Out-Rebounded, Out-Scored in the Paint, Out-Coached - Fran needs some big changes

I don't get Fran at all. Olaseni should be playing more minutes. They need to run the offense through the post 80 percent of the time. Gesell should have equal minutes with the other 2 PGs. No more. Oglesby needs to be on the end of the bench. I have never seen a guy miss so many shots, and still get to play this many minutes since little-Lick. What dirt does he have on coach Fran?

Out rebounded and out scored in the paint against a smaller team. The 2 areas we had to win to have any chance. Iowa couldn't run the break because ISU was not missing shots. Way too many set threes given up. Why isnt a guy up in Naz Long's grill at all times. He is the main guy you can't let get hot from 3, it opens everyone else up then. Niang played better when he brought the ball up full-court. No chance for Woody out there in that situation. Switch to zone on that please. Sloppy turnovers to start the 2nd half. Flat feet on D, and ISU had quick feet.

Fran is just not a good coach. Does not play to his strengths, and is too stubborn to change his style to fit his team. We can't shoot. I never want to see White shoot another 3 again. Done with Josh O. Time to get the young guys some bigger minutes.

Who was it that said Fran was a better hire than Fred. That guy needs taken behind the woodshed.

Loved the smootch to the crowd. BBall is all about attitude. Iowa has no swagger.
 
I lost it with how Fran coached this team in the second half! Why is Woodbury guarding Niang at 1/2 court? Why did we put Uhl on him for several possessions? How is our offense so bad?
