Graham Couch: Iowa Basketball is a mid-major roster

Honestly I do not think there is a front runner for Carton. Anyone that is saying Michigan, OSU, Iowa, Indiana ect. are just speculating at this point.

Everyone loves to think Michigan because of recent success and Beilien calling during a TV interview. Whatever the flavor of the month is is going to get all the attention. I will pay more attention to that stuff when he says he is going to decide. Location is a bigger thing than most people think.

Didn't DJ make it pretty well know that this wasn't the case for him though?

Damn, you all are a hostile bunch with the Hawks around here.

I don't think his comment was even that hostile. Frans kids have had public twitter trantrums. That's generally not the best attitude to add to an already dysfunctional team.
 
No ****?

UM- 35%
OSU- 25%
Iowa- 25%
Indiana- 7%
Xavier- 6%
Marquette- 1%

No ****. If you included all of this well thought out analysis in your previous posts, or even the posts asking if you thought Iowa was in the top four, that could have cleared up your thoughts on the matter. Instead you went with, "Yes".

Very concise but not very descriptive.

So not only is Iowa in the top 4, they are in the top 3 now?


The only time I would include Iowa in the top three of anything would be a discussion of the top basketball programs in the state of Iowa, and they'd be at #3, behind ISU and UNI, and slightly ahead of Drake.
 
I find it quite entertaining that Barta has hitched his wagons to Fran's entitled children. I mean what could go wrong?

Nobody has said Iowa is a front runner

This. Everyone knows that there is 0% chance this kids goes to Iowa except delusional hok fans.

Come on guys fans of a team in a top six think they have a chance all the time. Until he says Iowa is out, Iowa has a chance. It might not be a big one but they do have a shot here. Unlike ISU.
 
Depending if Barta gets involved. The way he quietly did Fran's new contract without telling anyone, he may also be very quietly doing something to increase Iowa's chances of landing Carton. o_Oo_O

And when Hoiberg got all of those transfers nothing was going on at all right. They came to no where USA when the program was down to just build it up right...... see everyone can speculate

I've said it on this board before and I'll say again now. It is a well known fact that he put Iowa in his top 6 to appease family and friends who are hok fans. He has 0 intention of playing for that dumpster fire of a program. It's not going to happen no matter how hard you wish for it.

Pretty sure ISU was the last program in the state to have to quit recruiting a kid due to violations by the coaching staff. Also, wasnt ISU football and mens basketball guilty of major violations as recent as 2013?

No genious we just don't like trolls. Genious. I love it. Just once more genious.

You guys do not like it when someone else does not see your line of thinking. It is crazy to think you guys are that invested in Iowa that there is a 260 page thread on Iowa players and coaching and bad mouthing them for 260 pages. Even the ISU fans that post on hawkeye sites cant make it to 10 page threads.

And it would be a one page thread if genious moron Hawk Trolls stayed the hell away. But, of course, you won't. Think on that, o Thinker Extraordinaire!
