He may also want to go home to play basketball. After all, Greece pays the least for pro salaries and they are higher than G league salaries. And in many other leagues in Europe, he could make the minimum which is at least 6 figures.

Overstating how? You do realize that the top 9 rookies drafted all made over $20 million and the entire first round all made over $10 million. Nothing to sneeze at.

No. The Murray twins graduated from CR Prairie. With only a Western Illinois offer and with their dad's help, they went to DME Academy in what would have been their college freshman year. The twins are 21 right now (my age when I graduated from college) and will be 22 in August.

To play Devil's Advocate, Sven Nater didn't start a game in college and averaged 3 points and 3 rebounds a game (backup to Bill Walton), yet had a 12 year pro career in the ABA and the NBA. Only player to lead both leagues in rebounding.

22? When the season starts this year he will be 25. (From the Hawkeye web site, it states his birthday is 9/3/97)

It all boils down to the fact that when Iowa can't get transition baskets, we are a jump shooting team. Sometimes jump shots go in and sometimes they clang. Against Richmond, they clanged. Yes, the game was physical; yes, they mugged us on D (which the refs across the NCAA tournament have...

Seriously? Worse than the 1981 first round loss to Wichita State with Lute's going to the 4-corners offense to start the second half when we were ahead by 11 at halftime? Worse than the 1978 first round loss to Toledo when we were up 12 at halftime (after we tied for the Big 10 Championship)...

No. This was NOT the reason Alford was fired.

Did anyone watch the Illinois game today? Kofi had three guys grabbing his arms on most plays and not much was called.

I see him going to the league. You never know what will happen. Remember Shaun Livingston? He committed to Duke but jumped immediately to the NBA. In what would have been his junior year at Duke, going in for a relatively uncontested layup and completely tore up his knee. If he hadn't gone when...

The "Stupid NET" is what the NCAA selection committee primarily uses for the brackets. And as I type this, the "7th place in the Mountain West Utah State" has a NET rating of 61 while the ACC Virginia has a NET rating of 82 (lower than Northwestern at 76). Currently Iowa is at 18; in the Big 10...

While at Allegheny, KOK ran a shotgun with at least 4 wideouts for offense while compiling a 79-10-1 record. That's a little bit different than we saw when he was OC. Davis ran mostly his own offense - we still ran a lot of zone blocking running plays. Brian got rid of the horizontal passing...

The thing I'd take issue with you is that Twitter, along with Facebook, Instagram, and all the other big social media, is NOT subject to the First Amendment. If it was, no one would be banned.

Just to clear up a point, a steal for Team A is a turnover for Team B. So of Indiana's 23 turnovers, 15 were steals by Iowa. That means 8 were unforced turnovers.

At this point in time: Jon Diebler minutes played: 4688 Jordan Bohannon minutes played: 4651 So he STILL has less minutes played than Diebler. Plus Jordan is averaging only 23.7 minutes per game this year, the lowest minutes per game in his career.

My brother was in the Hawkeye marching band and they would play the fight song for a first down... if they didn't play it then, they wouldn't be able to play it at all because they simply didn't score that much, FGs or TDs.

On a side note, Parker Hesse is now playing TE for the Atlanta Falcons. Caught 3 passes on Sunday.

Not sure it was entirely Petras. He didn't "bail out" and he didn't move his hands during the snap. I'd say it was 50-50 on that exchange. And what happened was Kentucky brought in their big-guy package and had two MLB's in the gaps between their nose and tackles. Not sure they could have got...

https://www.espn.com/college-football/recap?gameId=322942294 From the article: "The Hawkeyes lost starting offensive linemen Brandon Scherff and Andrew Donnal to apparent leg injuries in the opening quarter -- in a span of just three plays, no less."

I've said this before, but I believe we need to change the seating setup for CHA. The lowest area, the non-permanent seating, should be nothing but students. There is even a rail there that separates, which could be used so the students could stand the entire game if they want. It's what places...
