Are we as bad as we think we are?

Hokks beat Colorado 80-73 on neutral court.

Colorado beats No. 4 Arizona State 90-81.

Buffs currently dominating No. 14 Arizona 45-34.

 

[tksirius]

Yes, beating CU was simply the Pentagon effect. Iowa's always played fantastic in the Pentagon.

 

[NEIChawk]

Yes, we are as bad as we think we are, maybe worse. I see the Ilini took another loss today. Are they worse than Iowa? Or visa versa? Is this what we all thought going into the 2017-2018 season? I didn't. I just Fran would get into it a little more, maybe the players will respond

With Fran as the Coach yes.. I personally don’t think Iowa is this bad..

 

[tweeterhawk]

UPDATE: Buffs hold on 80-77. Which w two Colorado wins over ranked opponents should put us No. 3 if not 2. This week’s rankings are out Monday. Where do you think we’ll be?

We don't have very many players on the roster with a lot of good P5 offers. That's only part of the problem. Piss poor coaching is the bigger problem.

I watched Mich/Ill. Illinois was not that far out of it. They are fast and athletic. Two things Iowa is not. Iowa's only chances for wins are Wisconsin/Indiana/Minnesota. And those chances aren't very good.

Creighton is the only school on that list that plays good basketball. And they are a mid-major program.

Please provide evidence for your statement.

Please provide evidence for your statement.

The evidence is on any recruiting site

 

[HawkGold]

Wiyhout a point guard the answer is probably. The defict will be amplified against top level teams. Villinova would destroy this team as before. Fran has no Jok or other scorer.

We are in trouble against any team with a quick effective point. That equates to a lot of remaining teams.
