So that's 7 freshman. If we graduate all of them at the same time, that's going to change the team in a hurry. Hopefully Fran can pickup a star player each of the next 3 years to offset the huge attrition in 2016.... Having one of those 7 redshirt would be good, too. Maybe the one who is in the dog house at the moment??
stokes isn't a freshman he just has a different number this year.
BJ's number. Gesell had better bring it.
I thought BJs # was retired too. And if it's not it sure should be.
It is retired. Not sure what is up with that? I am assuming they would ask permission for that to happen. Out of respect, I would not wear that jersey. Not like there are no other #s to choose from...
I don't think Iowa retires numbers, but rather jerseys. I think that's the distinction.
I see one positive aspect to it. When these guys are seniors, we will have a team that Will make noise in the Dance.....
Their Junior year is the one I am really looking forward to, other than this season.....
This years freshman and Uthoff next year will make an extraordinary senior year. Yes I am an hopeless Homer......
Thank you, Hawkstrat.....It doesn't require much homerism to think a team with 6 seniors, one being a top 50 center recruit, one a top 100 pg recruit and another top 150 sf, will be pretty good.
