The only consistent with Fran McCaffery is a February swoon.

The Fran February Colapse.

Boy, gonna be a rough night for Fran if he loses this one with Dolphin drama too. Fran will never gain entire fanbase back. Never seen such a polarizing figure as him.

Coming into this game all local media and national pundits were talking about the bad matchup for Iowa and many predicting Maryland would win. Then when that happens their narrative shifts to “bad loss”, “Iowa is a fake”, “Cinderella story is over for Iowa”. It’s as if the national narrative...

Miller and Condon (Iowa fan), Ross (Iowa fan) & Williams, Murphy and Andy, Heather and Travis (Iowa fan) have been talking about this all week.

I am most definitely not a Cyclone fan but can admit I envy their programs success. While i hear on radio and online are Iowa fans just wanting to make the tourney, meanwhile talks of ISU conference championships and Elite 8s are nationally talked about and attainable. That’s inferiorating. All...

That’s another hair pulling frustration of Iowa basketball, letting some dude who isn’t good have a career day every game. Iowa is like the “slump buster” dudes circle.

Iowa showing why they can’t be trusted and afraid of success. Going to get ran out of this High School gym by Rutgers. Frustrating program. Iowa State blows out Conference leaders on the road. Iowa gets blown out by them and sprinkles in losses to bad teams just for good. Never trust Iowa...

NOT Fran that’s for sure.

I like the feeling of winning these games rather than losing them like that.

UNREAL. That never goes Iowa way. Wow.

This is McCaffery for you. What we get from him. Big wins essentially negated by horrible losses. Let the Franuary swoon begin.

“McCaffering” - losing bad games failing to take advantage of big opportunities after winning big games that give false hope

This. It’s Frans fault for the inconsistencies.

Iowa loses this game will essentially eliminate any goodwill Fran had built up. Proving why fans are hesitant to get their hopes up on this program. 1 step forward, 2 steps back.

Iowa State: Bad loss at home to purple team. Worst loss of season. Iowa: Hold my beer!

Iowa showing why they can’t have nice things very long.

Great win! However, March is what matters most. Fran makes it to a couple Sweet 16 and he can be considered along with Lute legacy wise. Sorry but Fran’s teams have been irrelevant in post season.

Iowa Basketball under Fran: 2012-13: Start 11-2, lose 7 of 10 2013-14: Start 19-6, lose 7 of 8 2014-15: Start 15-10, WIN 7 of 9 2015-16: Start 19-4, lose 7 of 10 2017-18: Start 11-12, lose 7 of 10 2018-19: Start 16-3, ??? This is why it’s difficult to be optimistic about Iowa basketball. Shows...

Here’s a scary thought, Garza having this great season has brought NBA talk as well. Was discussed this week on central Iowa radio. Possible with his size and footwork he’s better fit for pro than Cook.
