Odds are:

Some key player blows out a knee
Some key player transfers or declares early
Some key player flunks out
The team stars hot then has mental problems, or the reverse but:
Iowa plays Duke, Kentucky, or xyz 1 or 2 seed in the 2nd round after getting a piss poor seeding and gets promptly blown out or lose a close game (and that said team goes on to win the NCAAs and Iowa gives them their best game in the tourney).

Not your 1st rodeo eh?
 
I bet Cook gets drafted and actually plays in the NBA this season. Iowa probably national champs and 3 time B1G champs next three years because of Kreiner tho

I bet because of this team's performance the last two games, they decide to turn our team into Iowa's first NBA franchise. I mean Bohannon already shoots most of his shots from NBA range anyway, so it makes sense.

You guys are punch drunk lol. Enjoy the highs on this roller-coaster season because I'm guessing another drop is coming soon. That said though I love this team and so much fun to watch and root for.
 
He's physically gifted but I don't think he's a very high IQ player and he let a 300+ plus white guy drive full court to go right by him for a layup tells you all you need to know about his defense.

And Another great example on the likelyhood he won't be around.
 
I like Pemsl and Kreiner both more than Cook. He won't play defense and if he can't dunk or get a lay up basically doesn't score, and for a guy with hops and long arms isn't a good rebounder either. He might eventually be a stud, and glad we have him, but sure needs more work.
 
Cook is extremely talented but...

Doesn't have a "shot"

Doesn't box out

Watches others rebound

Struggles at the line

Dabbles with defense much like Jok

All can be fixed with coaching and desire...

(nice to see a Hawk standing dead under the rim, get the ball, and jam it one handed with ease)

I'm not sure we even make the tournament in 2019, so I'd take that bet. Depends how long Cook stays around.

Wuuut? That's crazy. They'd make the tourney without Cook just based on the players/depth they have now getting experience. Then add in the recruiting classes coming up. Problem that Fran will have is trying to find them all minutes.

If they don't make the tournament in 2019, I will be very disappointed.
