Graham Couch: Iowa Basketball is a mid-major roster

[Brandon]

I don’t agree with any of his opinion pieces. It is hard to mess up a statement using basic stats, even for him.

Cherry picking. Cute

 

[SCyclone]

What were Garza’s stats in the game with us?

7 minutes, 2 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist

 

[RedDog]

Why all the talk about Cook? Garza is the stud on the team isn't he?

Yes, Fran's regional powerhouse foundation begins with Garza.

Well we'd better just concede now to the team so good they just about beat a Final 4 team and no doubt will be no less than Elite 8 team from now on. Heard on the way to work that entitled kid #1 got a medical hardship waiver and now has 4 years to play for the team that just about beat a Final 4 team giving Franny an extra year to develop entitled #1 into a NBA dominator...

Oh wait, nevermind........

I don't get paid to evaluate recruits. I think he's really good, and the people that get paid by subscribers like yourself to evaluate recruits think at present he's the 36th best player in his class. Try to be somewhat objective for once.

Did you watch the state tournament? That' all I needed to see.

Sometime in April. THT is going to get a big jump they said not sure on anyone else but I wouldn't be surprised to see Haliburton jump in the top 150 since he's close already and had a strong year

Hey you forgot that Fran ALMOST got Tyler Uhlis

And Calipari is a FOOL for not offering CJ Fredericks!

I think Bohannon is the worst defensive college basketball I've ever seen and that's not me trolling either

Tyrus Mcgee could give him some tips

 

[AuH2O]

So what are your thoughts on Bohannon if he reaches these numbers?



Based on your Talley logic....best PG in the last 30 years of college basketball?

Bohannon - Great shooter, overall very good offensive player, one of the worst defensive guards on a P5 roster. Really good on one end of the floor + absolute hot garbage on the other end = mediocre player

Talley - terrible 3p shooter, plus ball handler and passer, good at penetrating and scoring in the lane or driving and dishing. Destroyed the WVU press in Ames. versatile defender and rebounder. Overall average P5 player.

Overall I think both are pretty average P5 players, albeit quite different. Lucky for us it's basketball and not a game of HORSE, and we are counting on Talley for solid minutes as a guy off the bench, not as a focal point of the team.

Ok, how many players accomplished it dating from when the 3 point shot was created in college basketball until 1992?

It looks like the answer is 0.

All that means is that Bohannon gets most of his points from 3s. Not sure what the big deal there is.

Cal does a p*** poor job of recruiting and developing players for the next level. CJ made a wise decision choosing Fran.

@Gonzo and @Hawkmi1987 do you think Talley and Young were pretty bad too?

No clue what you're talking about.

No clue what you're talking about.

One of your fellow Hawkeye fans said Zoran Talley and Solomon Young were pretty bad this year. Just wanted to know if you agreed or not

I think if Young sticks to his role, he can be very good for the team. He's not really a creator, but has a skill set where he can get some points.

His defense was sorely missed the last few games.

Being on pace for over 700 assists means Bohannon gets most of his points from 3's? Interesting.

Your post makes zero sense. What am I missing?

Are you dense?

You should probably stop talking about basketball after you said Talley and Young were pretty bad. You lost what little credibility you had
