    The path forward

    True. But I think more could be done to enhance his offensive strengths. This offense doesn't run plays for specific players (other than the post) and I think it'd be good to spend a couple possessions getting him in a rhythm. Plus he just needs more minutes.

    Beating Michigan....Does that Equal a 7 seed in the Big Dance?

    Still a nine seed tonight. Win tomorrow and a seven is in the conversation.

    Nicholas Baer

    I was going to post about Baer. No matter how the next couple games go- he's ending his career with great confidence and production. His stroke looks sweet. I hope he gets 25+ minutes a game going forward.

    winning or losing this game doesn't change reality

    Hmmm. If you don't see both production and potential I think you're being negative. JW has an incredibly bright future regardless of the shitstorm around him. He's been hurt. He will never have great lateral quickness for guarding an opposing 2. But he has all the other tools and every...

    Big 10 Tournament

    There's a chance. Different officiating (freeing up the guard play) and a team that can shoot, you never know.

    The path forward

    Right, I wish, but he doesn't seem like a program guy. Seems pretty certain he's going to leave.

    The path forward

    Right, forgot to mention Dailey. In my scenario he falls off the 8 man rotation.

    The path forward

    This season is more or less done. At most we have two or three more victories to watch, which would in the big picture mean a really good season for this team. And still we've got a team that disappointed down the stretch and leaves us pessimistic about the future of the program. Perhaps best...

    That PG group is rough. Bryce is the easy call for the value. Can I get Christian Williams for $0.50?

    Who Would Guess That Iowa Has a 4**** Soph PG on Its Roster

    The CM vs. IM minute sharing debate is a really puzzling question. Moss is clearly a guy who will be able to carry the team on some nights and CM just cannot. The difference on D is not that wide IMO. Moss gets more big steal/layup plays. It's mystifying how little PT he's getting in second...

    Miller: How Sports Can Teach

    Tremendous stuff Jon. There's nothing so powerful as someone being vulnerable enough to share their shortcomings and growth in public. You did it in real time. Real strength, real manhood. Well done.

    Howe: It's Fitting Nicholas Baer Gets Senior Day to Himself

    Baer should get the Jess Settles six year exemption award and come back next year. Just cuz.

    A common denominator is that neither know how to manage (let alone capitalize) on the double team. Recent opponents have crashed down and both have failed to use it to create an easy three.

    Tyler

    Can someone explain this one to me? Four weeks ago he was a beast. Recently he's acting bored, slow, disinterested. Missing easy shots, defending half heartedly, not going for the 50/50 stuff, not getting the important defensive boards. I watch and wonder if he even likes basketball that...

    Iowa has no choice but to Suspend him

    No way. Screaming at refs is a time honored activity for coaches, even after the games. Maybe a fine or censure but no suspension. Plus from what I could see Fran was right.
