Patrick McCaffery & Joe Toussaint Sign with Hawkeyes

Once he puts on 30 more pounds and decides to make the same amount of effort on defense as he does on offense, PMac might be a nice addition to the team.

I don't think anyone is expecting Pat to be a star. He is going to be coming off the bench for at least his first three years as Joe W should be here all four years. I don't know how anyone can complain about a top 100 kid coming in to be a bench player, possibly as a walk on. Much the same as everyone shat all over Conner. Just because his dad is the coach most of this board is going to hate him. Most have come around on Conner. I suspect Pat will be much the same type of player in terms of a good role player but isn't going to put up big stat lines. Probably a good chance he takes over the Baer role. Every team needs that type of player.

I will be shocked if Pat isn't a starter until his senior season.

You’re the one that’s brought it on... criticism from this site that is. Nobody to blame but yourself.

I haven’t seen Patrick in person this year but I’m starting to get the feeling he may be able to contribute sooner than I thought.

Connor has shown some of how his basketball IQ can help overcome his lack of playmaking/shooting

Patrick may not be as strong as we’d hope but he’s played against good competition and has the pedigree.

Similar to Connor, I could see him fitting in to a role player early in his careeer. But I do think Patrick has a much higher ceiling than Connor.
