Seriously? How can an fan get excited about an eighth place basketball program. Eighth? I guess that would be an improvement over last season. You heard what Deace said and it’s true. Why would a blue chipper ever choose a program the finishes in the bottom have of the league? Someone said in a post last year about how Iowa finished tied with for or five other teams for third or fourth place one season. That’s the optimistic perspective I guess. It also could be said the tied with four or five teams for eighth place, or were just one loss away from finishing in ninth place.
The incoming freshmen are going to have to make a huge contribution this upcoming season or the team, the program, and the fans are effed.
Eighth place program? According to the standings, Iowa is currently tied for 1st in the B1G. Now if they can just keep that up once the games start, this could be a special season!
