Please respond if you can help me understand some of these basketball questions:

1. When Iowa needs to press and is shooting Free Throws, why don't they sub in (in hopes the FT is made) to set up the press?
2. Down 6 and needing a 3, why does the best 3 point shooter drive to the basket?
3. Why is the most athletic big man not in on defense on an end out of bounds play to protect the basket?

I will stop with those three, but it has been mentioned on here time and time again that this team lacks Basketball IQ. Does that run top down? I hate to question these things, but I am tired of banging my head against the wall with the same game being played over and over and over. These games are like the movie groundhog day.
 
Fran should talk to Mr. Davis about pressing....with the exception of when playing MSU. :) I would like to see the press extended like Mr. Davis use to do guarding the inbounder more and trying to trap the corner.

In game coaching and adjustments (like Kirk) is starting to become troublesome/apparent with Fran. Agreed with all your points.
