Part of basketball is putting together groups that compliment each other. When iowa subs and guys like white and uhl and gesell leave the court the athleticism goes down on the court. When Woody comes out we increase the athleticism. Gabe gives the back ups the athleticism and scoring they need...

Since jok was inserted into the starting lineup (pat myself on the back because I figured he would become starter by the big 10 schedule or earlier) it becomes more important that Woody start as jok needs a rim protector that is in the correct position. Jok is obviously poor on defense. Which I...

To be honest I think fran has made them this way. This year he hasn't been as bad but last yr it seemed some of the players were looking over their shoulder afraid to make a mistake because of how he was. Now he isn't doing that same type of coaching but they are still playing that way. Uthoff...

Actually this yr in the big 10 he averaged 4.07 ypc. In 2013 he had a 4.12 ypc against the big 10. In 2012 he had a 4.5 ypc against the big 10. For a career against the big 10 of 4.2 ypc. i agree he got more carries than he should have but we and chuck need to remember that there were reasons...

I honestly think we need a 2 guard that can just flat out score. My vote would be Adam haluska. He could score from anywhere and provides size and rebounding from the 2. If he had played 4 yrs at iowa he would be the number 2 scorer in iowa history.

Scherff projects as either a guard or possibly could be a rt. some think he could develop into a lt, but i think he is a rt in the end. You don't typically spend a top 10 pick on a guard and that is why I think he ends up at rt.

It is about the guy running the offense. When gesell is off the court the offense gets stagnant. Clemmons isn't a pg and that is why clemmons was moved to the 2 guard and only backs gesell up at the pg.

When people wrote or talked about uhl before he got here I imagined a guy that played more like white or basabe. He has more of a skillset like Uthoff since I have seen him. His shot will fall as he develops but he is more 3 than 4.

It is simple...we had 3 committed qbs in the class. You typically don't have more than 2 schools qbs in a class. Usually you have only 1. So the scholly was taken away from 1 of the 3. This isn't as uncommon as people think even at iowa.

I get the knock on wadley about fumbling but so did tiki barber and he was able to fix it. Fumbling is something you can fix. Vision and quicks are not as easy to fix. Just look at mw those were his disadvantages. Daniels has the body and could be good but right now in limited reps by both I...

I separated the two. I said he worked hard on defense (from what I saw). And got some steals. He played better defense than he has all yr. I know the team wasn't good that they were playing but he gave effort on defense. Against a team like this you could just coast on defense and he did not. i...

Iowa has proven what it needs at rb...power with quickness and vision...think Greene, Russell, young, Hampton. That is what works best in our style. 1) Canzeri - he has 2 of the 3. The power is not there but he has added weight to help. Problem is he is injury prone. 2) wadley - he has shown 3...

He worked hard on defense and got some steals. He also tried to feed the post even when he was shooting so well. I think the offense is starting to click for him.

Might want to pick a game where they don't go a combined 1 for 7 from three pt range to make a statement like that.

It was on mediacom live. I found it at halftime. Watched half the game.

77 to 44

White with 10 pts, gesell with 6 assists, and Uthoff with 5 Rebs. Leaders for iowa. Gabe and jok each have 9 pts along with Uthoff contributing 8 pts. Lots of turnovers is the downside.

41 to 16 and gesell has 6 assists. I'm listening so can't say how anyone looks. Jok seems to be playing better.

Gesel with 4 asst before getting a break. Jok comes in and hits 2 shots and gets 2 steals. This could be big for him to get his shot as he is the pure scorer we need.
