    Evelyn Expectations

    No chance Touissaint redshirts in my humble opinion. If JBo plays, that means he is 100% healthy. It would give us a potentially LETHAL shooting team. Imagine Evelyn or Joe T breaking down their man and kicking out to open shooters like JBo, Wieskamp or Fredrick or dumping off to Garza/Nunge...

    Kiyron Powell Sees Iowa as Excellent Opportunity

    Obviously, I am making assumptions, but Wieskamp is a good 3-point shooter. CJ Fredrick shot 48% his senior year in high school, that is impressive. Evelyn shot 38% his sophomore year, I’m hopeful he is injury free this season. Connor will be better, he has to be. All of our bigs, with the...

    Kiyron Powell Sees Iowa as Excellent Opportunity

    100% correct. It is going to be very difficult to play in your jock man defense like Rutgers, Illinois and others played if our guards can get around their man on the dribble. If defenses start sagging back, we can shoot the lights out. We will be much better at getting the opposing defense out...

    Kiyron Powell Sees Iowa as Excellent Opportunity

    You’re absolutely right, but I think it’s a good thing. While I appreciate what Moss and Cook did for the program, I was becoming increasingly frustrated with their inconsistency and lack of significant improvement from year to year. I thought the offense bogged down as Cook tried to create...

    Kiyron Powell Sees Iowa as Excellent Opportunity

    Me too. Can you imagine if all three of them (along with Wieskamp) can take their man off the dribble? It would create havoc; easy dumpoffs to bigs, floaters, kick-outs to shooters, etc. Last season, we basically had Wieskamp and he didn’t do it that often. I am cautiously excited about our...

    Bakari Evelyn

    If he can do this along with CJ Fredrick and Joe T, this team is going to be DAMN fun to watch!

    Plan is to Play Patrick McCaffery this Season

    I couldn’t disagree more with this post. I think he is very well suited to play the #3. He is long, but quick with good footwork and solid handles. He runs like a deer and has serious hops too. I can’t wait to see JT pushing on the break with JW and PMac filling on the outside. Defensively, he...

    Grad transfer impacts

    Moss is going to have to play MUCH better defense if he is going to get minutes at KU.

    Story: Bakari Evelyn Not Concerned w/ Competing Against Connor McCaffery

    I read some comments on another site this morning from a poster that observed practices this past season. If these observations turn out to be true, I think Moss saw the writing on the wall. Specifically, even fewer minutes for him. This poster made another comment that "CJ Fredrick was carving...

    Story: Bakari Evelyn Not Concerned w/ Competing Against Connor McCaffery

    Yes. If we land Evelyn, it likely gives us three guards (Joe T. and CJ also) that have the ability to get by their man from the perimeter. Last season, we didn’t have one, including Moss. Wieskamp did it a few times and I’m hoping he’ll do it more as he becomes a larger part of the offense. It...

    Bakari Evelyn

    I like the idea of being able to use Evelyn and Joe T on the floor at the same time when we are playing teams with super quick guards. They could also wreak havoc getting into the lane and finding guys for dumpoffs or open 3's.

    Bakari Evelyn

    Excellent points. I would add that he is pretty thick, can get to the rack and score through contact. I like it.

    Bakari Evelyn

    He averaged 12.6 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists/game his sophomore year. He shot 51% on 2 pointers and 38% on 3's. Solid.

    Bakari Evelyn

    I am VERY excited about this kid. He is big, quick and has good handles. It sounds like he has a great relationship with Coach Dillard also.
