If he’s not a knock down shooter then what is he going to be? I’m really confused by a Weiskamp because Hok fans think he’s Harrison Barnes when he’s rated more like Matt Thomas.

Are you saying he'll be a day one starter or he'll start a game sometime next season?
Seems like he should.
Guess for me it depends on if Iowa has attrition. Can't imagine a bunch of Juniors and Seniors appreciating getting beat out by a Freshman.
He probably will by default, buuuut I enjoyed your predictions last year so I'll keep track of them for next season.
I don't see how Wieskamp isn't a starter. He immediately is one of the most talented kids on the roster. It is not like he is joining a top level team and it isn't like there are great guards he has to beat out.
If the archives go back far enough you could find posts from 2008-2009 in which hawkard fans had Eric May as Harrison Barnes equal.
Good points.
But like I said, it will be interesting for them to see the attrition from this years roster.
He was a dude coming on to a local media show to talk as an expert about the Iowa Hawkeyes. Also, he was the one that said Moss at times plays like a lottery pick........so I guess try to poo poo it all you want but its still someone in U of I's world saying something stupid.
Moss.
JBo, Wieskamp, and Fran Jr will be an improvement on offense.
If we lose Wigginton after next year and only have THT with experience, I bet we could get Moss to grad transfer to play alongside fellow Simeon grad in THT. W
Wasn't he getting the Matt Thomas comparison or was I dreaming that? If he's not overly athletic and not a great shooter what's his strength?
It’s all very confusing. Now it’s looking like Carton is going to be their next Tyler Ulis.
Agreed. Fran radically miscalculated but he is human. In my humble opinion Fran has maxxed out with his style as I see it. He only can get so far yelling and berating kids and officials. I am no Fran Fan, this is an honest assessment from the cheap seats.
Hopefully. If Wigginton stays and Haliburton is ready. Moss will get a lot of suitors as a grad transfer as coaches know how bad Fran is.
I've said this for several years now. Any sign of a player struggling and they get Fran'd. Poor shooting...Fran'd. Appears that you are actually having fun out there...boom... Fran'd

Do you mean that they'll come in third place in his recruitment, but swear that they came in second, and then use a guy they failed to get as evidence that Fran is a recruiting genius for years and years?
Because if that's what you mean, sign me up. I love the Tyler Ulis/Iowa saga. It was great theater. It's just like Romeo and Juliet. Only Juliet is more smitten with Mercutio and Benvolio, and Romeo spends the rest of the play saying "Did you guys see the chick I almost hooked up with?" Also there's poison.
