These all look like very talented players. Each of them have the ability to become a great player at the University of Iowa. To go along with their natural ability the coaching staff at the University of Iowa is top notch at developing player's talents to reach their full potential. I would expect one of the recruits to commit to the University of Iowa soon.
These kids are probably looking at a redshirt their first season with Bohannon/Dailey being seniors and Connor being the immediate backup. Hopefully they're aware of that and cool with taking a season to develop at the college level.
According to people on this forum, Bohannon is a 2, Dailey is a 3, and Connor is a 1 but not a "true 1". A true 1, aka someone who plays defense first with a lot of quickness to cut off driving lanes, would certainly see playing time right away. We need defensive stoppers more than anything, and driving the lane successfully would definitely earn a place on offense. No waiting required.
There are lots of teams that would love to have Bohannon.While I don't disagree with any of that...I think Fran does. If Bohannon stays healthy he's going to shatter the assist record at Iowa. I think thats all the ammo Fran needs to claim he's a PG
Dude is going to improve as well. A lot of ambition in that family.There are lots of teams that would love to have Bohannon.
I don't think anyone on this board has issues with Bohannan's offense. He can shoot from 3, he can hit the mid-range floater, he's one of the best free throw shooters in college basketball, his turnovers are reasonable, he shows good savvy, and he facilitates well. He knows how to feed post players at an angle where they can do something with the ball, not a skill every point guard has, and that's part of the reason Cordell Pemsl was something like 60% from the field his freshman year.
There's this other end of the floor that's part of basketball, too. And he needs a lot of improvement at that end. A lot of our defensive breakdowns begin because he can't stay in front of his man and the scramble begins. Let's see how much he's worked on that over the summer. And how much ambition he has to improve his defense.

Yes, I thought about that after I posted, which was just before leaving for work. I also forgot to add that he has already hit big shots in his career, game winners and otherwise.I would add dribble drive on O being missing. That and D.

His defensive deficiencies are so brutal and so basic. Forget about the athleticism and height challenges for a minute.I don't think anyone on this board has issues with Bohannan's offense.

He could have had many more assists if he would have been able to pass the ball quicker, but he was usually guarded so closely by one or even, sometimes two opponents. There were many times that he missed people on the wings ahead of him that might have led to baskets, especially Moss.....
Actually, it is somewhat remarkable that he has as many assists as he does, he is an extremely savvy and courtwise player.....
