From what I have heard from a lot of posters it looked like the Iowa we have grown to wonder about? I didn't have a chance to see it but in looking at the results and comments the jury is out and probably wont be even deliberating until after next week when we play someone
I wish I felt better about it all but I just cant McCaffery has been at Iowa for 8 years He is 151-120 and 67-75 in Big Ten. Been to the tournament 2 1/2 times (Play in games are worth .5) Beat a powerhouse Davidson and tipped in in at the buzzer against Temple. I always hear how good a coach he is (mostly from other Big Ten coaches) but I just find that record to be less than great. Last year I think even opposing coaches would not call it a great coaching job?
On top of that he has proven to have difficulty recruiting the difference makers. Cook was pretty highly touted but not a one and done type and for that matter not a 3 and done type. He may leave early but most likely not for the NBA. Wiekamp looks to be a good recruit but he was always coming to Iowa as that appears to be his dream.
Ok it is the first game and who knows but I still dont feel very good about it Ill check back in a couple of weeks
