is mixing up the running backs, mixing plays, taking chances, blitzing.... These are things it takes to win in today's game and he appears to be...

So you are saying Iowa will have a different gameplan against a good defense? If their plan is to not grind it out in the future, shouldn't they be practicing that now?

Big plays... We destroy Iowa State on both sides of the ball and yet the game is close... Why?? Iowa State although inferior had some explosive plays that went for touchdowns. You can call it a breakdown by Iowa if you want to, but bunterage dude is just fast. If Iowa wants to compete a high...

My reference to Bob Sanders was demonstrating the importance of playmakers. I did not compare Law with Sanders ever. My point is this, Lowdermilk is likely the safe choice. He stays in position, doesn't make a whole lot of mistakes, etc.... He isn't a chance taker and will never be a guy...

That is the problem right there. People get caught up in stats, kind of like the ones Ferentz writes down on his little Steno pad. Canzeri is not going to be a 30 carry per game type of back. He should get the ball 10-15 times per game and he will likely break a couple of long runs. Powell...

Canzeri is not "coming off an ACL" he has been fully recovered for over a year. My point is this... Although guys like Ruddock and Bullock are serviceable and did an overall good job, they are not guys that can jump start an office by making outstanding football plays. We need speed at the...

Iowa has a few, the mostly ride the pine. Ferentz loves game managers..... Need to take a risk with a few players.... Powell Canzeri Law Beathard perhaps. my opinion love it or leave it.
