We had only a handful of what I thought were defensive lapses. Mostly Garza, his head just wasn't in it or something. But for the most part we made it tough on them and after what they just did to MSU at their place that in and of itself deserves a 'woah'Iowa ran some wonderful halfcourt offense last night. The ball moved well.
Moss was a bit sideways so C Mac was the better option last night.
Against Michigan, Iowa leaned on Garza, Joe W and Kriener. Last night it was Cook and J-Bo. Tough team to defend.
And when it plays defense, it’s a solid squad.
If Cook returns this will be a hell of a team next fall. Only losing Baer, Cook, Jbo as seniors,, soph. year for Joe, Pemsl and Nunge filling Baer spot. Be able to Redshirt Patrick to get some meat on his bones. Hopefully Cook realizes he isnt ready for the leagueThe perfect 2019-2020 wishful thinking season ................Cook returns.
If you read quotes from Cook, Iowa players, and Fran at the beginning of the year it was pretty apparent that this is Cook’s last year. I have not heard anything recently that would change that, I just think that is kind of wishful thinking by Iowa fans. To me Iowa having a successful season only makes it easier for TC to go, getting the NCAA tournament monkey off his back. Tyler has always felt he was an NBA guy and that was always his goal, nothing wrong with that.
Now, whether or not that would be a smart decision for TC and whether or not he would actually get drafted is a completly different story. The NBA G league is filled with guys who left college early because they thougt they were NBA guys.
I agree. Next year he might make all of his dunks. That alone increases his scoring average 2 points a game.I think last year sucked so bad that a lot of people had an itch to leave. If he's happy now, it's easier to make the "right" decision. People who don't think Cook improved this year are blind. He made a huge jump from last year to this year. If he makes that same jump next year he has a legit shot at the NBA. If he leaves this year the odds would be considerably lower.

Yeah, no kidding. It's got to be one-per-game.Cook has to be dead last in the nation in dunk make percentage.
