Another abyssmal loss to a mediocre Indiana team. Well done Fran well done. Oh wait Iowa can't do better.

I think you are correct key will be can we get any signature wins this year. Indiana on the road would be a good place to start. Some trolls on this board are overly sensitive to legitimate criticisms about Fran's in game coaching. Would love to see a health CJ back in the lineup and more...

Rarely is there ever an Iowa defender remotely close to the back side wing or baseline 3 ball. I mean guys are shooting shots they take before practice when nobody is in the gym. They have more defensive pressure in shoot around than we put up in a game. Patrick is the ONLY kid I've seen make...

So you're saying NOBODY else would've scored a point? Oh that's right JBo is all-time top 3 in total guard play at Iowa forgot. OK

Well InGoodCo says JBo is an all time Top 3 guard in Iowa History. So, we should obviously make a run into the Elite 8 this year. Our guard play is only second to Bj Armstrong and Ronnie Lester apparently. No idea why our best win of the year is Rutgers. HMMMMM

Fair point

Wow that's aggressive. Never said the kid didn't play as hard as he can....never said he hasn't given several years of his life to the program. One of the best 3 point shooters ever at Iowa I agree 100%. ONe of the best guards ever to play here? Well I guess it depends how far you wanna go...

Report I'm getting freaking OLD! You are correct sir!

I agree with you but I don't think the QB situation is really open. I don't think they go in to Spring Ball going ok everyone has a clean slate. What they're going to do is we know Spence is good at X,Y,Z he's not very good at A,B lets see if we can get him better at that....which they should...

I also think the Padilla kid is going to say what am I sticking around for? We could get really thin at QB really quick but then that would make it easy for Kirk to stick with Petras.

I agree this is Kirk being Kirk and the one spot never really open is the QB spot. Again the ONLY time a change occurred was when he was basically publicly shamed. Look what happened 12-0 and a yard from a CFP birth.

Sorry dude SEE Mr. Davis Davis. You're last point is false.

See all these what-ifs lead to the same dead end NO SHOT at a conference championship EVER. IF we are fine with that then so be it.

So basically you are saying you never want to potentially get better? 11 years at Iowa has produced, what the creator of this thread has communicated that many in the fanbase agree with, a team that consistently does certain things really good and certain things poorly. Fran's teams score...

Fran should rant on himself he has mysterious rotations in key situations. Let's have JBo take a turn around 35 footer when can't throw it in an ocean right now. Yet JW has been red hot from 3. Let's have JBo in when we need dfensive stops instead of JT.

No CJ hurt for sure and I have no idea what JBo is doing on offense....not scoring and he still can't play D. Perhaps less podcasting trolling for pay and more concentration on basketball would help?

You are absolutely correct! Fran teams lose at Minnesota like they did then lose to a middling Indiana team and can't win on the road when they had a great chance. Poor decisions by seasoned players. Wash, Rinse, Repeat UGH!

Boy this is yet another typical Fran team. Poor on Defense...asleep at the wheel when it matters. They'll finish top 25 in rankings probably get bounced early in the Big Ten tourney, win their first round game and get bounced by a disciplined athletic team in the round of 32. Wash, Rinse, Repeat.

You are absolutely right but as young as they are and on our court you would expect us to hit a shot every 10 minutes or so.

This was Lickliter bad tonight. Frighteningly bad.
