No, it really doesn't. Iowa was an explosive offensive team a couple years ago, but they were hardly a heavyweight. Explosive offense means you can score points in bunches. Doesn't mean you're going to shoot the lights out every night or that you play any defense.

Oh for ****'s sake.

Make ******* free throws and this game is ours. How is this such an issue for a team full of shooters that has always been a strong foul shooting team?

I wouldn't hold my breath that he lights it up when Clemmons is the one guarding him most of the night.

It's harder to meet the criteria for a sixth year. IIRC, you have to meet certain requirements over multiple seasons to earn the 6th year. Like say you missed an entire year and then 8 out of 12 games in a second year. A guy who misses 8 of 12 games may not get a fifth year, but the guy who...

I said I doubt it. If I knew I was right, chances are I would have said that.

Duke's problem isn't a lack of talent. I wouldn't be shocked at all if they went on a 2014 UCONN-like run as a lower seed.

1. The TE's we're talking about are far from slow. 2. The guy who absolutely torched Clemson in the NCG was a TE. 3. Iowa had a solid group of TE's this year, but none of them were elite. Fant, Cook and Hockenson all have the potential to be elite.

Pretty sure he's won the dunk contest at the Black and Gold Blowout every year since he's been here. Players have consistently said he's the best dunker on the team the last few years.

Would Sapp still be here if Ulis had signed? I know he came back last year feeling like he had something to prove, but he might have decided to go elsewhere if Fran had brought in one of the best PG recruits in the country.

They hit WR pretty hard the last few years at the expense of recruiting for the trenches, which left us a little thin on both sides up front. I'm guessing next year's class will have more WR's, but we really needed an infusion of talented depth up front.

No way do I see Fant moving to defense. All I can do is picture having Fant and Cook in our 2-TE looks. That'd be our own little version of Gronk/Hernandez with a pair of matchup nightmares.

That's actually the one thing he says that I can buy into. Not everyone is the same, and there are people who play long careers and haven't had issues. Same applies to people who use tobacco products; not all of them wind up with cancer. They're all susceptible to it, but some are more...

Getting a sixth year has is different than getting a fifth one. I haven't read up on the player you mentioned, but I'm pretty sure someone who missed a lot of time throughout their career can qualify for the sixth year, even if they didn't miss an entire season.

They can't be testing it on too many people, since it would require families to donate the brains for testing. But I do doubt that it would be very prevalent among those who haven't played collision sports.

There's a difference between saying he needs to rediscover his stroke and saying he needs to develop one.

Not enough that there's any excuse for the crowd at Carver being as pathetic as it has been when the team is a legitimate Final Four contender. Even for big games, Carver these days doesn't hold a candle to many other atmospheres in the conference. It gets loud for a few seconds when a big play...

And all of those shots were 15-foot jumpers, I'm sure. If you've watched Gesell play for the last three years, it shouldn't take any convincing to make you understand he's absolutely a threat to knock down the 15-footer. His mid-range pull up game has been his bread and butter for 3+ years...

1. That figure was just CR and IC. That's not taking into account Coralville (20k+) or North Liberty (14k+), or any of the surrounding small communities. You're clearing 250k without any of the people driving to Carver from places like Solon, Riverside, etc. 2. This wasn't an issue in the...

The odds are probably lower, but then again, there's a lot of information we don't know. How many people who only played high school football over the last 50 years went on to suffer these symptoms and were never diagnosed with CTE because it wasn't discovered yet?
