Two scenarios from Hell

[Fryowa]

Oh...now your alt screen name got exposed and you're gonna follow my posts around in some pathetic attempt to exact revenge. Nice! I'm not confused about you. If that helps you feel any better.

Guys...

I found @Joshbrown ^^^

Iowa athletics focuses on building citizens.

Iowa athletics focuses on young men and women getting a degree.

Iowa athletics focuses on teaching our youth the blessings of being part of a team.

That is the win/win/win scenario that losing programs most often tout as their philosophy.

This is why you don't give a coach 8 years, 9 years, 10 years for mediocre results. Not if you're serious about winning. Gutless Gary is not serious about winning and that much should be painfully obvious to everyone.

We are so good at it here at Iowa that we did it with two head coaches.

And as long as the $ continue to pour in from ticket sales, donations, and B1G revenue - Bruce Harreld looks across the river and views a black ledger.

Our University (athletes coaches) stay out of the paper, gets a few wins for its peasant fans, and has The Wave.

The UI AD or Admin could give a shit about the fans or winning championships.

Patrick won't see the floor. I don't care how many gold star stickers Rivals gives him. People have said for the past 3 years, "Just wait and maybe (probably) he'll put on weight..."

It hasn't happened and it isn't going to. It's not his fault, but people just don't put mass on after radiation. Someone with his frame will get leveled in the Big Ten. Hell, Garza even gets pushed around and he has 70 pounds on him. Those big dunks and blocks he gets on AAU kids? Not gonna happen against a 245 lb Nick Ward.

P6 basketball is not bean pole AAU, guys. That's where Fran has gone wrong with his recruiting IMO. He has exactly one player out of 9 with some physicality in a league that depends on it.

Big tall white guys who can’t jump or block shots, slow guards that can’t penetrate, defend, or create their own shots combined with a YMCA type of offense. It’s sad to watch other teams set up plays and pass the ball around in and out then back in to the post player for an easy lay up or slam. Our version is a lucky bounce on a brick shot that clangs off the rim to an player who just happens to be standing open near the basket. .

Of course the season is still young and adjustments can be made to improve play. It better happen soon or this could snowball just like it did last year.

Yep, that pretty well sums it up.

 

[PCHawk]

You said it was "so dumb". I guess I got confused.

Dumb pretty much meant unfortunate.

OK. That is unfortunate for us.

Winning programs have leaders who want to win, strive to win, expect to win. We could use some of that. As long as "The Brotherhood" is protected with cash, nothing will change.

I know Wisconsin's offense looked like poetry in motion at times the way they passed and spaced their players. Our offense has no rhyme or reason on the other hand. Chuck up a quick shot at times, try to dump it inside once in awhile...

 

[Jonrn]

Has anyone seen CJF play? I haven't, but I'd be shocked based on Fran's history if he was much better than any other mediocre guard we've had the last 8 years

I predict he’s josh ogelsby 2.0 (mid major talent at the very most)

As long as said coach isn't a female. Cause Gutless Gary loves to put them in their place.

 

[ThunderHawk]

Cook is a terrible shooter. That's a slight problem in the NBA, where everyone else can dunk just as well as he can.

To be fair, it only costs $6.5 million per.

 

[ThunderHawk]

TC will make more money playing for back water Europe teams, than he will with a starter job with a college degree. At least twice as much. He can do that and finish his degree on line, while he gets paid to play basketball. How is this a bad decision?

You really think that dude is in college to get a degree?

Two locks: Cook will never play a second in the NBA, and he'll never possess a degree from the University of Iowa.

It is frustrating, spacing and ball movement could cure many ills.....

Lol, that’s why I call it YMCA.

I don't think TC is stupid. I think it's very likely that he will possess a degree from the U of I.

He does love his buyouts. Voluntary or court ordered.
