That is not why I deleted my comments. Thanks.

I heard those stories. Crazy shit.

Garza/Kreiner will get the same amount of minutes at the 5. Nunge/Pemsl will get Cook/Baer's minutes at the 4. That leaves 36.6 minutes per game to split between Joe T, PMac and CJ. Assuming CM's minutes don't go up from 19 mins, that is. PMac is the obvious choice to back up Joe W at the 3. JW...

You'd be lucky to find a handful of Fran's players that would fit this description, over his 9 seasons here. Moss doesn't fit this label either, so your point stands. But Fran doesn't recruit players that fit this description, so I wouldn't hold my breath looking for these attributes in the...

This is a great question. These are parents I met through a different program, so maybe they were smart enough to put their kids somewhere else. I don't have any real inside info on it. Just stuff I heard when the arrest occurred. I do know that taking a kid to a weekend tournament and letting...

I guarantee you that other coaches on the Barnstormers heard rumblings. I know some parents openly shared the "don't leave your kid alone with Greg" sentiment. I had some parents tell me that much, after this all came out. I'm not at all sure how the people at AAU would know these things. They...

But did we get one? Haven't seen CJ, Joe T or PMac play defense against BIG teams. We could be worse. As hard as that is to imagine.

"Melanin deficient"

I'll be the first to admit that I am shocked. And pleasantly surprised. Every year I see NFL teams draft more athletic players over more complete players. Hopefully it works out for both of them.

I stopped reading after I saw his first Xs/Os picture. No 4 man front that I ever saw, lines up like that.

Every coach has recruiting misses. Having and landing plan B is the difference.

I spend a lot of time at heavily recruited AAU tournaments, every summer, from Ohio to Kansas. Dillard is the Iowa staff member that I have seen the most and it's not even close. Fran is 2nd.

I would schedule that way every year. Young teams that play those types of schedules are very tough teams when they are JRs and SRs. Always play the best competition you can find. It's the only way to be the best.

Scoring defense ranking for all Elite 8 teams. Teams advancing to the Final Four in bold. Virginia - #1 Texas tech - #3 Kentucky - #29 Gonzaga - #31 Michigan State - #34 Purdue - #45 Duke - #69 Auburn - #93 If you want to get serious about deep runs in the NCAA tournament, you better play defense.

I'll say 2 things about this. 1) Fran has always played his PFs away from the basket. So, I'm not sure we can put that on TC. And Garza has taken the role that Pemsl had in 2016-17. Which goes back to Fran preferring to play more of a stretch 4 than having 2 bigs under the basket. In order for...

I'm not particularly looking for any debate. I'm simply pointing out some facts for some unnamed posters that like to rip on TC but ignore the facts about other players. I think advanced stats have a place but they are incomplete, at best. As I already stated. There is no advanced stat to...

This explains your rational but not everyone else's. You can say that TC isn't really that good of a rebounder but he's better than Garza. Period. I don't give a rip about stats per 40 minutes because Garza either can't stay out of foul trouble long enough to play extended minutes or he isn't in...

Sorry. Basic message board decorum dictates you respond to the topic at hand or state your intention to change topics. If we have to start guessing at the intentions of other posters, it'll be chaos! It'll be anarchy! Well.....I'm taking a stand. Right here. Right now. Get on board or get on...

No. We won't be. People don't think of TC as a good defender but rebounding is a defensive stat, for the most part. Whoever takes TC's place is going to have to average at least 5 rebounds with zero turnovers, in order to offset Cook's 7.6 rebounds and 2.8 turnovers. Nobody seems to want to talk...
