Iowa Basketball Recruiting

I compared a freshman who struggled mightily in his first game to another freshman who struggled mightily in his first game. Obviously he isn't going to be as good as Morris. Geez some of you guys are sensitive.

People compare players all the time. People compare our recruits and freshman to very good players all the time. It doesn't mean people are exactly equating their talent and skill level exactly and to assume they are is a logical fallacy.


Monte didn't struggle mightily in his first game.

He struggled a bit against BYU because Kane fouled out. We still won.

Lol Iowa played out of their mind last year and still couldn't win. And that team was much better than this Iowa team.

Iowa just lost to Seton Hall who would be lucky to make the NIT. At home. This will be the 2014 game all over again.
Yeah, right. Seton Hall won the Big East last year and has 4 starters back plus a 5th year transfer guard. Your basketball knowledge is impressive

Yeah after thinking about it more, they'll be an NIT team. Still can't spin it as anything other than a bad loss for Iowa though. Of couse, that's if their aspirations are the NCAA Tournament.

And they didn't win the Big East. They won the conference tournament. They finished 3rd. And that was with Isiah Whitehead. There are 4 Big East teams better than them right now that I've seen.
 
I can't wait until they play Virginia a week from today. They are going to eat Iowa alive.
 
From what I saw, Iowa will do better against the Purdue's of the world than smaller guard orientated teams. You could drain spaghetti with their defense. If they plug that up a bit they won't be that bad. On offense, shut down Jok and they have problems. Need another go to guy.
 
I wish someone could quantify Jok's net impact on a game. The guy can score, but my goodness is he disinterested in guarding.
 
What a pathetic ******* crowd for two teams that will be on the bubble (and that's no disrespect, I think it's the truth).
The camera shots that showed the empty seats behind the hoops were embarrassing.
What, no free pizza and ice cream tonight?

Iowa fans should be ashamed. Pathetic.

They'll be there in force for #Superbowl.

Yeah, not even that.

Here is a 100% quote from Mike Hlas:

"But the fans, perhaps forgetting New Jersey’s Seton Hall was an actual team from an actual conference (the Big East, with a team you may recall named Villanova), mostly stayed home Thursday night rather than trekking to Carver-Hawkeye Arena."
