Carton Update

Well if he's playing blackjack, he'd hit and just need a face card to have 19. Not a bad hand.

This might explain Fran's recruiting/coaching. He's playing blackjack and everyone else is playing Hold em.

 

[HawkGold]

Which is saying that you are assuming no constant development at either program.

No not in my post.

He must have bluffed his way into getting Cook and Wieskamp then.

And Garza. The East Coast isn't anywhere near Iowa. So it wasn't about being close to home, parents, etc.

He's what, 17? Of course he is.

"My top six isn't a final six," Carton said. "I'm still open with my recruiting."

Carton admitted if a blue blood offered, it would change his outlook.

This is definitely an ominous quote.

I think the word honest fits better than ominous. And this quote is out of context. He made it pretty clear he won't commit just because a big name offers.

Obviously. Probably why Cook couldn't wait to get out of town, even though everyone knew he wasn't draft worthy. Weiskamp is risking his career now.

Cook's mom said Tyler really liked Fran and his teammates. I don't think you're correct there.

There's no reason to think Weiskamp is risking his career. That's just baseless. If he's good-which it appears he is-he'll be able to showcase his skills just fine at Iowa. Fran's had two guys drafted in the 2nd round and Weiskamp appears to have more potential than either of those two guys, who were pretty fair players.

The fact that any of you respond to this guy still is comical. Cook didn't leave. He could have, he didn't. Couldn't hardly wait LOL. Wieskamp risking his career? Lol, do you guys really read that and nod your head yes to this dude? He can't even spell the kids name right.

If Weiskamp is NBA material he can get there from going to Iowa.

Joe's talent and work ethic are already established, so he has that going for him. Fran's record speaks for itself and it isnt good.

He's got talent and a strong work ethic. Fran had nothing to do with that. So, he might get there. Playing for Fran won't help his cause any.

I won't lose sleep over it either way.
Fran's had 8 years and he's accomplished nothing. . Not a championship has been won. Not a banner has been hung.

Oh yeah?? What do you call that 2013 NIT runner-up banner then, Chief?

Lol. Is there really a banner hanging for NIT runner up? Stop pulling my leg. No self respecting competitor would hang such a thing.

No self respecting sports observer (you) should question what the actual self respecting competitors consider an achievement.

Thanks for the tip, bro.

I haven't been there in awhile, but I do believe that they hang the NIT banners.

Reason # 756.......
