Strong drive. Outside of 1 penalty and 1 missed block, that's as about as perfect as you could hope to have to start the year.

I think people forget just how bad Iowa was when Fran got here. 5 years is a "long time" in today's standards, but he had to build this thing from the very, very, very bottom up. Recruiting has been okay given that Fran had to recruit from the basement of the B1G. Sometimes success lags behind...

6-11 seed depending on how things break. Iowa loses White but returns a pretty strong core group of players.

6 point swing off of something that should have never happened had the refs not been blind.

So that's what a T looks like? Wow, that's weak.

That pass from Jok showed maturity. Instead of taking the shot he passed to Gabe for a higher % layup.

Lots of contact inside in this game...extremely ragged.

I don't foresee Iowa being placed as the strongest 7 seed (equivalent a #25 ranking) in the field even if they beat IU and Northwestern. But maybe I'm wrong. Hopefully I'm wrong!

Northwestern and Minnesota losses ensured they wouldn't get votes. Win those games and Iowa is a top 20 team this week.

By far the most "clutch" and meaningful three point performance of his career, coming off his previous most clutch shooting in big moments. Really happy for him.

He's not polished to lets be clear...Minnesota is probably the toughest team to drive on in the B1G. Their hands are amazingly accurate and I'll give them credit, they played pretty clean for how often they were swiping at the ball. If Jok drives on even a good but normal B1G defense, he'd have...

I'm okay with him being sick. Opens up more minutes to Jok and Uhl.

I think he won the starting job...and once you win the starting job at Iowa, it's VERY tough to lose it. See: Jake C, and Jake R

Agreed.

On the football forum, we'd pay Ferentz to have this kind of emotion or open "Ill go to war for my players" attitude.

Okay, we agree on that completely. Palm out and he's good in every single case. fingers extended is lazy technique and very costly.

also, Lick Jr. rarely got scored on, since he was never in the game.

How else should a center attempt to guard a smaller, quicker player? If the big doesn't eat space with his wingspan, the guard will drive right around the center. Have to maintain some distance to react in case of the drive, while using your wingspan to take away the jumper.

He was driving, and then pulled up. Woody went from hand low to hand in face, which is correct, just bad execution. As stated elsewhere, hand should be up a bit higher, and palm should be out.

They're the same fans who complain about how clumsy he is.
