I was thinking the same thing initially, but you have to weight that against the level of coaching he is getting and playing for a crap team. His best bet might be just to declare and see where he ends up. I highly doubt he’d be drafted though.
I was listening to Trent Condons podcast (not the radio show he has a separate one) and they were talking about who would leave. He said something to the effect that he was hearing some thing about “key pieces” leaving but declined to go in to it any more deeply saying “I don’t even want to think about that” and then basically went on to name half the roster as people that could leave the team.
If he has NBA aspirations or wants to play in the NCAA tourney it completely makes sense. Look at all the players that transferred to ISU that had to sit out
Never thought of it that way Hawks have their very own version of the "The Producers"
Most want to try to get drafted and maybe get a little guarantee in a contract. Franny ain't going to help with that.
Cook is from Missouri. I know this may be hard for us Cyclone fans to understand, but- Mizzou actually has a lot of kids FROM THE STATE OF MISSOURI on their roster. 
He probably just wants to play with dudes he crossed paths with a lot back in his high school days.

Don’t sleep on Florida.
Even as poor of a year as Iowa is having they really haven't given Cook the keys to the team either. He has flashed but, goes long period with out touching the ball and due to Fran's glut of posts and rotation technique is off the floor as curious times. I could see that leading to him being frustrated after 2 years.
The expectations for next years Iowa team are not high. If a player is going to miss out on the NCAA tourney exposure he needs to play 30+ minutes and put up stats to get attention and raise his stock.
Was Cook the one who talked back to Fran in a huddle a few weeks ago? It's possible Cook has grown to not like Fran. That's a legitimate reason to transfer.
Cuonzo Martin is not a good coach.
There’s a slight difference between grad transfers and guys transferring after their sophomore year who weren’t kicked off the team.
Abdel Nader, Jameel McKay and Deonte Burton, Michael Jacobson and Marial Shayok all transferred after their sophomore year who weren't kicked off the team
Yeah but that isn’t a very high bar. Hell if you’ve ever told someone “hey get in that guys way” when your team is on defense you’ve one upped Fran
Burton and McKay are overseas, the other two are redshirting currently at Iowa State. That was a weird question
