Lohaus and Jepsen (The Pride of Bowbells) don't make my list. They both only scored in double digits their senior year and really didn't contribute a ton until then. Adam Woodbury never did score double digits, but started all but one game in his career at Iowa and was very good defensively...

If not this season, when? Yes, there have been disappointments before. Personally, I thought the '13-'14 and '14-'15 teams were going to be really good, but the former flamed out down the stretch and the latter ran into Gonzaga in the second round of the NCAA's, but also lost too many home...

I am of the opposite view. I hope everyone BUT the Murrays redshirt, and it's because of what occurred with Olaseni. I would have loved to have him for one more year as a developed player rather than have him play a few minutes as a freshman as a raw recruit. We currently have plenty of...

FWIW, Dickie V tweeted that Luka joined his teammates for the first voluntary workout. FYI / doesn’t mean @LukaG_55 is definitely going to return to @IowaHoops for 2020-21 season but he did show up today for the 1st voluntary practice in Iowa City .There is no doubt he loves playing for all the...

Discovering that Kirk was the reverse Hoiberg was really an eye opener. If you believe DJK, that is.

I read today that the NCAA has extended the June 3rd date for players considering jumping to the NBA this year. They've left it open for now based on the NBA's plans for actually having the draft. What we do know is that unless Luka just outright makes a decision, we may have to wait even...

McCaffery gives the kids a say in whether they want to redshirt or not. I highly doubt that the Murrays' will want to be separated. And going by the recruiting videos, although limited, it would appear that Ogundale is the least ready to step in and play at this level.

Anthony Tucker was another kid who couldn't put his drink down long enough to stay on the court. I think he finally quit drinking and may be still playing overseas.

I think Luka has until June 3rd to make the decision. Way too long for us fans to wait.

I went with JoeT.. I think toward the end of the season, you could see the progress he was making toward being a really fine player in the B1G. He is strong and fearless and his shot started coming around. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see him wind up as at least the 2nd team All-B1G PG by...

You guys are making me HUNGRY!

I'd like to see Ulis, Perkins and Ogundele redshirt unless they are so talented, they force McCaffery to play them. The Murray twins will be 20 years old this fall, so I expect them to play. I would think that it is rare to have 21 years old redshirt freshmen.

It's not like this is the first time Izzo has either tried to negate or ignore sexual assault involving his players, or in one case, his asst. coach.

USA Today named Toppen.

Some of the AP voters are so stupid, I doubt they even know what defensive metrics are. Two of the idiots didn't even put Luka on the AP 1st Team.

Well, in that case, assuming we are trying to protect a lead, we might have both JBo and JoeT on the floor at the end of games. Both are excellent FT shooters.

To some degree I think it depends on how much JoeT improves his game over the summer. He needs to cut down on his TO's and improve his outside shot, although it was looking pretty good down the stretch. I trust both of these players to not make it an issue no matter who starts.

Don't know the answer to the OP's riddle, but I do now that Garza did get screwed and that's not just a butthurt Iowa fan talking. By almost any INDIVIDUAL standard, Garza had better numbers and played a much tougher schedule. If the POY award has somehow become "best college player on a team...

Bobby Knight changed the game of basketball with his emphasis on physical man to man defense, but they were nothing by today's standards. Today's officiating has changed the game from basketball to rugby, and certain obvious coaches have decided to take advantage of it assuming that the refs...
