If you've watched Iowa basketball even casually during FM's tenure, and especially over the last 2 years, there is no way you can deny that Iowa lacks a true PG who can get Iowa into their offense as well as stop dribble penetration from the top of the key. It's not the fault of any of the players who play that position currently. They aren't true PG's. They lack the lateral quickness that it takes in today's game.I wonder what the narrative will be if Joe T comes in, is a "true" PG, can break down the defense and guard on the defensive end and struggles continue? What will be the go to theme then?
Iowa's PG deficiency is more than a "narrative." Ask any of the last 4 teams who've beat Iowa by pressuring the hell out it's guards and beating them off the dribble consistently.
