It's sad that the NCAA women's basketball final is being overshadowed by all this and the race card is being thrown around. Viewership was up and broke records. A platform was cemented to a level that women's basketball has never seen before. That is what we should be celebrating. AND that our...

The fourth foul/technical was huge. Clark mentioned in the post game that it did affect her driving, but also, she made mention that LSU also seemed to keep someone in the lane to stop her drives. Mulky made mention to this as well stating she knew that Clark would get her looks from behind the...

This debate is blowing up all over on social media. I think the comparisons everyone is talking about is the "You Can't See Me" motion. I will be the first to say, if you are going to dish it out, you best be ready to take it. Hence, why I don't really like any of it from any player including...

Petras was a miss in recruiting. Wasn't he a 4 or 5 star recruit out of California? I will admit that one fault of KF he tends to be loyal to the bone with starters. Take away some of the offensive woes of the line and play calling, and Petras just didn't seem to develop or get to that next...

Sadly, DJ has a striking resemblance to Aaron and with being such a polarizing figure along with his transgressions, I'm sure DJ struggled to escape the shadow of his brother. He left Iowa and I think he left football all together and started a roofing business if I remember correctly. I cannot...

Throw in how this will boost recruiting and with the transfer portal looming big in how teams retool, who knows what next year and the year after bring. Imagine being a player getting the chance to play with a player of the caliber of Clark? Say a Hailey Van Lith, who has ties to Clark for a...

Big Ten represented the tournament very well! Even with Indiana going down early, having 3 teams in the Final Four is a big statement.

It's been disheartening to see our O-line struggle the last couple years. What was once a strength has now become a glaring weakness. Is it players playing out of position? Youth? Technique? Or is it we are not getting the players we used to? Maybe it's Barnett? I am struggling find the right...

Good examples. I forget that JBo did take the point along with Connor. Mike Gessell!! Man, I forgot about him! He was solid!

I was almost physically sick watching Lee lose. I can only image how crushing of a blow this was to him mentally. There was some criticism about Lee medically forfeiting after the loss. I wish he could have came back to wrestle, but I am not going to question Brands or speak to that. What I...

My memory might be escaping me, but come to think of it, under Fran, I don't think we have had a really effective point guard. In the past it's been more of a "by committee" point guard. We've seen Touissant, CMc, JBo, Uhlis, Perkins, and even Bowen. Is it the offense or the philosophy? We...

Aren't we getting a big man from Belmont? IC kid? Two years left of eligibility?

I think Brands has done very well for the state of wrestling in general. The HWC is doing well. UFC affiliation. and while it's tough to deal with, we are still a Top 3 wrestling program. Penn State gave Cael a blank check. He has done well with it. But I would argue Brands has done a very good...

I think in many ways Fran probably got more out of this team than most expected. I did not think this team was a tourney team from the start we had in the Big Ten. I also wonder if fatigue set in. They overachieved much of the season and gave us some awesome games, but then also some letdowns...

I agree, it would be nice to see him getting some playing time. When allowed to get some reps, he has represented himself very well. I think he has unfortunately been in situations where he tends to always be behind a big name or high draft pick. At least he is getting paid, and will likely walk...

Absolutely. I don't really see us having any bigs on our current roster that will be ready. Mulvaney seems more like a project, but it would be nice getting someone out of the portal.

LOL. Agreed. It's the Hawkeye fan speaking from the heart. But I cannot see him staying for any reason beyond thinking he can increase his position. He possess the frame and all the tools. He will get paid somewhere. Been a joy to watch both Keegan and Kris. Great story of two legacy players...

I also want to give some love to Rebraca. Very improved player from even last year. He balled out this year. Being 6'9 in the Big Ten and taking on a lot of big men, I thought he did a heckuva job. Well deserved recognition. Improved in all facets of his game.

My heart wants him to come back, but my head tells me he should go. A lot of these guys before they declare get a lot of feedback from experts, as well as work towards refining skill set before they go. I wish Kris the best of luck regardless of his decision. I think he has the tools to play...

We can agree to disagree. That's the great thing about this forum. You think I am wrong. I would disagree. I don't say KF is without fault. Any position of power and that is in the spotlight is going to likely receive criticism. And sadly, you can have a career of doing everything right for...
