Joe Looonardy is a tool. He lost all respect when he joined ESPN... had a little when he was still with the College Blue Ribbon pub.
I agree with those who already have said that Purdue is toast this coming year and may be back the following year. Why all the love for Wisky (at 4?) good chance that Iowa will sweep them again.
Iowa will compete against everyone next year including OH ST, MI ST, and IU. They will win a couple of those matches against those teams.
Michigan has a great class coming in but will struggle with chemistry and outside shooting.
Minny is scary, however, and hopefully Iowa can split.
Unless Iowa has several injuries, a death, or some horrible off court incident... they are a LOCK for the 2013 NCAA tourney. Mark my words.
