Stoermer and Stubbs really aren't PG's and aren't anywhere near quick enough to even attempt to guard an opposing PG at this level. I think Murphy will be there for the start of Fall workouts along with Floyd.

How are the kids? Since nothing I post shows up here, I thought I'd try a post about nothing.

I like that idea, but it will never happen. Doesn't fit the ethics of the day.

This new guy ain't messin' around! :)

Wrong board.

He got a full ride to a convent.

Spanky, to the best of my knowledge Fran McCaffery hasn't signed a contract to this day. Kirk Ferentz worked at Iowa for a long period without a signed contract. It's not at all uncommon for coaches to start work before the contract has been signed. An oral contract can be binding if the...

He was quoted as saying the staff told him they wouldn't recruit another PG.

What kind of an injury did Cole sustain?

I think someone is trying to encourage Brennan. I hope he gets it all together. He must want to try or he wouldn't still be there.

You are out of your mind, on virtually all counts of that post. By the way, the only source on Stubbs being a preferred walkon thus far is his father. If Branden Stubbs ever ends up with an Iowa basketball scholarship, either he will have improved exponentially or something will have gone...

You don't know much about our offense or about McCabe. A guy who's 6'6'-6'7 and can run, handle, pass and shoot will fit in this system very well. Is he a high flyer? No. However, he is an excellent athlete.

I'm a Hopmasters sub and while much of the content isn't of interest (I can only stand a certain amount of Summer AAU drivel), there is more than enough to make it worthwhile for an Iowa fan.

I doon't think there's a limit on walk-ons participating in your program, but there may be a conference rule on numbers who can travel, dress or sit on the bench.

Can't sign anything that biinds him to Iowa. Got to keep the wolves at bay until enrollment.

Fran wants to attack the basket. I won't be surprised to see Cartwright and Payne on the floor together some this season.

They don't want recruiting to become a public war of words between coaches about who's more interested or which school is the better place for a kid. I think it's a very good rule and I would feel even more so if I were a coach. It's bad enough that they have to pander to these kids in private...

A little later in the interview he said "hopefully he signs with us," but I agree, it sounds like Fran is pretty confident they're about to sign someone. By the way that quote establishes at least one thing for sure: The prospective recruit is male. :p

If it is Lamb, that could be a reason why the staff wanted it hush-hush. Players who are assumed to have signed after committing may not attract attention and if it were widely known that he was not signed you can bet there would be multiple suitors for any player with stats like that. I...

Ahh! Good to see that I can post here again! Good interview Jon, I was lucky to catch it thanks to your post which I read literally at 7:05 a.m.
