I really don’t wanna be that guy...but gonna do it anyway...
We just lost 3 black players and a black assistant...so it begs the question...is it merely a coincidence or is there something else going on? How can Iowa State, a university whose student population is as white bread as they come, attract black players....but UI, whose campus is way more diverse than ISUs, struggles to attract/retain black players anything close to approaching an average college basketball team...

I would bet that we hear his name some next year. If he gets in the right situation he can be really good. When he was on, he was the best player on the court

Rotation problem solving itself...typically does. If he were leaving and we had 2 players not named McCaffery would these posts be the same. Being named McCaffery doesn’t mean they can’t play. Moss would have helped us. But the jury is out on the end result.
Two of our weaker defenders are more now gone. We wanted a better defensive team right?

Lol. Moss was one of our better if not our best perimeter defender.

Iowa is gonna make Adolph Rupp’s teams look diverse.

I would think if a player on any team transfers from his current team he's hoping to either play more minutes or doesn't like what's going on around him. I would wager he didn't like his disappearance in some of the games this year for whatever reason. Never could figure out Fran's rotations in some of the games. I recall Moss on fire in one game and sure enough Fran sits him down. My dog hid under the bed after I went off on that move by Fran. Good luck Moss. Wish you were staying.

I get what you are saying, but does losing those 2 really make Iowa better defensively? More efficient on the offense end? Yes, the argument can be made. Defensively, the jury is still out.

He may not have left for more minutes, but it's very possible that he left because he doesn't want fewer minutes, which is what he most likely would have gotten next year.

He actually makes a little less actually.

But did we get one? Haven't seen CJ, Joe T or PMac play defense against BIG teams. We could be worse. As hard as that is to imagine.

Unless he’s issued a waiver. So not quite yet, so yes what you said is irrelevant.

He'd be banking on Pat being strong enough to guard threes and Joe being quick enough to guard twos.
Our defense could look a lot like it did two years ago. I doubt that CJ is a defensive stopper.

lol. Wow! He was terrible. But I still would have liked him back.
Wieskamp can guard 2s better than anyone else we had on the team this year.
