Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

It's been said 100 times before, but it's absolutely worth repeating.... Without all the Iowa kids that were going to Iowa regardless of who the coach was, Fran's recruiting would be atrocious. Like, Lick bad.

I wouldn't go that far, but it hasn't been good.

Why is that worth repeating 101 times?

that is so true, he backed into so many recruits. Many of them legacy recruits who dads played sports at Iowa. The rest were life long hawkeye fans.

The team that had a guy that was declared out for the season, but he shows up to play one game before getting surgery?

I'd show you pictures of who it meant more to, but my friend tells me the mods don't like that.

Because it's the reality of the situation in IC under Fran. The guy can't recruit for **** outside of the borders of Iowa. Tyler Cook being a strange exception. I will credit the guy for the downfall of UNI basketball. He steals their recruits at a very high level.

Yeah, it's remarkable really. At some point soon, the well is going to dry up and then they will have to deal with the consequences of being terrible recruiters.
